Hi. Wondering if anyone has ever had this? Saw GP Weds & did bloods as pain on right side of thyroid & when swallowing and felt really unwell. GP called me in yesterday morning - TSH 0.02 and FT4 26.6 White blood cell count high too. They called hospital & was sent over to their A&E. kept in all day under observation - ecg, more bloods, a beating rate monitor, BP, temp & oxygen sats. Felt so systemically unwell.
I (of course) read the GPS referral letter to the consultant and they had suggested I was having a “thyroid storm”. And (again, of course) I googled it, and the first result said it was more often fatal! This may not have helped my HR!
They then started treatment of prednisone & propranolol (beta blockers) and I started to feel better.
They let me come home at about 6pm, but open door policy while on these meds (about 6 weeks).
This morning I feel awful - shaky & heart racing - so waiting for meds to kick in again.
My previous history has been for years that my FT4 is low, and my TSH is also low - I have been querying this for a while but GPs saying not in treatable range.
So them saying I have hyperthyroidism was a complete shock. I don’t feel how I guess I assumed that would feel. Apart from today the shakiness & the HR. I am still exhausted. Overweight. Sleep like a bear.
Anyone been through this or know more? I keep bumping up against results online for subacute Thyroiditis and other types, but acute being more bacterial. Anyway - I’m just hoping I’ll start to feel better. Tbh I thought the meds yesterday would have meant today I was ok. Hahaha. I’m clearly not thinking this through!
Gp has agreed to treat me.
post partum thyroiditis

TSH 7.28, then 5.37, FT4 at low end - borderline or not?
Levothyroxine not making me feel better.
