Almost 9 months post Radioactive therapy and still not feeling good
I am currently taking 50 levothyroxyn daily and per my endocrinologist my
TSH
should drop further in the next 3 weeks until he sees me again - Goal is to drop it to 1.50 where I feel the best.

Increased anxiety…
My last blood tests showed I was under-medicated, with a low
tsh
. I’ve booked to see a thyroid specialist and will be having a whole raft of tests done in the next couple of weeks (I think ….thyroid, cortisol, vitamins, sex hormones). The problem is - anxiety.

Sore, swollen lips; lethargy and weakness
When I was first diagnosed with low thyroid, I had low
TSH
, low T4 and low T3. Endo suspected pituatory tumor, but CT Scan showed all clear. My GP friend mentioned parathyroid issues.... anyone got any insight on testing etc for that condition?

Gp just called about NDT at Newcastle 🤦
Hi everyone ❤️ Firstly feeling good stomach wise on the rosway labs NDT 👍 as I said I don't expect to be doing cartwheels down the road just yet😂 because I still fell tired and fatigued, obviously my
TSH
was 45.66 on May 31st so I reckon it's going to take some time for me to start to get some energy

Back to life thanks to this forum! GP Next steps though - further levo increase?
My
TSH
is down but should that be lower still? I do feel so much better but I understand if you are correctly medicated on levo you should be nearer 1-2
TSH
?
I have a further GP apt this week to discuss next steps but they are seemingly being led by me. Should I ask for another levo increase?

T3 prescription
I have spent the last 3 years asking gp for endo referral to be told
tsh
is fine. I'm at my whits end with weight gain! 5ft 2 and 16stone 7lbs I've had enough not to mention the brain fog and rubbish hair and nails. 9 years I've tried every suggestion that's been posted to me on here.

Possible to be both Hyperthyroid & Hypothyroid?
My GP said that as my
TSH
is 1.44 I'm in the sweet spot and an increase isn't required. She then went on to inform my that I had been Hyperthyroid initially and now Hypothyroid.. is that even possible?

Levothyroxine and Propranolol
GP has requested lowering of fT4 due to very low
TSH
. fT4 has been lowered from about 20 to 16 with a minimal increase in
TSH
. However, I am of the opinion that my metabolism is running more slowly than perhaps it should, and has been for many years.
