I need advice please

Hi, I wrote yesterday that I felt like I overexerted myself. But this morning I'm feeling unusually anxious. From my labwork attached (after 6 weeks of 125), I went from 125 to 137 to try to get my levels optimal. This is the 20th day on 137 and I started feeling wiped out a week ago. Is it possible I'm on too much levo? Is it too soon to retest? I'm not sure I can stand this for another week. Thank you

It's normal to wait 6-8 weeks after a dose change to retest, this is because it can take that long for levels to stabilise.

You need a Free T3 test as well as TSH and Free T4, T3 Uptake is not a test we do in the UK, and your T3 test looks like a Total T3 test which is not particularly useful.

Not what you're looking for?
