TSH 4.13

[Diana58]

I’m wondering if my doctor should have not treated me!

When I was diagnosed

My TSH was 4.13

I felt great

Then all down hill

🤔

Are you on levothyroxine or NDT?

The aim of Levothyroxine is to increase the dose slowly in 25mcg steps upwards until TSH is under 2 (many patients need TSH significantly under one) and most important is that FT4 is in top third of range and FT3 at least half way through range

If TSH is over 2 you need dose increase

All four vitamins need to be regularly tested and frequently need supplementing to maintain optimal levels
