Hope someone can help me please. I have been trying for sometime now to get my thyroid and adrenals
right. I have been taking T4/T3 combo, but am still tired and I get the shakes a little, with some palps. I decided to have another test done and now don't know what to do. My results looked better on T4 only, but I'm not sure what to think. My results are:
19.06.14
TSH 0.64 range 0.27 - 4.2
FT4 9.8 " 12.0 - 22.0 Taking T4 37.5mcg/T3 12.5mcg
FT3 4.1 " 3.1 - 6.8
But in April last year (08.04.13) they were:
TSH 0.17 range 0.27 - 4.2
FT4 19.7 " 12.0 - 22.0 Taking T4 75mcg
FT3 4.6 " 3.1 - 6.8
I have also been taking iron to increase my ferritin for conversion and these are the reuslts:
06.03.14
Iron 19 umo/l " 6.6 - 26.0
TIBC 69 umo/l " 41 - 77
Transferrin Sats 28% range 20 - 55
Ferritin 50ug/l range 13 - 150
Latest results 19.06.14 are:
Iron 15.8 range 6.6 - 26.0
TIBC 66 " 41 - 77
Transferrin sats 24% range 20 - 55
Ferritin 66 range 13 - 150
I'm not sure what to do, i'm still very tired, don't know whether to go back on T4 only. I have changed
my T4 to 56 mcg and T3 to 5mcg, but don't feel great.
Don't know if I should continue with the iron either, I would be very grateful for any advice.
Thanks.
