New blood tests

[Badmintonteresas]

Following my recent post on palpation thyroiditis

These are my new results

TSH 3.68 (.27 to 4.2)

T4 15.9( 10 to 21)

T3 4.5 (3.5 to 6.5)

Any ideas for going forward

I have multiple symptoms of which joint pain is very distressing

Did you get calcium, PTh and vitamin D retested together yet

You can download this app, costs £2-3.

Put your calcium, vitamin D and PTH blood test results in and it can diagnose where your levels are now

It looks as though you are under medicated if you are on treatment

[Badmintonteresas in reply to mistydog]

I am not on any medication not been diagnosed yet

[mistydog]

Ah OK. In which case if you can do as advised, get tested early, fasting and drinking only water, hopefully your TSH will show high enough for treatment.

Thanks I was hoping my thyroid was covering Better levels of t4 t3 the same Could this be a blip as I was sleep deprived. Going to see an endo tomorrow I will see what he says bone pain in hips and lower back really bad but it flips about to different places in body so fed up with it I want my life back.

When I was diagnosed in 2004, the range of TSH was from 3. Mine was 3.14 so it was only just out. The range has now changed. I think that your TSH is too high. But getting a diagnosis with everything in range is very difficult these days. Perhaps it might be worth having a private test to measure your antibodies.
