Hi I am hoping one of you more experienced people can help me move forward with my medication. I am currently on 75mcg Levo and 30mcg T3. I am greatly improved especially mentally - much calmer and no anxiety or feelings of panic. My weight has stopped piling on may even be reducing a wee bit - I no longer weigh myself as too depressing but go by how my clothes fit. I had to reduce from 100mcg to 75mcg (I was on 25mcg T3 at time) as I had fast heart rate that was quite disturbing. I then found myself with hypo symptoms creeping in and my private endo suggested a 5mcg increase to 30mcg and things seemed to settle again.
I am still incredibly tired and without much energy. Not as bad as I was as I don't often take to my bed now although my sleep is horrendous and I can't seem to find anything other than medication (that the GP will no prescribe) to help.
I am also quite achy which is unusual for me.
My questions re my Medicheck results are - see image.
The lab noted my folate results although in range are very low. This of course could explain my lack of energy. Should I supplement and if so by how much?
My TSH is very low but I guess that is expected - the GP won't like it but the endo will probably be ok. Should I be considering a calcium supplement?
My T4 is just below range but I would be reluctant to increase it to 100mcg pd because of what happened previously. Should I consider taking an extra 25mcg every other day?
What happens to T4 blood results when people are on mono T3 therapy? I sometimes feel that Levo is my problem and if I should consider trying T3 alone.
My antibodies are high. I have read here before that people feel better when these levels are lower. How do I reduce them? What would be a more reasonable figure given that I suspect they will always be above normal with my condition.
I am not gluten free. I limit my gluten but I didn't feel any different to when I tried a gluten free diet for a few months.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
