New blood results still aymptomatic
Samy3,
How long since you stopped taking Carbimazole? TSH 2.6 indicates you may have been over medicated and that is why you feel fatigued.
VitD is optimal around 100 so I would supplement 5,000iu D3 daily for six weeks and then reduce to 5,000iu alternate days and retest in 3-4 months. If you buy on Amazon please use the affiliate link healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...
Hi clutter thank u so much for ur teplyl like i said i took carbimazole for only 7 weeks that was last year at the start of june then diring the 3rd week of july they stopped it saying my blood results are normal since then im not on any thyroid medication but its neen a whole year my blood tesults r always within range but i get good and bad days evety week mostly bad days keep going to gp every other week is not helping either i do t know what to do
Samy3,
I think you may be becoming hypothyroid but NHS won't make a diagnosis until TSH is >4.5. You could try supplementing 200mcg selenium daily to support thyroid in adddition to supplementing vitamin D.
Unless you were tested positive for Graves antibodies it is possible you had transient hyperthyroidism caused by elevated thyroid peroxidase antibodies (Hashimoto's) which eventually causes hypothyroidism. Ask your GP receptionist whether any thyroid antibodies have been tested.
Clutter my graves antibodies were positive TRAB last year an this year in cebruary i requested my gp to check antibodies and she checked tpo perioxidase i think and they were slightly elevated my results were55 and range was between 0 to 50
Im taking all the supplements vitamin d selenium b complex and ferrous sulphate and just started taking b12 too
