Hi, I will try to be brief. Diagnosed with under active thyroid approx. three years ago, on 50 mcg levothyroxine. Breast cancer diagnosed last December, operation (lumpectomy) March, this year, two lymph nodes removed and a reduction in the other breast. Infections in both breasts for two months from surgery, decided not to have chemo, radiotherapy delayed due to infections, completed end of June, radiotherapy to the breast, under arm and neck area. Suffering fatigue, thought it was radiotherapy but got much worse. Also had zolfrenic infusion at end of September and am on Anastrozole. Fatigue worsened, partner suggested thyroid and blood tests. Here are the most recent and older results. GP requested TF3 test but lab/consulted refused on the basis that it was not necessary. Have appointment with breast surgery consultant tomorrow and want to discuss result. Any information or questions you think I should ask her would be most helpful:

So are you still on 75mcg levothyroxine? If so, you're undermedicated! You need a raise in dose as soon as possible.
