tremors

[Thyroid2468]

haven’t been to endocrine yet. Have hashimoto but only slightly raised TSH. Dies anyone else experience RLS or slight body vibrations? Trying to figure out if thyroid related… and if so, did anything help treat it?

Welcome to the forum Thyroid2468,

I experience tremors when my thyroid medication isn’t optimal. Can you share your thyroid blood tests with us ( TSH, FT4 and FT3, plus any antibody tests). Have you had key vitamins tested (ferritin, folate, B12 and Vit D)? Are you taking any thyroid medication/ if yes, how much and for how long.

[Thyroid2468 in reply to Buddy195]

Thank you for reply! I found out result right when my primary doc stopped taking my insurance and I was without doctor! So I am waiting for endocrine and new primary care. FSH 4.33

T4 1.03

Tiiodothyronine , Free Serum 2.4

TPO 138

Thyroxine binding globulin 20

Thyroglobulin Antibody 47.4

Ferritin 39

So no one has looked at this yet. hoping to get in within this or next week.

symptoms like weight gain and hair loss I attributed to menopause. But these weird tremors I wasn't sure.

Thyroid2468 can you give us the ranges (figures in brackets) after the numbers for TSH, T4 and Triidothyronine

[Buddy195 Administrator]

As crimple says, we need the ranges for each of the blood tests, as these can vary between laboratories. You can edit your post to add them (put in brackets after each reading). Are you taking/ ever taken thyroid medication?

[Thyroid2468]

TSH 4.33. range (0.27-4.20).

T4 1.03. range (0.82-1.77)

Tiiodothyronine , Free Serum 2.4 range(2.0-4.4)

TPO 138. range(0-34)

Thyroxine binding globulin 20 range(13-39)

Thyroglobulin Antibody 47.4 range(0.0-0.91)

Ferritin 39 range (15-150)

So no one has looked at this yet. hoping to get in within this or next week. So no meds for this.

Are you currently taking any thyroid replacement hormones?

Was test done early morning, ideally before 9am and (if taking levothyroxine) last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test

What vitamin supplements are you currently taking

[Thyroid2468]

I am not any any drugs, this is all new. I haven't seen a doctor yet regarding my new test results. Hoping to see someone soon. TSH was done early in the morning. Can't recall about other bloods. I just started to take iron, I take magnesium glycerinate 350 for a few months, vitamin D 2000 iu for approximately a year. melatonin 3mg.
