Frequent injuries when exercising.
TSH
0.01, FT4 16.1, FT3 4.6, both 41% through range. Vit D 85. I find if I do even pilates, ligaments and bursae get easily inflamed. Eg an ankle the physio said would take two weeks to improve is still lingering a year later.

T3 or not T3
Please see the screen shots above and below of my
TSH
, Free T4 and Free T3 exams (lots of tests, because I had a number surgeries for physical ailments in this period). The last value in each is after the T3/T4 dosage.

New results from Monitor my Health
My
TSH
was 33.52 when diagnosed. Am l right in thinking my Levo is bringing it down and do you think l need an increase? I still feel tired, never wake up refreshed and have low mood swings but joint pain in my wrist and hands is easing. Thanks.

Blood tests
I had bloods done with my doctor on 16th Nov (due to feeling terrible and irregular periods) and my
tsh
level came back at 9.5, they said to come back in 2-3 months for repeat to check level and if still high they would think about starting me on medication.

NHS Lab tests available to buy privately
To give you an idea of costs
TSH
FT3 FT4 TPO Antibodies would cost £42 Thyroid Peroxidase £29 Diabetes Vitamin D Total Cholesterol Thyroid £49 They have gradually built up the tests they do.

NHS bloods. Very low TSH
NHS did bloods and my
TSH
was too low so they changed my prescription to 125 mcg. This the same as what I was actually taking so of course the
TSH
won't rise. 4. Bloods this week show an even lower
TSH
I'm due a call from the GP shortly and I'm going to have to come clean.

herbs to help anxiety
I am wondering whether to try it again but on a smaller dose to see how I feel but nervous about my thyroid issue (high
tsh
and high t4). My other option in valerian root kalms day which might calm me down a bit and I also get a headache. Is valerian root a safer option?

Speechless by my GP’s response
I messaged my GP surgery and requested a full thyroid blood test (not just
TSH
which is all I’ve been able to get since COVID) as well as iron, vits B and D tests. I’ve been feeling really rotten, and want to look at every potential reason.

Going back to Thyroid-S from Metavive if I can find a reliable source
I have been taking 1 tablet of Metavive IV for the 6 months but my
TSH
has now crept up past 5. I was tested 4 months ago at 4.2 and I thought it was an anomaly but a recent test was even higher so something has changed.
