I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2015. I was treated with 50 micrograms of levothyroxine daily until this March when my Tsh finally crept above the Normal range.(0.55- 4.78). My dose was raised to 75 micrograms. At my 6 month checkup my Tsh had dropped from 4.91 to 0.38. Thanks to the information

Treatment of eating disorders by thyroid hormone
This downloadable paper discusses case studies describing treatment for eating disorders by thyroid hormone. It's interesting in that case studies are described in detail and might find resonance for some posters on this forum.

Hi,My mum is 80. For the last year and a half her Gp has reduced her medication from 100mg to 75mg and then 50mg. My mum is now falling asleep and tired, she lacks energy and is very achey. She has Copd and osteoporosis as well as underactive thyroid. I asked her to get a copy of her last couple of years

Full list of autoimmune tests I got
This has come up in various threads, so I figure it's worth posting. I got all these in search of severe then-unspecific neuro/immune troubles. There are always more tests, but this covers a good set. -- The ones with ** are esp common rheum tests : ------- PROTEIN ELECTROPHORESIS SERUM CK

Direct measurement of T3 likely vital say researchers
This may have already been shared but I just came across an article about a new study that has stated that "It is important to note that the more typically measured biomarkers for thyroid function (T4 and TSH) are poorly linked to free T3 levels," Lawton and colleagues wrote. The ratio of TSH:T4 explained

Strange results! Would value opinions.
February 2022 on 125mcg Levo TSH 0.04 (0.27-4.2) FT3 5.22 (3.1-6.8) FT4 19.1 (12-22) January 2024 125 Levo 3mcg Lio TSH 0.0008 (0.27-4.2) FT3 4.7 (3.1-6.8) FT4 18.1 (12-22) After about a year adding Lio why has my FT3 lowered ?! Seems very odd. I mean I do feel quite a bit better. Still a slump

Hyperthyroidism symptoms
Since having several weeks iodine treatment on leg ulcer I started having a buzzing feeling in chest and sometimes thighs. Worse after eating. Making me feel very anxious. Gp did blood test for TSH level but came back normal (1.22). Have lost weight and wakes me at night too. What other tests could I

Disappointing phone consult & raised TSH on meds
Been waiting 5 months for a phone appt since getting a letter from my Endo asking me for bloods (Aug last year). I’ve been keen to speak to them as I’ve been feeling rubbish for most of last year. Had a TSH of 5.34 which is massively up for me - usually 1.x, even though I’ve been on lio and Levo for

Feeling Terrible. Latest Results
Hi All, Since early November, things seem to have gone off balance with me. I have been 'parked' on 50mg of Thyroxine, since 2020. I have asked for a rise several times and been refused. Recent surge in symptons are growing in number and affecting me badly now. Lots of muscle and tendon pain all

Recent illness impact on blood results?
Hi All Can anyone advise please whether having recently been really ill with a virus is likely to impact thyroid blood results? I’ve booked a private general MOT blood draw for next week but have been unwell since before Christmas with flu and then a lung infection. The blood tests will be looking

New Year New Bloods! It's time to titrate! Please help!
I made it to 8 weeks. This feels like a long post - I have both Thyroid and Iron issues to work out... I tried to make it shorter, but did not succeed, so here is a 5 bullet summary first.
TL;DR: Got results I didn't quite expect:
- I only changed a wee bit... + 12.5 on the levo
Changed
