Had another Blood Test today as they lowered my Levothyroxine to 75 for the last couple of months and I've felt so tired so now I'm back on 100 they test for TSH and Thyroglobulin Anti bodies TSH receptor Antibodies T4 that's it I asked him if they could test for T3 he said no we don't test for that in The UK so unless I want to pay and go private that's it !

Angiebaby, FT3 is tested in the UK but obviously not in your area. Blue Horizon and Genova do private blood testing but you really need FT4 and FT3 done at the same time to check for conversion issues.
