This is my last blood tests- as I’ve said before I’m now on 150mg of levothyroxine. I now have an appt this week with an endocrinologist. As I can’t have a general anaesthetic as my levels aren’t within their acceptable range.
Last year my Tsh was 38 which my gp didn’t notice until I questioned this a few months ago. Weight still piling on BMI now 41. Any advice welcome as this is ruining my quality of life given the surgery which I need to have done.
When did you take your last dose of Levo before the test?
The day before as it was a pre 9am blood test. (Have a double appointment as it can be a pain to get a vein)
So your FT4 is slightly high but one would expect a lower TSH with that.
No FT3 test?
What about thyroid antibodies - have these been tested, do you have Hashimoto's?
There were a lot of questions asked and suggestions made when you posted originally on the forum last December (and again when you posted a week or so ago) but you didn't respond to them:

Sorry for not replying earlier I have not been very well at all with other health issues. I have been waiting to see face to face this endocrinologist as my local one I was with basically said I had vitamin D and ? Calcium was a bit low but not as low as the vitamin d.My brain fog is bad most days . I have been back and to the GP’s who just run thes specific blood tests.
Antibodies and B12 ferratin I think it’s called and others haven’t been run for 18 months I think that was after speaking online to the endocrinologist at Salford.
I think I’ve got hypo parathyroidism as I’ve got a few of the symptoms.
Finally I’ve got an urgent appointment tomorrow with an endocrinologist (the one who cancelled my appt for next month to March next year)..
So I should get more answers and hopefully some help.
I’ve got pharangyl pouch behind my thyroid gland which can’t be surgically removed due to other co morbidities!.
Hashimotos - I did ask the local endocrinologist about that and he was very dismissive of my questioning about it .I’m very worried as last year my TSH was 38 and nothing was done by my gp and they didn’t say anything to rectify it.
Hopefully tomorrow I will get answers the endocrinologist who I’m seeing said on his phone call last year about -? Suppression test my gp didn’t give me that tablet which I was to take at midnight and the next day pre 9am blood test? What’s that for?
Any advice and help welcomed as ive now been passed to the practice pharmacist to sort
