sudden drop in thyroid results!!
I recently had some health concerns which are still being investigated, in the meantime a new symptom of swollen face has occurred and I seem to of gained all the weight I just lost. I got some thyroid results today and was shocked to see how they have decreased when I usually have a steady result.

What about the patients?
This poster abstract describes the attitudes of medics as to the frequency of T4 or T4/T3 medication in a multi-country accumulation of data. The medics are satisfied that only a very few patients needed T3. But what did the patients think? This is yet another study designed for the benefit of prescribers

55 year old hypo diagnosed 20+ years ago, family history of hypo ( nan, mum and sister) . I also have vitiligo from my early 20s. I was tested for dry eyes when I was a teenager , so I think I've been hypo a long time.
Oct 23 GP bloods showed TSH 0.1, T4 18.9.

New Thyroid Results - Conversion Issue?
Hi, After an emotional Thyroid rollercoaster these past couple years (post partial thyroidectomy 12/2/21 in combination with an Endo who doesn't believe in compounded medication), I finally seem to be settling into a medication and dose that works okay. I'd have to say that I'm still a bit tired and

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

Recent blood results, help interpreting
Hi everyone, I haven't posted in a while, but would like my latest blood results checked with the knowledgable people on here. I've been on a treatment of 125mcg of Levothyroxine and alternating days of 5mcg and 7mcg of liothyronine. I have been feeling better on this dose, and was slightly too highly

Weight gain on Levo
I never used to have issues with my weight and happily stayed around 63kg until my symptoms kicked off and I got up to 96kg! I’ve kept a close eye on my weight since starting 50mcg Levo in Feb 2022 and can see that I gained another 4kg in weight which stayed the same even when increasing to 75mcg.

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

Oct 2023 report says that to avoid heart problems in later life keep TSH and Free T4 at these levels; please advise if this is correct?
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S2213858723002279.
The findings from checking patient records is that the lowest risk of heart disease in elderly people is when they have:
Free T4 between 13.5 -14.8 pmol/L
TSH between 1.9 - 2.9 mIU/L
Can anyone

Should I reduce dose slightly? T3/T4 combination therapy
Hello lovely people. I recently had my bloods done and met with my endocrinologist, and wanted to ask your thoughts. I am currently on 87.5mcg Levothyroxine and 25mcg T3 daily. I feel better than I have in a long time, though possibly slightly anxious (difficult to tell though as I am prone to anxiety
