Blood Test Results

I increased my level of levothyroxine in March from 100mcg to 125mcg. At that point results were:

T3 5.2 (range 3.0 to 7.0)

T4 19 (range 10 to 25)

TSH 0.93 (range 0.35 to 4.5)

Got latest blood test results today. They didn't test T3 but T4 still 19 and TSH reduced to 0.03.

GP recommending I reduce dose again. Any thoughts?

Been feeling relatively well apart from some dizziness which appears to be caused by an inner ear condition which I have had before.

india07 If you are feeling well on that dose I would resist your doctor's suggestion to reduce your dose. You can't know whether you are over medicated unless your FT3 is tested and shown to be over range, so if he insists on a reduction then you should insist on him getting your FT3 tested to show that you need to. Put the ball in his court.

SeasideSusie's feeling a bit bolshie tonight :D
