Hi all I was hoping that you helpful people could cast an eye over my latest results from medichecks.
I have been on 50 mcg of levothyroxine for 7 weeks ( 25mcg starting dose for 6 weeks prior to that)
I have a telephone appt. with the practice pharmacist tomorrow morning and I am assured she can increase my dose if necessary.
I haven't been feeling too great for the last couple of weeks and was thinking I would need an increase in dosage, these results would look to me to be little low on the T3 side.
Also my antibodies have never been high before so at least they now confirm I definitely have Hashimoto's.
Other TFT's have shown a reasonable conversion ration but this most recent one would maybe suggest otherwise.
What I am wanting to know is would anyone else push for a rise to 75mcg and retest in 6 weeks to see how it goes?
