tsh undetectable
When I express that I was told by the thyroid GP I saw privately that this is normal to have the low
tsh
. He said this is rubbish. I am not sure what to do! Thanks 😊

Fasting home blood test
These are the results: [u]18/03/24:[/u]
TSH
: 4.47 (0.27-4.2) (20/02/24: 5.37) FT4: 15 (12-22) (20/02/24: 13.8) FT3: 4.1 (3.1-6.8) TPO: 9 IU/mL (under 35 is normal) I admit I'm surprised that
TSH
is lower on the most recent fasting test than the previous afternoon test which followed a breakfast

How to raise nutrients up - Hypothyroid
down (currently skirts at top and over
TSH
range) I also need to address my poor nutrient levels - just about in range but on the floor so the GP will have brushed over them and why I didn't take them as seriously as I should have.

T3 prescription
I have spent the last 3 years asking gp for endo referral to be told
tsh

Conundrum
Bloods showed low
TSH
. I know many people function best with low
TSH
but my sweet spot is between 2 and 3.
TSH
0.21 (0.35-4.95) FT4 12.2 (9-19.1) GP recommended stopping levo due to very unpleasant symptoms and having bloods redone in 6 weeks.

Levothyroxine interfering with periods?
Hi, I have been on 50 levothyroxine for around a year as my blood readings showed subclinical hypothyroid around 5
TSH
. This reduced the
TSH
to 1.9 without side effects but my latest reading was 4.44 and I was tired again so they upped to 75 8 weeks ago.

ESR blood test
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. My previous ESR test was only 4. Any help appreciated. Thank you

She is fixated on
TSH
and keeps trying the you'll get cancer, heart trouble lie. After results in Feb still wouldn't change, by this time I was feeling less OK. Other things are going on and I am not feeling well or happy at all.

Help with results - what would you do?
How do I persuade the endocrinologist and or GP that the risks of a suppressed
TSH
are well worth it for quality of life I get? For the record, I weigh 82.5 kg - GP had me on 75mcg of thyroxine and wanted to reduce it due to
TSH
being too low. My
TSH
loves to see-saw but stays lowish.

Thyroid ranges for teen
I've only got the
TSH
result, and it's come back normal at 0.87 (levels 0.51-4.3). Or am I safe to assume those would be the youngster levels they've used (if they are in fact different to adults)? TIA

hives after starting levothyroxine
My
TSH
level was 5.38 and for fertility reasons I needed it to be 2.5. Levothyroxine has done the trick and I’m now 2.45. I have recently developed a raised rash all over my body that is so itchy. Does anyone have any experience of this or solutions?
