Sub-clinical Hyperthyroidism
Hi everyone - the thyroid can be a mean beast! And the endocrine system is complicated. I was diagnosed in 2017 (not Graves) and after a year under the endo my carbimazole dose was fixed at 5mg and 10mg on alternate days. I was discharged to GP care. After that, every 6 month blood test showed TSH and

Hi you lovely lot I don’t post much but really appreciate the knowledge and expertise shown on this site. I read all posts and research as much as I possibly can to manage my condition. So, I’m currently on 100mcg levo prescribed by GP somewhat reluctantly. I was taking 125mcg for a while as I thought

I’ve just had my results back, I’m due to see my dr next week and would like to have some understanding of them. For reference I have Hashimotos, am gluten and dairy free, my vitamins and iron are ok after a long time working on them. I’m on 2 grains of Armour and have been on this dose for 6 weeks.

Why would my FT4 change?
Hi, My thyroid has been ok for some years now, I have generally felt quite well. A recent GP blood test flagged up that my FT4 is at the bottom of the range. I am currently taking 120mg of NDT, I was on 240mg for many years but was told I must reduce my dosage as my TSH was 0.05. I reduced the dosage

Back again !!
On 8th April 2024 I had a blood test as I was feeling tired and generally under par, tested my TSH 3.7 ( 0.27-4.2) T4 12.6 (12-22) so my dr increased my Levothyroxin to 75mcg. I felt a little bit better but had another blood test on 5th June and my result was TSH 3.01 and my T4 13.7 I'm feeling tired

? T3 and TSH
So, I've written before, and I started taking only T3. At about 100-125mcg per day all at once in the morning (bc my principal concern is my immune system. Also energy, etc). I went to the ER the other day bc of a bad reaction to Paxlovid, I had presumed covid (multiple close contacts, ie, my kids

Blood test results
Hi,I started levothyroxine (25mcg) approx 6 weeks ago after diagnosis. Bloods retested today and TSH is 5.1. Previous results were 7 and 8.I have an appointment with the GP this week and presume they will want to increase the dose. Pathology investigation report on the blood test suggests undertreatment

Hello everyone! I am diagnosed with hypothyroidism and take Levothyroxine 100mg. I don't feel well at all, but I also have other health problems: lupus, Sjogren's, Henoch's purpura, neutropenia... I have a lot of symptoms and pains that I don't know where they are coming from, but fibromyalgia and depression

Latest blood tests - low T3
What to do next? Advice welcome please 🙏 Hi all, I 've been on 75 mcg levo for about 9 weeks. Results since January show conversion mostly dropping as I increase Levo. I just retested, after waiting a few weeks to see if symptoms settled. Test results in photo. Endo could see conversion wasn't good

Thyroid feels sore but I am on my normal amount despite my last TSH being 0.02.
Recently my blood test showed TSH 0.02 with normal T4 and T3. The doctor tried to drop my medication but I stood my ground. However I have developed sore thyroid over the last few days. Could it be too much levothyroxine as the doctor said.

Advice please!
Hi, I am feeling rather unwell, but my blood tests are 'ok' so just wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I'm also very down in the dumps about it. I had Hashimotos 25 years ago, and after a long and difficult fight, managed to get my dose of Levothyroxine to 150/175mcg alternate days. Twice when
