Is that the only result you have? Free T3 = 4.4? Nothing else?

What was the reference range?

I had my t4 back from my gp at 14, and my tsh was just over 3.

Have made appt to go back in a couple of weeks as i'm too tired/cross to be able to have a sensible conversation with him at the moment!

They may be in range - although we don't know, because you haven't given any ranges - but your TSH is obviously much too high. 3 is hypo.

Looking at your past posts B12 is under. Ideally needs to be over 600 as under 500 and you can start to see neurological changes. In Japan Drs start supplementing at 500! Get some liquid or powdered form as easier to absorb.

TSH of 3 and I would feel like I'd been run over by a bus. Ideally needs to be under 1 for hypothyroid people to feel well.

Vitamin D?

Ask for your thyroid antibodies to be tested too for Hashimotos.

Bluehorizonmedicals have self testing if dr continues to be useless.

Thyroid plus 11,12&15 are all good comprehensive tests.

Thanks for the reply. I already take sublingual b12 πŸ˜•

Run over by a bus sums it up perfectly!! Are there any medical articles that mention the below 1 reading for tsh...i'm seeing my gp again in a couple of weeks and it would be good to have something to wave under his nose!

Hmmm there's bound to be and I've read it lots but haven't any to hand. Ask admin or Marz always has good articles.

I'll have a look too.

Not what you're looking for?
