Help please,where do I go from here??
Hi everyone, I have had my repeat bloods and everything has come back ‘satisfactory’. I know that doesn’t mean optimal but I also know I’m going to have a hard time convincing the doctor that! I had my free T4 and anti bodies tested at the hospital when I saw the consultant last week, I have requested

Confusing result
These are my most recent results. Blood was taken first thing in the morning, fasted and before I took my medication. The lab ranges are also shown above. How can my tsh be so low and my t3 still be so low/not optimal? I'm on 150 levothyroxine. Am I right that I might need some t3? And if so, would

Help please with Latest Blood Results
Hi all, My latest thyroid bloods have just been made available and would appreciate some advice on what they might mean in terms of medication and supplementation changes. As my T4 has been too high with sub-optimal T3, there were mixed opinions on whether I should just reduce my T4 or reduce it and

Blood results help
Hi all Originally diagnosed 2017 b12 was 71, iron was 8 and folate was 2. I’ve had a couple of folic acid lows which have been treated. Things have got gradually better, however the last couple of months have been awful. Racing heart, flooding periods, pins and needles, exhaustion etc.

Transferrin?
Hello! I've been reading and learning so much here - so much knowledge and kindness... I've just got some blood tests back after 1 month on Levo and my TSH is down, T4 up and cholesterol down - yay! There are still some tests to come in, but I just noticed that my transferrin level is below range

NHS Health Check Drives
Had hypothyroidism for 20 years and pre-diabetes for about 12 years which I've managed to keep under control, touch wood. Now my GP surgery has insisted I attend a 60 Day Care Plan or some rubbish probably driven by Government bonuses as they've never batted an eyelid about test results until now and

High TSH for IVF
Hello everyone, I always had TSH around 2.5, but after taking Gonal F, Ovitrelle and Utrogestan something must of have triggered the levels, in a month it went from 2.5 to 6, the 10. I was put on ltyroxyne 50mg. We had IUIs which were not successful, maybe it was not worth doing with high TSH? Doctor

Having been on a combination T3 plus levo trial for a year, these are my latest results. I am on the trial because my last results indicated I am a poor converter. I was knocked back from taking 100mcg levo to 75mcg by a doctor who doesn't know me when my TSH lowered because I was newly on T3. Of which

Help with not tolerating T3 Liothyronine
Hi again, This might sound like a stupid question but does Levothyroxine increase T3 or does it just increase T4 (and of course lowers TSH)? The reason I ask is that I have now been taking Liothyronine 5mcg once a day for over two weeks and I feel worse than just on Levothyroxine. If I increase to

Sadly I am still not optimal yet.
In May this year after 9 months of titrating up from 25-125mcg, I thought that I was finally there. TSH was 0.808 (0.27-4.20) and FT4 was 21.5 (11-22) and agreed to test after 3 months to see if I had stabilised. Sadly just checked the NHS app as bloods were done Friday and can see that my TSH is now

tsh results and rash
I’ve been on 50 microgram tablets since March 2024 previously was on 25 microgram for a year. Just had tsh done and it’s level 4.4. Ferritin 168. Both marked as normal. I’ve been suffering with an itchy rash on neck and scalp since June. Had prescription steroid creams, lotions, anti histamine tablets
