CAN SOMEONE CHECK MY THYROID BLOOD TEST RESULTS

[lorrainewilson64]

TSH LEVEL = 0.42 ( 0.27 - 4.20 )

T4 LEVEL = 15.6 ( 9 - 26 )

TRIODOTHYRONINE level = 3.7 ( 2.8 - 7.1 )

FOLATE = 5.8

FERRITIN = 400

VIT B 12 = 559

Thank you for taking a look at my results the Dr said everything was NORMAL but would love another opinion ...they always say NORMAL

[shaws Administrator]

In Normal they may be but you'd probably feel a bit better with a higher FT4 and FT3. The main question is 'how are you feeling'? Others will respond re Ferritin and Folate. Updated information suggest B12 should be around 1,000. You could supplement with sublingual methylcobalamin B12.

Hi thank you. . I do take a vit B supplement .I suffer with brain fog. Struggling to lose weight no matter how hard I try .J asked about T3 and I thought the Dr didn't really know

I'm taking NATURE'S BEST high strength vit B 1000pg Methylcobalamin supplement 1 tablet a day it's says ...are these the wrong one

[shaws Administrator in reply to lorrainewilson64]

No, these are correct. It is just that sublingual are absorbed through the tongue - that's the only difference.

[lorrainewilson64 in reply to shaws]

Thank you. Think I will buy them ones next time

[lorrainewilson64]

Would really love advice if I need and how much I should alter my medication or add T3 or other supplements.

Put up a fresh post and copy/past your results above into it. Also say you are hypo and when diagnosed and your dose of levo and ask for advice on levo and for a private message re sourcing T3. You will get more responses.

Also if you put info of when diagnosed re hypo/dose etc.on your Profile that will be helpful. I had to look down your posts as I didn't know if you'd been diagnosed
