Hypothyroid muscle aches
I have been sub-clinically hypothyroid for at least 14 years, based on my medical records, and was was treated for hypothyroid when my T4 dipped below range for a short while. Stopped when back into bottom of range and T4 always remained low. My TSH was normally around 4.5 - 5. When I asked for treatment

Poor GP response for years!
Hello. First time poster here Long story short I have been taking Levothyroxine for around 8 years and within this time I have had a constant battle with my GP to manage my symptoms. Unfortunately I have found that it does depend on which GP you get as to whether they will increase Levothyroxine.

tsh ‘suppressed’ but I want to stay on 125mcg levo. Thoughts?
Morning all! Just had results back from gp thyroid panel (so only tsh and t4). 23rd April Tsh: 0.2 (range 0.27-4.2) T4: 15.9 (10.5-24.5) I’d asked for an increase in levo from 100-125mcg and had been taking the increased dose for around 10 weeks when I had this test. Here are my previous results

tsh too low on levo dose
Hi, I was trialling an increase of levo from 125 to 150. My tsh dropped from 1.6 to 0.09 ( range 0.27-0.42) and gp put me back down to 125. My t4 went from 22.5 just above normal range ( 12-22) to 25.5. Gp didn’t test t3 this time ( or the results aren’t back for it ) but my previous t3 was 3.6 when

How to change from T3 only to T4?
I'm currently self medicating on 50mcg Tiromel and have been for a few years. My doctor prescribed me 75 mcg Eutirox 5 x week and 88 on the weekends. It just wasn't working for me, so after a lot of reading I assumed I was just someone with a faulty conversion gene and decided to try alternatives.

Help with results appreciated
Hi everyone, It's been a while since I had full TFTs etc so I was surprised to see some of the results, especially compared to last time (2020). The TSH is lower than in 2020 (when it was 3.7), the Free T4 is slightly higher (16.2 in 2020), but the Free T3 is lower than it was (5.24). My B12 results

Thyroid Functions
Hello,I have been investigating the above recently via this forum and elsewhere. It concerns me that I take two medications that have an effect on Levothyroxine. Omeprazole 20mg daily, taken before bed and Propranolol 30mg taken twice daily usually before breakfast and before bed. Levothyroxine, 200mcg

Blue Horizon Thyroid Genetic Test results
Afternoon, My Blue Horizon Thyroid Genetic Panel results have arrived after a long wait and I’d appreciate some help understanding them. I undertook the test to check my DIO1 and DIO2 status, both of which appear ‘normal’ (no inherited defects). However, three variants are flagged up in either red

So I decided to check my blood before starting a trail of 50mcg of Levothyroxine. I tested at 6.20 am compared to my usual later time of 10am. I’m confused because the morning before I ended up in A&E from taking too many pain killers and they tested my blood around the same time. My results are greatly
