Blood results

Hi can anyone interpret these bloods for me. Serum free T4 13.7 (9.0-19.0) range. Serum TSH 3.16 (0.2-4.0) gp says high blood pressure is NOT thyroid related, tiredness could be chronic fatigue syndrome and thyroid levels are normal. Thanks 😟

I should add the bloods were done whilst taking Levo 150mg. The Dr said not taking it would not affect the result as its in the blood stream.

TSH is far too high for someone on meds and t4 is too low, and you have symptoms. You're probably undermedicated. GP is a tw@t. If you had taken your Levo before the test, the result is even worse! Might be time to ask for a referral to a sympathetic endo.

Thanks for the reply. The endo I saw last time basically told me to go away and lose weight. Well I have lost two stone on the fasting diet. Joined a gym and go swimming and still feel exactly the same!!

I would feel absolutely dreadful if my TSH was that high. Before my last dose increase, my TSH was 2.something, and I could hardly function.
