Just had repeat thyroid fuction test done and been advised I am borderline and have been made a doctor's appointment for this Wednesday to discuss. My recent results are TSH level 0.04 miu/L (range 0.27-4.2)below range, T4level 17.1 pmol/L (range 10-21) my last test before was in September 2013 results TSH level 1.76 miu/L. (range 0.27-4.2) T4 level 21.2 pmol/L (range 10-21) above range. I am currently on levo 150 mcg daily. What am I borderline of?. Any help welcome.

Good question. I would venture you are borderline HYPER now but you are taking T4 so presumably you can adjust that. Grave's disease may behave this way:

Impossible to tell without an FT3 test. If you were hypER you would know about it, edgy, irritable, losing weight (ah, if only). Your September results look ideal - what's changed since then? Do not be persuaded to reduce your dose if you feel good.

Not what you're looking for?
