I suffer from AF and had been taking Amiodarone which can affect your thyroid. I have just had a blood test with a T4 of 32.8 and a TSH of <0.02 , my arrhythmia nurse has referred me to thyroid specialist. How bad is this ? Thank you .

Roony39,

You have Amiodarone induced hyperthyroidism. T4 32.8 is quite high and the specialist will want to bring it down into normal range which will cause the TSH to resume normal range.

Your reading are obviously not right and the drug you are taking increases T3. It would be helpful in future though if you post your ranges along side results as they differ from lab to lab.

Hope they soon get you sorted.

Thank you silverfox7, I don't know what you mean by ranges, all my doctor gave me was these figures .How do I find out what my ranges are ? I hope that now I've stopped Amiodarone that it will sort it out when my body finally gets rid of the drug which I know can take some time.
