Hi I have just seen my blood results on Patient Access and have a GP appointment tomorrow. Just wondering if my results mean that I have Hypothyroidism? Under active thyroid?
-TSH 4.31 miu/L (normal range 0.27-4.2)
-T4 13.1 pmol/L (normal range 12-22)
I suffer with:
- Extreme Fatigue
-Weight gain! Put on 2 stone since March 2020 despite eating 1 meal a day and being conscious about eating healthy.
-Hair thinning / falling out
-Nails brittle / tearing
-Dry Skin
-Mood swings - real low periods
- Puffy face
-Swollen neck (just had neck ultrasound)
Just a feeling of being unwell and weak in the body!
I have an appointment scheduled with GP tomorrow and my Endocrinologist is due to call later this afternoon- as I also have a micro pituitary tumor (not sure if this is related).
I also have a lot of hormones below the normal range: DHEAS / Androgen Free Index / Testosterone.
I am 47 and not currently peri-menopausal. I am regular as clockwork every month. I do however have 4.8cm x 4cm cyst on my right ovary which has apparently been there since 2017!
Just feeling wretched and wanting to feel better! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
TSH Blood result attached. I also have low Folate which is being investigated as been like this for nearly 2 years now despite taking Folic Acid. Not sure if it’s related?
Folate - 2.2 ug/L (Normal range 3.9-26.8)
Thanks in advance x
