I had a thyroid blood test. While my tsh and t4 are within range (t3 borderline low) as I am for 7 months now on Levotyroxine that appears to work.The anti-tg antibodies are now high (at 570 IU/ml) and it is first time that they were tested. I do not know how long I had the antibodies as my symptoms

Biotin interference with Thyroid bloodwork
I am due for follow up blood work and just remembered that biotin interferes with the test results. How far in advance must I quit taking my B complex which has 100% daily requirement of Biotin? My last TSH a few months ago was .03, super low for me. I usually run between 1.5 and 2. But my FT4 was

Hello everyone,I would really appreciate any advice regarding my latest fasting blood tests, done before taking my Levothyroxine tablet. I am still on 75mcg Levothyroxine since diagnosed with Hashimoto's in 2010. After my latest post, around Nov 2022, I followed the advice I was given and started taking

These are the results I received the other day. The TSH seems ok but I’m not sure about the others. Tgey all say within norm but to me the ferritin seems too low. If that’s the case what should I take! I did ask fir vitamins to be checked but these are all she did

Oestradial HRT & the thyroid, Lenzetto blood tests
I just wondered if low oestradial affects the thyroid? I have been on HRT since March and my level is still only 197 pmol/L. I use 3 sprays of Lenzetto. I wondered if it could be affecting my thyroid function? I don’t have menopause symptoms, I had bottom of range testosterone, but this is now in range

Misdiagnosed for 30 years !!!
well, in my last post I told how I had lost over 4 st in 12 months and my GP said it was down to my thyroid. But I couldn’t get an Endo appointment for 4 months. So I decided to see a private Endocrinologist. what he told me shocked me to the core and now I am so confused I don’t know what to do. He

ESR blood test
just wondering whether anyone knows if Thyroxine affects ESR blood test results. Having taken higher dose of thyroxine for a few weeks now my TSH has reduced considerably from 4.62 to 1.6 but an ESR blood test was done at the same time and is now above the reference range and registered at 24.

13 months post thyroidectomy fatigue
I can't seem to find the right dose. Hair loss, dry skin, puffy face, sirens in ears!, severe fatigue.
I was on 75 for 4 days, 88 three days. TSH was 1.16. Up from .69. I felt better and then BAM after 8 weeks terrible body spasms, and more. TSH was 6.01! Doctors: back to 88 for 6 days and 75

Help, need your help
My TSH is .37 so I am low. Do I need to take a higher dose of Synthroid or a lower dose of Synthroid. I can’t remember how that works. My T3 and T4 are within normal ranges.

Do My Symptoms Have Anything To Do With My Lowered Levo?
I am getting so fed up. The doctor put my Levo down from 100mcg to 75mcg a few months ago, she wouldn’t have it that I felt better on a higher dose. I’m pretty sure I talked about this previously in a post. But lately my digestion has been bad, I am so tired in the afternoon that I’m yawning a lot

Dr Alan Christianson - Iodine Controlled Diet
Hi, Does anyone follow Dr Alan Christianson on social media or read any of his material? I find his video's very very informative and enjoy his content. He seems to be a very big supporter of an iodine controlled diet, and thyroid disease can be controlled by regulating iodine intake as appose to thyroid

strange thyroid blood results
my wife is subclinical Hypo, been on 1 grain of Thyroid-S for the past couple of years. Started HRT in Aug 2023, blood test done in Dec, numbers had gone down, increase to 2 grain. Last bloodwork done Mar 2024. Numbers gone down again but TSH is now suppressed. I’m completely confused. Any thoughts
