Total thyroidectomy, remnants and euthroyx.
Hi, My latest results on 75mg Euthroyx TSH - 1.32 mlu/l (0.27 - 4.20) FT4 - 21 pmol (12-22 pmol).

What percentage is this T4 results?
Thia is my daughter's t4 result from a private health check she has just paid for. Her TSH was 4.5. I have been trying to persuade her to increase her levothyroxine given that her GP doesn't seem to know much but she has held off until now. She is going to her GP again now with me advising her to be

just below normal Vit D symptoms
My husband has been suffering fatigue, low mood, and poor sleep over the last few months. Quite comprehensive blood tests only showed that his D3 level is just insufficient at 49, when acceptable levels should be 50+. Is it possible that his symptoms could be down to his D level? GP recommended he supplements

Annual TF test
It's been a while since had to battle with GP after they reduced Thyroxine to 75 resulting in a return to many of the old symptoms over 6 month period. Your help and advice at that time was invaluable. Resolved after full blood screen confirmed no other issues and speaking with senior GP who was

Strange Result
I recently did my thyroid tests.2.1.24 Monitor My Health taking 87.5 mcg levothyroxine, 12.5 mcg liothyronine for the last 8 weeks. TSH 0.02 mu/L FT3 4.3 pmol/L 32.43% FT4 18.7 pmol/L 67% Based on these results, I decided that I should be able to make a bigger step in my liothyronine to 25 mcg. Typically

Really low TSH
Hi, I have been on Levothyroxine for about 2 years. I started at 25mcg and have now been worked up to 100mcg. I had a recent TSH check and it’s come back as 0.05. I asked at the reception and was told this result but there was no one to discuss it with. I was called by a nurse the following day. They

Suppressed TSH but hypo symptoms
Cold turkey stopped levothyroxine (synthroid) 200mcg for 17 days in Nov 2022. Prior, felt great. Went back on 200mcg right away and had every hyperthyroid symptom, it was hell. (tsh 0.04 FT4 18 (9-19)) I have been trying to find my dosage ever since. Titrated from 125mcg, 150mcg, 175mcg, 200mcg.

Frequency of testing
Hello all,I'm sure this has been answered 100 times, but I'm having difficulty finding the information. My question is how quickly do TSH, T3, and T4 numbers react to a change of medication dose. 8 weeks? 12 weeks? Does TSH react more quickly than T3 and T4? I ask specifically because 6 weeks ago

T3 and T4
Hi all Happy New year! I have recently started taking t3 alongside t4, has been t4 only for 30 years. I am currently taking 50 t4 and 2 x T3 5mcg daily. I reduced slowly following advice on here and must admit for a few days I felt good on 75 t4 and 1x t3 but continued to reduce t4 as advised by endo

Getting off Thyroxin
My last blood in April was all normal, this was the very first in 20 years to be completely normal. 20 years ago I was put onto 120mg of thyroxin after a bout of quinsy along with an intense and stressful year along with a 50lb weight gain. I know it doesn't suit everyone but I lost all my weight gain

UPDATE How to gradually reduce dosage of desiccated thyroid (armour)?
A couple of weeks ago I posted asking about how would you go about reducing medication for genetic hypothyroidism. I was on 6 grains of Armour Thyroid which concerts roughly to 54mcg of t3 and 228mcg of T4. On this dosage I get in the higher quarter/ third of range for t3 and despite my average heart
