Post Thyroidectomy and a confused GP
TSH
8.19 mIU/L (0.570 - 3.600) 251.5% Free T4 (fT4) 12.4 pmol/L (≤ 14) My results are as above , had a call from my GP who doesn’t understand my test results and is referring me to an endo. I’m post RAI (2006) post thyroidectomy (March 2024) on 125 micrograms Levo daily.

First lab results after returning to T4 mono therapy. Comments and suggestions welcome.
In previous T4 only days, with a low
TSH
I would've reduced T4 dosage by 12 mcg. So, now, theoretically I should take 75 instead of 88. I used to do well with 40/50 percent ft3/ft4.

T3 dosing advice
Or with the
TSH
being low would I increase the T3 whilst dropping the levo to 75mcg? I prefer my T4 sitting where it is at 18ish but worried about being "hyper" if I increase T3 and leave the levo dose. Thanx!

Off meds my
TSH
can vary from 8-4 within a week which doesn’t seem classic of hypothyroid? And my prolactin levels do the same. My cortisol saliva levels also seem to be up and down like a yo-yo.

Tsh 4.02 and t4 15.7
This result is a friends from 3 years ago .should someone euthyroid have
tsh
below 1 ? And so could they have been in first stages of hypothyroidism 3 years ago with these results . Therefore is it worth having bloods done again now . If you get my drift Thank you for advice and help 🙏

suppressed TSH and high FT4
My
TSH
was suppressed, which it has been for years and this time FT4 was 17.8 (range 7.9-14.4) so I reduced down to 100 every day. In May my FT4 went up to 19.3, so the opposite to what it should have done by reducing my dose.

Blood results help
Hi I have had blood test
tsh
is one (range 0.4 to 5) and T4 is 14 ( range is 9 to 19). Also had an ultrasound which showed altered echotexture but no enlargement of thyroid. Are these results OK? Have symptoms of underactive thyroid but results all in range. Thanks

Carbimazole causing very short period cycles (+ rapid drop in t4 on low dose)
My T4 was the highest it had been (38 pmol/L ) and my
TSH
less than 0.01 so I agreed to go on a small dose of Carbimazole (10mg per day) Within 5 weeks, my next bloods showed my T4 dropped well into normal (14 pmol/L) though my
TSH
is still less than 0.01.

Thyroid, HRT
I asked blood technician if
TSH
, T3 and T4 were all being tested she said only
TSH
, I went to reception to ask for the T3 and T4 to be tested, I was told they have a new system and its a thyroid panel test and it tests
TSH
, T3 and T4 now if this is correct I think my GP surgery is doing well as I know

1st blood tests since Levothyroxine
My last bloods are below and my
tsh
is now slightly higher than it was as previous test. A dr commented that I am on the correct medication (at 25 micrograms) but I thought I was meant to be aiming for
tsh
of 1?
