Finally I have some good news. Today Medicheck emailed me to give me my results within a few hours of receiving my sample.
TSH - 2.64 (0.27-4.2)
FT4 - 18.72 (12-22)
FT3 - 5 (3.1-6.8)
I am over the moon. My TSH was 9.28 in May and it had been climbing since August last year. In May I started 25mg levo after battling with my GP. In July my TSH had dropped to 6.8. In August it had gone back up to 7.9 so I upped my meds to 50mg. Now after 8 weeks at 50mg it's dropped right down and my FT4 has climbed nicely. I am so happy, I can't tell you how much this means to me.
I had an NHS full set of bloods nearly 2 weeks ago just for an MOT as I have fatigue issues. All clear but sodium which had dipped to 129 (133-146 is the norm) I have never had an issue with sodium. My GP wants to re check it this Friday, I have a serious phobia of blood tests and it took me 2 months to get the last lot done and he had to come to my house and I sobbed my heart out infront of him haha!! Such an idiot I asked Medicheck to add sodium onto my thyroid results and kindly they have and I am awaiting the result. Do you think my GP will accept it instead of re doing an NHS one? This was a finger prick blood test like Blue Horizon offer. I am hoping he will so I don't have to put myself through another NHS test at the moment, I have had enough of tests now.
Thank you for all your support. I am one happy Julie right now. Praying sodium comes back normal so i can relax and look forward to Christmas at long last, it's been a terrible year for me health wise and I am struggling with anxiety as a result. I want some good news and I am almost there if this sodium comes back normal. I googled and scared myself as it means I will need to be admitted into hospital if it keeps dropping.
