Test results help
In UK my
TSH
is 0.21 m/U/L. Doc says it's fine but I'm not sleeping & have excess hair loss again. I've seen optimal range for healthy adults at 0.5-1.0 but that in uIU/mL so I'm confused. Is my
TSH
reading then showing too low or high & do I need to lower my levo meds and or up them?

A few months back his T4 was low normal and
TSH
was around 2.75, but the GP didn’t think his thyroid was a problem.

thyroid results
hi there please can someone help me understand my results from a recent thyroid function test:
tSH
levels were 4.63 mu/L which indicates it’s high Thyroxine levels were 13.3 pmol/L and it’s saying that’s normal Triiodothyronine levels 4.4pmol/L levels normal The indication is that I don’t need treatment

Rapidly gaining weight.
My latest test results were
tsh
2.11 ( 0.5 -4.4 ) and t4 12.1 ( 8.9 - 17.3) I'm still on 50 and 75 mg of levothyroxaine every other day. I was meant to speak to the consultant last month but due to the strikes will not get a review since my last my last appointment in Oct, for 6 months.

T3 and Afib
My
tsh
only test hospital took is 1.98 in range. Range on blood test is 0.04-4 I saw cardiologist should have seen the EP but it said one of his team, he said an ablation was not really necessary as I manage my symptoms. And until my thyroid sorted I would just go back in.

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.

New blood results - advice on whether to speak to GP?
I understand that the nhs has a wide range for “normal” thyroid function, and that my
TSH
is technically acceptable… basically I’m not too sure how to proceed with these and whether my GP will take my concerns seriously. Thank you very much!

T4 and T3 optimal 3 hours after thyroid meds, I feel great, but suppressed TSH is throwing a spanner in the works.
Can anyone recommend any academic papers please that would help me support my case - i.e., T3 and T4 show I am not overmedicated,
TSH
less relevant? I know we all have our own personal set point. Personally, I know that when my
TSH
was only 2.87 I felt like death.

TSH/T4 Ranges - Change?
Hi there, my friend has a
TSH
which is 32.9 and T4 is 5,2 and has been told this is normal by the GP practice. I don't see how they can even attempt to state this. I just wondered if the ranges had been changed, as my friend's results do not show this information? We live in South Cumbria.

TSH
<0.01 mU/L (0.3 - 4.2) Interestingly, the laboratory now states that my
TSH
result is Satisfactory and No Further Action. The tests were done at 8:30am and I followed the guidelines.

How to approach GP to get private endocrinologist referral?
My
TSH
is good however my T3 and T4 indicate that I could do with more levothyroxine or some T3 medication. Anyone else been through this process? Thanks in advance.

what to ask GP
TSH
was 4.89 ( range 0.27-4.2). Last week I had them re done and they were T4 15.7 ( range 11-22) and my
TSH
was 5.43 ( range 0.27-4.2). The tests were taken 24 hours after my last Levothyroxine tablet at 9am and I stopped supplementing ( vit D and b12 spray ) one week before.

Feeling symptomatic
Had bloods done last week and even though I requested full thyroid bloods they’ve only come back with the
TSH
which 2.55 (range 0.4-5). I’ve made an appointment with the doctor to discuss and ask for an increase. Am I likely to get an increase or will I have to argue this?
