Do these results suggest hyper because I don't feel it!

Hi (only diagnosed in June so still trying to learn :) This is my 3rd result since Hashimotos diagnosis in June. Currently on 100mcg levo (for past 6 weeks) Trouble is I feel so (hypo) ill most days - flu-like symptoms, aching joints, tired, sleeping very heavily, itchy skin brain fog (all the usuals) I wonder if I'm going to be one of those unlucky people who don't feel better on levo? Any advice gratefully received.

Did you do test as recommended?

As early as possible in morning and fasting and last dose Levothyroxine 24 hours prior to blood tests?

When were vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12 last tested?

What supplements do you currently take?

Hi,

yes, test taken as recommended, at 6am, last does 24 hrs before. I'm awaiting vitamin results but had been taking D, B12, iron, selenium and magnesium. GF for 4 weeks then ate it for 4 to do coeliac and now GF for 3 weeks. Maybe I've just got a lingering virus which won't shift - that's what it feels like but that usually indicates hypo for me over the years. I've got a weird recurring cough too so it could be a 3-4 week bad cold I suppose.

Not what you're looking for?
