Over the last year I've reduced my intake of thyroxine on advice from endocrinologist and a rheumatologist who say that my early onset osteoporosis is linked with my over-suppressed TSH. My last blood test (last week) for the first time shows normal range of TSH, but I have definitely been feeling hypo for a few months and recently excessively exhausted... and I've noticed from my results below that my T3 levels from the most recent test , whilst in range, are the lowest they've been for a long time.
I'd really like to know if I should be asking the endo at the hospital to give me T3 or something else as i don't think i can function on my current thyroxine levels. Below are my results over the last 2 years, sorry for so many numbers but I would really appreciate any advice, the appointment is on Tues . thanks...
