Hi there
I've had post partum thyroiditus three times after each pregnancy. I was treated with carbimazole and beta blockers. My thyroid has since returned to 'normal' however I feel anything but normal! I've spent three years going back and forth to GPs and consultants, both private and NHS to help establish why I still feel so exhausted. Symptoms include hair loss, exhaustion, memory loss, brain fog, muscle aches, migraines, mood swings and dizziness. My latest results are:-
TSH- 1.37 (0.27-4.20)
FT4 13.62 (12-22)
FT3 4.0 (3.1-6.8)
Serum cortisol 377
B12 569 (180-900)
Ferritin 66 (15-445)
Folate 6.5 (2.50-19.50)
Vit D not tested but I take a supplement for this.
I'm not sure where to go from here and feel very fed up. I've taken a low dose of Levo in the past (25mcg) but didn't feel hugely better and it resulted in T4 increasing, T3 staying the same and TSH decreasing to around 0.6.
I'm not sure where to go from here? Any advice appreciated!
Thanks
Sam
