Is that a typo for your FT3 test on 11th April?

Your FT4 has gone down so it would be expected so see your FT3 lower as well.

No that’s my t3 is definitely gone up. I just get it at all.

In that case I imagine things haven't yet settled down from your Hashi's hyper swing.

Your high TSH is saying you need an increase yet your FT3 is saying you don't.

Unless my gp gave me wrong info. As she did say at 1st tsh 4.56. If that’s the case. What could that mean?

I think you need to get proper confirmation of your results. If you don't have online access to results then ask the receptionist for a print out, it's too easy to make mistakes when results are given verbally or if they are hand written.

Not what you're looking for?
