Help with blood test results
Hi.Can anyone advise me on my latest blood
test
results TSH 0.01(0.40-4.90mn/L)
T4
12.02 (9-22) T3 3.02 Doctor will not increase dosage of Thyroxine due to low TSH although I am still experiencing symptoms of Hypo, tired, hairloss, muscle aches. Is the Dr correct?

Endocrine appt
Hi, I have an appointment to see an endocrine consultant in a few weeks. Referred from my GP. Interactive thyroid from 2016 and I started taking T3 a couple years after diagnosis and still do. When I have routine bloods I lower my dose or stop T3 for a few days. Sometimes it comes up in the bloods as

T4/3 combo
I’ve been taking Armour Thyroid for over 20 years. Previously on NHS but we moved house to a different area and new GP wouldn’t even discuss it. Armour Thyroid is now very expensive and not easy to obtain. I’m concerned about the long term importing and prescribing issues. Long scenario but now under

T3 only treatment experiences please
Hello, Looking to hear from anyone that has tried t3 only treatment? It’s been suggested I try it. I have PCOS which can cause thyroid hormone resistance which maybe explains why T4 at any dose causes awful issues and my t3 doesn’t budge at all. My t4 before starting levo has always been fine &

Borderline results but feel dreadful!
Hi everyone, I would love some advice! I went to my doctors as ever since having my youngest child (nearly 4 years ago) I haven’t ever felt back to normal. I keep going back to GP (see a different one each time unfortunately) and feel slightly fobbed off. Last GP tested thyroid and hormone levels.

Rang my GP got a blood
test
last week. Results: TSH: 2.91 (0.35-5.5)
T4
: 13.9 (10.5-21.0) I’m tested annually anyway and results from January 2023: TSH: 1.94 T4: 15.7 ranges as above. GP says I’m in range still and he wants to test for for diabetes, anemia and look at menopause.

Another iron IV/hydro post - been in hospital last night
Hey all,I had iron infusion on Monday. During it, I had anaphylactic shock (tight chest, couldn't breathe) and was injected with 100 mg hydrocortisone (thanks to this, they were able to finish the IV). I woke up on Tuesday morning feeling incredibly warm and with a lot of energy. My vision got sharper

I've just got results of my T3: 4.09 (2.00 - 4.40). I feel OK so just wondering if I should leave well alone? I take 25mcg T3 and 75mcg T4.

How stable should TSH be?
Hi. I have a few things going on that I'm getting checked by the GP, but they keep refusing to check my T4 level so I have gone privately - thanks to advice on this forum. In the meantime, I'm trying to make sense of the data I do have. How widely should TSH vary in someone who has been taking the same

Sorry! Where is the thyroid meds list?
Hi there, I didn’t get on with Morningside T3 but get on fine with Thybon Henning. Problem is, I take 2.5mcg doses and splitting this from a 20mcg tablet isn’t easy. Can someone please point me in the direction of the list of different types of T3? I’d like to avoid one with Acacia as didnt get on well

Standoff Between GP & Pharmacist
I find managing by hypothyroidism very challenging, but I the do best on Accord (Actavis) Thyroxine, and a few years ago when I was under a consultant who despite his best efforts, really struggled to get me at the correct dosage, I was advised not to switch brands. If I do have a different brand, I

Oestrogen dominance & poor T3 conversion
I’m interested to get any information on oestrogen dominance and it’s impacts on thyroid especially with the conversion of T4 into T3 thyroid hormone, which leads to low T3 levels.
