Do you think it’s worth getting my bloods done again before my consultation with the endo?

If it is a private endo then yes. If it is an NHS endo then they may just dismiss non NHS tests.

I’m seeing him urgently due to a private blood test.

In that case if he wants more tests he will request them at the appt.

Previous results only a month ago

TSH too high

FT4: 19.5 pmol/l (Range 12 - 22)

Ft4 75% through range

Ft3 below range

Did GP increase dose levothyroxine after these results ?
