Hi again could you please help so confused done a Medichecks blood test 6 week from last nhs test see previous post when tsh was 7 and dr increased thyroxine
Seems so different can anyone help please?
Kind regards kate x
CRP 2.5mg (0-5)
Ferritin 166ug (13-150)
B12 174 (25.1-165)
Vit D 110 (50-200)
Folate SAMPLE ERROR
TSH 0.63 (027-4.2)
FREE T3 3.9 (3.1-6.8
FREE THYROXINE
17.6 (12-22)
THYROGLOBIN ANTIBODIES
25.5 0-115
TPA ANTIBODIES
130 0-34
Was test done as early as possible in morning before eating or drinking anything other than water and last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test
Which brand of levothyroxine are you currently taking
Is this always same brand at each prescription
What vitamin supplements are you currently taking
Vitamin levels look good
High thyroid antibodies confirms autoimmune thyroid disease also called Hashimoto’s
Presumably you knew that you have Hashimoto’s ?
Have you had coeliac blood test done
If not get tested before trialing strictly gluten free diet, if not already gluten free
Ft4 is only 56% through range
Ft3 currently very low at 22% through range
Helpful calculator for working out percentage through range
At moment GP will only look at low TSH and refuse to increase dose
Suggest you retest again in another 8 weeks
Likely to see TSH rising so can get next dose increase in levothyroxine
Most people when adequately treated will have Ft4 at least around 60-70% through range and Ft3 at least 50% through range
See if Ft3 is improving at next test
Answers yes to questions except coeliac blood test not done
Still symptoms fatigue breathless anxiety hope they resolve now tsh come down I am trying to cut out gluten and give it a try got NHS blood test in 5 week
Many thanks for your kind help
