Symptoms of too much levo with normal ft3?

[Clara9]

What was your symptoms of to much ft4 but still normal ft3?

And how soon will levels decrease when lowering dose of levo?

Clara9,

It will help members advise if you post your TSH, FT4 and FT3 results and ranges. Not everyone has symptoms when FT4 is high and FT3 normal. It can take 4-6 weeks for levels to decrease when dose is reduced.

When my t4 was high and above the range (t3 always low on Levo) my sweat (If and when I was sweating) smelled like sour milk/ cheese.

I had stiff and painful muscles especially lower body, big muscles like thighs and butt, very stiff trunk I.e couldn't twist, swelled up lower legs making squatting painful, very puffy face and massive under eye bags, fluid filled and painful knees - couldn't kneel even on soft cushion.

When I stopped my t4 completely (150 mcg t4 + t3 combo at that time) and moved to t3 only, t4 was completely gone from my body - bloods confirmed - in 2.5 weeks but going by various symptoms I feel it was gone sooner, approx 1-1.5 weeks.
