Just got my latest bloods back, my results are as follows: -
Total T4 66 (59-154)
Free T4 12.5 (12-22)
Free T3 8.3 (3.1-6.8)
TSH 0.11 (0.27-4.2)
TPoAb 89.4 (0-34) Positive
TgAb 37.2 (0-115) Negative
I have had the Autoimmune Thyroiditis for a while - so no shock there (G.Free for 2 years, all vits good etc, but still not dropping.
BUT My main concern / query is I was advised to take my NDT 2-4 hours before my blood draw, and state the exact timing to my doctor. SO, these results are exactly 3 hours after taking 1Grain of Nature-throid. As such, am I right in thinking this is why the FT3 is over range, and would probably slip back to normal after a couple more hours?. I take 2 Grains daily, split into 2 doses.
Also, what's going on with the FT4 being so low in the range - i'm a little confused by this, would It warrant an additional 25mcg of Levothyroxine along with my morning dose of NDT?
Apologies for my many questions again - you Admins do seem to always put me right and your advice has been spot on in the past, so many thanks in advance.
Rick.
