Can a daily T3 dose of 75mg cause abnormal liver enzymes

[Suin]

I've waited 2 yrs for a respiratory referral and the consultant really listened to all aspects of my health

He's ordered my an ultrasound of my liver and more bloods as I've abnormal results of my liver enzymes.

The only meds I take are 75mg T3

This couple of months 🤔

Fatty liver will produce abnormal liver enzyme tests.

Thanks @gabk I'll look up fatty liver, I only drink on rare occasions as alcohol leaves me seriously ill. But maybe it's something else at play, likely autoimmune knowing my luck 🌻

[gabkad in reply to Suin]

People oftentimes associate fatty liver disease only with alcohol consumption but there is non-alcoholic fatty liver disease as well.

[Suin in reply to gabkad]

The minute I heard, liver I think alcohol, but I see autoimmune, hepatitis and all sorts now 😳

Many thanks, I'm hypo this 22 years,

I've not had gallbladder trouble, but getting an ultrasound for abnormal liver enzyme results, I've not seen them yet. Hope your daughter is ok 💐

???

I was responding to Suin's question.

[Suin]

I hope so 💕

A fatty liver can also occur if you eat a lot of sugar (carbs) and sugar and fat together.

A lot of fat without carbs is not dangerous.

I hope the ultrasound goes well.

Thank you, I'm not really watching what I'm eating atm,

We are goin through a lot of sugar in this house though 🤔

Yes it can cause you abnormal liver enzymes if the dose of t3 you are on is to high I found that when I dropped the t3 a little my liver enzymes went back to normal but it's nothing to worry about about hope this helps xx

[razzar1978]

Also to mention I had my gallbladder removed too xx

[Suin in reply to razzar1978]

Thanks so much, I'd upped T3 on my own so wasn't exactly honest with consultant 🙈Now it may come back and bite me! Aw well 😱

[razzar1978 in reply to Suin]

Its fine just drop it down a little I'm severely hypo I'm optimal on 60 mcgs of t3 ... 20 mcgs every 8 hrs this is how I was told to take it by my endo because of the short half life xx your liver enzymes will drop back to normal xx
