Thyroid Test Results

[StrangeKoala]

Hi everyone,

I just got my 'Thyroid check plus six' results back from Blue Horizon. All in normal range although Free Thyroxine is on the lower side of normal. I'd just thought I'd run them past you as you all seem to know a lot!

Just a bit of background - I have had many vague, 'hypothyroid-like' symptoms for a long time and I'm just trying to find an answer. I'm doing a few detailed private tests mainly to rule out conditions. I'm not on any medication and I haven't been diagnosed with anything else that could explain my symptoms.

Results:

Total Thyroxine (T4) - 92nmol/L (Range 59-154)

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone - 2.62 mIU/L (0.27 - 4.2)

Free Thyroxine - 13.3 pmol/l (12.0 - 22.0)

Free T3 - 4.9 pmol/L (3.1 - 6.8)

Thyroglobulin Antibody - <10.0 IU/mL (0-115)

Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies - 9.8 IU/mL (0-34)

So, when you have a minute, if you could look them over and give your opinion. If all is fine with these then I can put the possibility of having a thyroid problem to rest.

Thank you!

Rather looks like your thyroid is struggling a bit. And, you're right, your FT4 is on the low side. But, the FT3 isn't too bad, as conversion is being driven by the highish TSH. But, you need to keep an eye on this. Repeat tests from time to time to see how it progresses.
