Can anyone give me their opinion on these blood tests?

Diagnosed with Under Active Thyroid in October. Diagnosed with Hashimkto's mid December. Taking 75 mg Levothyroxine since October.

These were my December blood tests:

TPO = 487 (lab range <34. TSH = 5 (lab range 0.2-5) down from 48. T4= 23.8 (lab range 9-24)

T3 was not tested although it was requested

That's all I have. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

How are you feeling Diblin93? Do you have any adverse symptoms?Have you had key vitamins tested (folate, ferritin and Vit D) as having these optimal is so important.

Was out on 50,000 iu a week of vitamin D3 for 6 weeks in Oct. But the last blood test in December did not check but vit D. I've been on Lego for nearly 3 months and feel the same as I ever did.

I would test key vitamins privately if you can- ferritin, folate &D. I use Medichecks & tests are often discounted on Thursdays (unsure why!) You can then get T3 checked at same time, as then you will have a better picture of your thyroid health. When my key vitamins became more optimal, I felt much better.
