Hashimotos

Just got my latest blood results back, can you tell me if these are ok. T4 17.5, TSH 0.08. all my other results are ok including my Vit. D that's come back after taking supplements as 101.0, I can't believe how much better I feel. I have got Hashimotos and I know these results will fluctuate. My results from March 2020 were T4 16.5 and TSH 0.17 and at that point the doctor wanted to reduce my 125mcg but I told him no.

Thanks in anticipation

We can't interpret your thyroid results without their reference ranges, so if you can add them we will be able to comment.

Vit. D that's come back after taking supplements as 101.0,

You have just scraped into the recommended range of 100-150nmol/L. You now need to continue supplementing D3 (with important cofactors magnesium and Vit K2-MK7) at a dose to keep your level within that range.

FT4: 17.5 (12-22)

TSH: 0.08 (0.27-4.2)

Your FT4 is 55% through it's range, not as high as many people on Levo would need but if you feel well at that level then that's fine, we're all different where we need our hormone levels to be.

Your TSH is low, which your GP wont like and is probably the reason he wants to lower your dose.

I take it FT3 wasn't tested?

If your GP wants to lower your dose, point out that your FT4 is only 55% through range and doesn't indicate the necessity to lower your dose of Levo, and that you would want FT3 testing at the same time as FT4 because you understand that it's the FT3 result which tells us whether we are overmedicated.
