My TSH is 0.14, range 0.4 - 4 .I increased to thyroxine 125 mcg a day from 125 mcg one day and 112.5 the next.I am now very short of breath on excretion and weak and lethargic.My previous TS H was 0.26.I used to totoerate 125 to 150 mcg,but for some reason can only tolerate above.

You have to look at T4 and T3 rather than TSH, do you have those results ?

I know,but gp will not do t3,since I stopped it.I have always had good t3 levels though.

Be a good idea to buy a finger prick test from Medichecks so you know what those results are rather than going by TSH.

You wont know if you are overmedicated until FT4 and FT3 are tested. TSH alone can't tell you that.

Not what you're looking for?
