I did saliva test same time than had my thyroid tested. Low again. My TSH was 2.51 (0.4-4) and T4 11 (10-21). Test I never got,but filed a complaint and hope for re-test.
The thing is ,I dont understand what is going on. I had thyroid panel done on June 2016 and based on the results i was recommended to have saliva test as My results indicated possibly high cortisol :
Thyroglobulin : 110.2 (3-40, but optimal 3-10)
TT4 2.5 (5-10.8)
T4 0.9 (0.7-2.5)
T3 2.5 (2.5-6.5)
TSH 1.5 (0.5-3.0)
Tpoab borderline need to retest.
Iodine 35 (100-300)
Selenium 65 (25-175 but 50-175 optimal)
Thyroid panel august 2015 ( supplemented iodine February to June/ selenium from feb til now)
Thyroglobulin 37 (3-40/optimal 3-10)
TT4 4.8 (5-10.8)
T4 1.2 (0.7-2.5)
T3 3.2 (2.5-6.5)
TSH 1.0 (0.5-3.0)
Tpoab 20 (0-150)
Iodine 34
Selenium 46

CORTISOL SALIVA TEST MAY 2014 (medivere same as the one i used now)
Similar curve than in picture from recent test.
CORTISOL SALIVA TEST MAY 2013 (medivere)
Quite similar curve than ZRT 2015., slightly lower first sample but quite close to normal indicating just mild fatigue.
Things that bother me:
Its thyroglobulin not thyroglobulin antibodies. It is supposed to indicate iodine deficiency but using iodine lowered my TT4 and T4. Iodine only 24 hr urine so only tells about consumption of iodine during past few days. But if thyroglobulin is leaking no building material for t4 and t3. No cause for leaking found. High endo said its just protein and leaking is normal.
With NTIS low TT4 and as low as mine indicates death. Yay. So if it is NTIS will i die? (sarcastically) qnd what is causing my NTIS as i am not starving nor have any acute illnesses as far as i know. Told i am healthy as a horse. Poor horse.
Its not stress causing thyroid issues as cortisol is never high? Why every other saliva test is normal?
Had somewhat high mercury in urine tho it is not accurate test, had eaten loads of sea fish before the test which can be high in mercury. No one told me. I do have two amalgam fillings but no money to replace them. As if we had qualified dentist here anyways.
So. Out of money and ideas.
If it is chronic yersinia enterocolitica i don't have a chance to fix it. I know it is treated with herbal antibiotics but not tested in Finland.
Cant go self medicating' i learned yesterday that cant order meds w/o prescription to Finland.
Sigh.
