Hidden I don't know about others but I can't make them out on my PC or tablet, it doesn't help that they're sideways. How about you edit your post and type the results in, there's not much there so not a big job.

Range for the FT4 is 10 - 20.

Nagged, I think you need an increase in dose! How long have you been on 75 mcg? It's more or less a starter dose.

Started meds in may 50mg no further bloods booked in. I am changing GP practice, just waiting for appointment with kidney specialist to come through.

Will see what new practice say

Tried to get get earlier appointment with thyroid consultant, was told lucky to be seeing her in December.

Thanks for your help

Well, your GP could test your TSH and FT4. And give you an increase. You should be tested six weeks after any change in dose.

greygoose last lot of bloods done were sent to consultant, I had to ring her secretary after not hearing anything think it was after about 5 weeks. Having problems with GP practice don't really want to go there, but will have to that will be fun.
