Are you taking thyroid meds? If so, what type and what dose? Are you taking any other medication?

I am taking 100 of levothyroxine at the moment. I am having problems with very low cortisol and I’m taking 30 of hydrocortisone they are making me feel rotten.

Your FT4 is below range

Your FT3 is below range

TT4 is below range.

Take these results to GP/Endo and ask for 25mcg dose increase in Levothyroxine and retesting in 6 weeks

Have you had vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12 tested recently?

Do you have Hashimoto's also called autoimmune thyroid disease diagnosed by high thyroid antibodies?

They have never said I have hashimoto’s. I have included antibody tests on my post.

I have very low cortisol and am on 30 of hydrocortisone making me feel rotten. Also I’m getting fatter and more depressed by the minute!

Not what you're looking for?
