Free T4 high, what to do? Also IR
4.2) Free T3 = 3.80 (pmol/L) or 2.47 (ng/dl)
(ref. value 3.13 - 6.76 OR 2.04 - 4.40)
Also rather worrying: HA1c = 6.0 (pointing toward diabetes 2 and insuline resistance)
I weigh 62 kilos for 1m70 almost never eat sugar (also not the hidden types) Had a total
thyroidectomy

Ideas please
I had a total
thyroidectomy
20 years ago for a massive goitre. I had been taking levothyroxine for 20 years prior to the surgery. The idea being that giving me the meds would stop the goitre growing but it didn't work.

thyroid issues and a fibs???
I have been hypothyroid most of my life and have to take synthroid, due to a partial
thyroidectomy
in my twenties. I am now 69 and have recently developed a fibs. I also might have apnea; am getting a sleep study done soon...... Are either of these conditions related to a fibs??

Weaning off proprananol
Hello everyone,I have Graves disease and had a
thyroidectomy
in June 2022.I am having conversion problems ,even with a very over-range T4.I know proprananol can reduce T4 to T3 conversion and am looking to try and wean off it. My GP put me on 20mg 3x a day as a migraine preventative.

Total thyroidectomy - anyone have a positive story ?
Hey everyone - I’m very nervous about having a total
thyroidectomy
in mid February. I have seen so many horror stories. Do any of you have an experience that didn’t turn sour ?

Levothyroxine brands
Since the
thyroidectomy
I just keep gaining weight and am now at 73kgs. I know I do not overeat and eat as healthily as possible and exercise. Recent Medichecks showed all ok and that even my TSH had begun to register. I am on Accord Levo alternating daily 75 and 100 .

Low Dose Naltrexone
( just for background I developed a goitre in 2021, biopsy came back inconclusive so I had a partial
thyroidectomy
2/3rds removed, started levothyroxine but despite my dose increasing my antibodies are still off the chart and my symptoms haven’t improved)

Endo no longer wants to see me.
Total
thyroidectomy
was done in July 2022. My endo said I no longer need to go to him anymore and any scripts I can just get from my local doctor. He wouldn't discuss the long term prognosis of the thyroid tissue regrowth.

Thyroid ups & downs
I had a total
thyroidectomy
in France in 2012 & I still don't understand what changes occur in the body which require my dose of levoythyroxine to be increased or decreased when I haven't got a thyroid in the first place !

Low 9am cortisol?
My 9am blood cortisol has been tested a few times now and the last three tests have been 142nmol/L | 172nmol/L | 192nmol/L (I suspect the most recent one is higher due to having an extremely stressful time before it) I have had a total
thyroidectomy
and take Levo and T3 and my latest results are TSH

anyone help with article that states that it is not alright to prescribe different doses of Liothyronine on alternate days?
reference regarding this unorthodox prescribing of T3 in split different doses I can send to him to support my case against this splitting of the T3 like this as I feel awful on it and suspect my Levo is too low as guidelines state it should be 1.6 - 1. 8mcg per Kilo of body weight for those post
