Hi all. Um where do I start, I haven't been feeling myself for around a year now, I am putting weight on, I ache, my muscles feel week,hair is getting thin, I get sweaty after any little thing I do, my joints snap crack and pop! I get bad spots, just generally feel knackered, I had my bloods done and my results are TSH 2.03. ft4 11.2 ft3 4.2,

I had my thyroid ultrasound on Wednesday and it was normal, being retested in 6 months.

Thanks for your reply, I'm not going mad I was told by my doc that it's not a big deal and I said tell my body that!

I am sorry you aren't feeling so well. It could be due to your thyroid gland but the results look 'normal' although you haven't given the ranges (the figurs for the range are usually in brackets). Labs differ throughout the country and it makes it easier to comment.

Normal doesn't mean you don't have a thyroid problem and will give you a couple of links:
