Thyroid blood tests February 2023-February 2024.
Hi again I have been lucky to get an earlier blood test 9am as advised.During the last year I have had two private full panel tests,one Thyroid test on its own plus one GP bloods.This is not because I can afford it but not getting any where with my GP.They never listen to symptoms just numbers and ranges

Hi there, I was just wondering if a thyroid antibody level of 822 is quite high? My T4 is 9.6 and TSH is 12.04 Have been on Levothroxine 50mg for nearly 6 weeks so awaiting another blood test to see if it’s helped bring the levels down. I haven’t had a chance to discuss the antibody result with

🤷🏻♀️ Sudden jump up in T4
Morning all 😉 I have Hashimoto’s and have had radio active iodine treatment over 16 years ago so have been on Levothyroxine since. I’m familiar with all the testing and get regularly tested by my GP. I also private test occasionally to check my T3 as my local area do not test that on the NHS. I

Book on hypothyroidism as I wait for Levo to kick in?
Hi all, and thanks for having me here. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in October and started on 25mg Levo per day. Last week I saw my GP for (I think) an unrelated matter. She looked at my blood results from December (TSH 2.35, down from 4.39 in October, and T4 9.2, up from 7.9 in October) and

Starting on Armour
Starting on Armour for first time tomorrow, I have been told to take 1/2 grain at 8am and 1/4 grain at 3pm. According to the Thyroid Pharmacists conversion table that is equivalent to 75 levo, I am currently only on 50 levo which I have been told to stop while I trial the Armour. I tried 75 levo 3

I told

advice please
hi. I have started with stomach acid issues and achey muscles, tingly hands and increased anxiety (which was already severe).
