THROID TEST RESULTS - ADVICE

3 Replies

I suspected a Thyroid issue due to chronic dizziness, nausea, shaky, faintness after eating (mostly 1 hour plus after eating). My results are back and seem normal. Could you offer some advice?

Thyroid Function

TSH 1.87 (Range: 0.27 - 4.20) mIU/L

Free T4 15.80 (range: 12 - 22) pmol/L

Free T3

5.01 (range: 3.1 - 6.8) pmol/L

Immunology

Anti-Thyroidperoxidase abs

9.0 (range: <34) kIU/L

Anti-Thyroglobulin Abs

12 (range: <115) kU/L

Starting to think I may have dumpling syndrome - any thoughts? Only problem is . . . I have never had gastric surgery?! I had fasting glucose test done which also came back normal!

More likely to be an adrenal/cortisol problem with those symptoms and blood results. Or pre-diabetes.

Thank you so much for your advice - my cortisol levels were high normal when last tested.

What is the advice on pre-diabetes do you know?! What can I do? I am dizzy and out of it lots of the time particularly after eating!! Help!

I'd try to get cortisol tested again and see if NHS will treat - they won't unless it's over normal. For pre-diabetes, it's the usual ketogenic diet advice as for Type 2 diabetes and drink lots of water around meal times. Also look up post prandial hypotension.
