Maggiemay, you Don't want your TSH to go up, you want your FT4 to go up. Once you're on thyroid hormone replacement, the TSH is a pretty useless test. And, as your FT4 goes up, your TSH will come down. But it doesn't matter.

Do you have the range for that FT4? Because without the range, the result doesn't mean much.

Not what you're looking for?
