blood test results finally

[lorilou107]

HI,

I have been posting on here after a large goitre only recently came up on my neck but I have been having hypothyroid symptoms for months.

GP and the unsympathetic Endo are dismissing my results as normal but I feel anything but. I have finally got my results of the blood tests and am posting them here so maybe you can help me.

I am having surgery on Monday to remove the goitre and check to see if it is cancerous but they say that none of my symptoms will change after having the partial thyroidectomy which I think seems ridiculous, why on earth did I suddenly get a goiter in the first place then and why do I feel so unwell, I don't think any part of my body works very well at the moment. It's so depressing.

Can any of you help me with deciphering my results at all?

Many thanks, you wonderful people

Lori

The aim of the medication is to get the FT4 and the FT3 in the top third or even top quarter of their respective ranges so around 14. Your TSH is st the top of the range and we feel better if nearer 1! So you are very undermedicated. Hopefully they will make changes after surgery.

I only looked at your thyroid results as not so easy on my phone to read them.

That's the problem I haven't been given any medication at all, My gp and endo refuse to treat it even though I am sure I am hypothyroid like my father is.

Many thanks

I am sorry but I am to inexperienced to comment but I wish you all the luck with your operation and hope that you start to feel well again. Try not to worry.

Hopefully post surgery may make it more apparent. Hope it goes well.
