Nov 2014 free T4 22.9 (12.22)

Feb 2015 free T4 19.8 (12.22)

What is wrong with these results, I have googled my results and I am confused, I can see from TSH that it has been dropping, and now is under range,

And free t4 seems to be rising.

My symptoms are sweating nervousness, anxiety, panic heart racing, headache buzzing in left ear,also menopausal, don't take hrt anymore since nov 2014 and that's when results gone a bit odd, hair loss, tremors shaking wobbly legs, then freezing cold, stomach ache, sickly, acid reflux, I also have gone onto sertraline in jan 2015. Take 75 mg levothyroxine

If someone knows about this could you please explain, i would be very grateful.

Is it possible that although within most of the UK's reference ranges you are overmedicated for you? I know that I am okay with a free T4 value of 20 or so, but up to 22 and I get all the symptoms of hyperthyroidism. Were you diagnosed with an autoimmune thyroid condition and, if so, how long ago? It could be your thyroid unhelpfully showing you that it ain't dead yet: I think Clutter refers to them as 'Hashimoto's flare-ups', i.e. your own thyroid produces a bit of hormone and it can really mess with your system because suddenly your meds are all at the wrong dose.

When did you last feel more or less well, and what kind of values were you getting then (free T4 and TSH)?

Thank you for the reply, I have never been diagnosed with an autoimmune thyroid condition, I have never felt good on, I have had a scan on my thyroid and he said everything looks ok, the only thing my gp said was i could get hashimotos further down the line, what test do you need for autoimmune thyroid.

I am also menopausal so my gp keeps saying it's all that.

That is the only results I have.
