Endo refuses that there is anything wrong with my results today and just stay as I am what do you all think?

Can u please advise me should I see a private consultant? I experience dizzy feelings all day, funny feelings in head , muscle tiredness , heart palpitations 10 times a day, crawling feelings in legs, feeling cold , tight feelings in chest etc 😒

Holza,

I posted information from the BTA and ATA in your previous post saying TSH during the second and third trimesters should be <3.0 so you are a little undermedicated.

If you have enough Levothyroxine why not increase dose by 25mcg.

[Holza in reply to Clutter]

I was just a bit unsure weather to do that with out a professional seen as I am expecting I know just like us all clutter I long for an answer thought I was getting some were with these results thought maybe I was needing t3 added. I was supposed to have an appointment with doc toft but since been pregnant been suffering with hyperemesis 🙁

[Clutter in reply to Holza]

Holza,

The BTA doesn't support T3 during pregnancy. I would increase Levothyroxine dose.

I'm sorry you have hyperemesis. I hope it doesn't last your entire pregnancy.

[Holza in reply to Clutter]

Ok clutter thank you what about after baby u think it might be an option thank you 😊

[Clutter in reply to Holza]

Holza,

T3? You might get it prescribed privately but it's increasingly difficult for new patients to get T3 prescribed on the NHS.

[Holza in reply to Clutter]

Thanks was just hoping for an answer from endo as my results showed some red flags but no hope from them just wasn't sure if there was anything else I could do?

[Clutter in reply to Holza]

Holza,

Pregnancy skews thyroid results so I think you will need to allow everything to calm down after delivery and then see where your levels are at.

[Holza in reply to Clutter]

Ok thanks clutter.

Hi, I don't know anything about thyroid hormones in pregnancy. But I've heard RT3 can be 'flushed out' by taking T3. But I'd want someone more expert than me to comment on that before you even thinking about acting on it.

Thanks shiny b 🤗

Ask GP to test B12 and folate

Both are very important for baby's development

Active B12 under 70 is considered suspicious

viapath.co.uk/our-tests/act...

Crawling feeling could be symptoms of low B12

[SlowDragon Administrator]

Did you get B12tested and injections

Or are you supplementing B12 and folate?

Ferritin also too low. Did you get full iron panel test for Anaemia

Your antibodies confirm you have Hashimoto's. Are you on strictly gluten free diet

[Holza]

I will maybe ask endo to test them for me I have been taking b12 tablets selenium tablets and a pro biotic on xx I have tried keeping to gluten free but I have got hyperemesis with this pregnency so hard time to do it xx
