Hi, have Hasimotos and on 150mg of Levo but still not feeling well. Suffering tiredness, brain fog, anxiety etc. Not over medicated as last time dosage reduced felt worse until dosage increased again. GP won't test for T3 as lab will not permit it and last time I saw the endo they said the same. So any recommendations of where to get T3 tested in Northern Ireland please?

Don't do FT3 on its own. Have FT4 done at the same time so that you can see how well (or not) you are converting T4 to T3.

If you just want the basic test, Thyroid Check Plus Three covers TSH, FT4 and FT3. Other bundles are available, check what might be useful for you bluehorizonmedicals.co.uk/e...
