Ktmannie,

Are you taking Levothyroxine?

Constant thirst can indicate diabetes. Have you had a HbA1c blood test?

Ktmannie,

Your thyroid results are euthyroid (normal) and thyroid antibodies are negative for autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's) so you don't appear to have thyroid dysfunction currently. However, thyroid peroxidase antibodies are high in range which could mean you will develop Hashimoto's so you might want to check thyroid and antibody levels annually.

forgive me if im wrong but t4 is thyroxin . folk are given thyroxin if they have low thyroid butif given to much go hyperthyroid . im producing way to much natural thyroxin surely this will have the same averse affects as giving someone to much thyroxin replacement . my symptoms are getting unbearable
