So recently I got private blood test results following some annoying symptoms of really achey/stiff/tight muscles and tendons and constant headache.
which were
TSH 3.18 (0.27-4.20),
TT4 106.0 (66-181)
FT4 21.10(12-22)
FT3 4.10 (3.1-6.8)
I have positive antibodies and it has been confirmed I have a conversion issue.
I discovered I had a new GP join our surgery who I thought I would go and try and she is LOVELY! I showed her my private tests (above and much more), we talked about conversion issues and T3 needing to be in the top 3/4's of range, and vitamins needing to be optimal, and poor kidneys. We talked about my distracting 'diagnosis' of CFS and how it shouldn't be on my records. She then ordered her own batch of tests inc. T3, B12 and kidneys. (I am shocked! Were did she come from?? I really hope Dr A**se doesn't scare her off like he has to the other lady doctors at our surgery!)
My T3 came back out of range. T3 3.3 (3.70-6.70), and my kidneys came back at an eGFR of 63 (>90).
She has referred me back to the endo (But the appointment is not until the end of Mar! eek)
So, she then upped my levo from 112mcg to 150 mcg a day to try and get my T3 up. In the meantime I am working hard to get my B12, Iron and Folate and D3 optimal.
Its been just over a week, my headache that I have had constantly for months has gone, my muscle tightness has gone... BUT I am really giggly! I have a huge grin on my face, I think everything is funny! I can't believe what a good mood I am in! And my water retention (that I didn't even realise I had) has gone.
I am loving how I am feeling at the mo, but am I little worried that I am becoming hyper...
Is it normal, or should I just enjoy the ride whilst it lasts?!...
