Blood Test results

[Poppet2308]

Hi. I've had countless symptoms of thyroid disfunction for over 20 years but am never taken seriously by my GP.

I am considering going private. I'd appreciate it if someone could interpret my latest bloods. Thank you

Note: my ferritin levels have dropped by 80ug/L in two months for no obvious reason.

Would help if I could read results. Could you type them?

Apologies, I thought they were visible.

Serum Free T4 level = 13.4 (range = 7.86 - 14.41)

Serum TSH level = 2.92 (range 0.35 - 5.50)

Thyroid Peroxidase Ab conc

GP stated there were no other thyroid tests that she can action.

My ferritin levels at the beginning of October were 124.1. They are now 40.5.

Hoping someone has some advice please.

My previous test was via Medichecks so GP is unaware of the massive drop in ferritin levels but I will raise this with her.

I have just purchased a full thyroid panel from Thriva which offers the full spectrum except for RT3.

I'm not on any other medication that could account for this. Im not coeliac as far as I'm aware but I believe I'm probably gluten-intolerant. However, my diet was the same two months ago as it is now - so I'm alarmed by the inexplicable drop in ferritin levels, too.

I never considered it could be something as grave as cancer. Would that not have shown up in other tests I had?
