How Do Those on T3 or Combo Therapy Navigate TSH Obsessed Doctors
And is it inevitable that being on T3 always leads to very low or suppressed
TSH
. I've also had it just on Levo. I dont think my feedback loop works 😧

Another Cholesterol question
The link given by shaws explains the relationship between
TSH
and cholesterol. My question is this - can anyone explain what this statement taken from the article means ?

Cognitive disorder in older adults
Just thought I'll share so that everybody might be prepared for another reason to treat the
TSH
and not the patient (beside bone and heart trouble reasons).

Can a change in batch be the reason my thyroid hormones have dropped so low?
I was on 100mcg a day at the end of November and my results were
TSH
- 0.011 (0.27-4.2) Free T4 - 21.6 (12-22) (96%) Free T3 - 5.8 (3.1-6.8) ((73%) I thought the T4 was a bit high and I was having some mild palpitations so I reduced to 4 Days 75 mcg and 3 days 100mcg.

TSH Reducing
Doc rang with recent blood test results, which included
TSH
, said to be on the low side of normal at 0.29. My
TSH
reading has therefore steadily reduced over the past 12 months.

Results came back today:
TSH
4.37 (0.3-4.2) T4: 13.8 (9-19) T3: 4.6 (3-5.4) really hope the doctors won’t argue about an increase to 75mcg 😠I feel so shoddy doing even minimal increases so will have to do 2 weeks of 62.5mcg first

Livaglutide and TSH
I read in the news today that weight loss jabs eg. Livaglutide are to be offered on apps without the need to visit a doctor. I remembered reading that Thyroid Cancer could be a possible side effect and in trying to read more about how thyroid hormones were involved came across the following research

What to ask Endo?
I can now see that my
TSH
is very slow to respond to dose changes and my FT4 and FT3 were in range by May 22 but my
TSH
took months to catch up. When I finally saw my Endo in December he reduced my dose to 5mg.
