CRP and ESR look high. Rheumatoid Factor High (?). I also wonder why this was tested? Have you seen a Rheumatologist and do they suspect you have inflammation in the blood? Have they run an anti CCP blood test? No medical knowledge but I do have Rheumatoid Arthritis so I would question that line. Hope you get results soon that help you on a path of recovery!
Interesting, may be worth you just questioning that line and enquire if you should see a Rheumatologist who specialises in inflammation in the bloods.... especially as you feel you do not have answers / medication not resolving your issues. I would keep a diary of symptoms daily ready as it can be invaluable for the specialist to give a clearer picture of what you are going through. Best of luck.
One of our deceased doctors was an expert in fibro and CFS which he stated was due to a person being 'thyroid hormone resistant' and would only recover on large doses of T3. I doubt any doctor/endo in the UK is aware of such a problem as 'resistant'. Anyway I will give you some links which may be helpful as we do know many doctors/endos have no knowledge at all of symptoms which are supposed to be relieved.
The prohormones, i.e. B12 and Vit are too low and will give symptoms as well.Get vit B12 checked to make sure you don't have Pernicious anaemia and low numbers could indicate, in future, dementia. We can supplement with B12 but not until it your test excludes P.A. Taking B12 can mask deficiencies of P.A. The P.A. society recommends number to be nearer the top.
Funny u say that abt huge doses I had a doctor who sadly has passed away who used huge doses of T3 to treat me i was his patient for 2/3 years and it was best I ever felt all weight fell off energy was up... my dose went up to 120 a day of T3 first thing he always did was take my temp... my doctors wouldn't keep up his prescription when he passed away even tho I was flying..
This PA can a blood test show it up... just to add I have low stomach acid too...
Your TSH is euthyroid, but your FT4 is very low. What you need is your FT3 tested. If that is also low, then you need to consider Central hypo, where the problem is with your pituitary/hypothalamus rather than your thyroid.
46 6.9-282.5All your nutrients are too low and need supplementing - which will make you feel bad in itself.
Taking a good quality daily vitamin B complex with folate in should help improve B12 and folate. Eg Igennus Super B complex or Jarrow B right
If you are taking vitamin B complex, or any supplements containing biotin, remember to stop these 3-5 days before any blood tests, as biotin can falsely affect test results
Vitamin D is too low. Aiming to improve to around 100nmol. Vitamin D mouth spray by Better You is good as avoids poor gut function. Suggest you supplement 2000iu for 2-3 months and retest. It's trial and error what dose each person needs. Once you Improve level, very likely you will need on going maintenance dose to keep it there. Retesting twice yearly via vitamindtest.org.uk
Also read up on importance of magnesium and vitamin K2 Mk7 supplements when taking vitamin D
Eating liver or liver pate once a week should help improve low ferritin
Your FT4 is very low. You are only taking 50mcg of Eltroxin. Suggest you try increasing Levo dose by 25mcg and retest in 6-8 weeks. Many of us find we need good FT4 and FT3.
How much Levo were you taking before T3 was added?
Best to make only one change at a time. Waiting at least 10 days to asses each change
I had Hodgkin's lymphoma at 23 and was very sick I was left with what they said was chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia... all my bloods were ok my thyroid looked fine I got sicker and sicker until I literally couldn't get out of bed.. I found a dr here in Ireland he treated me with huge doses of T3 only he felt I had thyroid issues and mitochondrial distinction... I felt very well for a few years he sadly got sick and passed away.. none of my doctors felt his approach was correct....
I'm back to square one only difference now is my blood show underactive thyroid...
It is good bloods show it now but doctor feel they have treated me to a level my bloods are good doesn't matter how I feel they done their job...
Thyroid was def damaged from radium.. I also suffer headaches,dry eyes, sores inside nose and mouth, very frequent sore throat and swollen glands... ears nose and throats doctor have done range of autoimmune tests nothing showed up...
