Advice I've got hashi

[cowgirl999]

My last numbers a few months ago were as follows:

Free T4. 1.1. (.8-1.8)

Tsh .03

Free T3. 3.3. (2.3- 4.2)

T3 uptake 34. 22-35

What does this mean? My dr decreased by synthroid from 75 to 50 and kept my cytomel at 15

Am I over or under Medicated?

How are you feeling?

My guess is that with that decrease you are going to be Under-medicated. Your levels weren't too bad before, although there was room for improvement. But your doctor isn't thyroid literate, is he, and only looked at the TSH. Time to change your doctor, if you can, because this one is going to keep you sick, rather than make you well.

Hi,

I hope you don't mind me asking, but I need to get a T3 uptake test done in the uk. Did you get yours done in the US or UK?

If in the uk, what lab did you use as I can't seem to find one that accommodates this.

I'm in the U.S.
