ashokkumart You are seriously undermedicated to have a TSH of 15.75. The aim of a treated hypo patient generally is for TSH to be 1 or below and FT4 and FT3 to be in the upper part of their respective reference ranges if that is where you feel well. Ask your doctor for an increase in Levo.

High cholesterol can be due to Hypothyroidism.

Is this TSH correct ??? Super High!

Could you please add the normal ranges in brackets for your blood results.

Don't recognise the blood sugar or cholesterol numbers either. Are you in USA?

What are your symptoms?

Not what you're looking for?
