Opinions please on recent thyroid results from Monitor my Health

[Maynan17]

Just received back this morning my Thyroid results including T3 which has never been tested to my knowledge from Monitor My Health .

These results are after I decided to take it upon myself to increase Levothyroxine from 75 to 100 mcg due to my GP and endocrine refusing to as per my original post .

Previous results taken by GP were :

T4 16.5 last checked in June 2022

TSH 0.84 in January 2023.

So as far as I can see from thevrecent results from MMH it has not had a detrimental affect to my health but appreciate any fellow sufferers opinions before I consider sending on latest results to my GP and try requesting again prescription for 100mcg considering I feel better for it!

TIA

Was test done early morning and last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test

FT4: 20.7 pmol/l (Range 12 - 22)

Ft4 87.00% through range

FT3: 4.2 pmol/l (Range 3.1 - 6.8)

Ft3 only 29.73% through range

Ideally both Ft4 and Ft3 would be around 70% through range

For good conversion of Ft4 to Ft3 we need OPTIMAL vitamin levels

Next test include getting vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12 levels tested

Yes last levothyroxine 24 hours before testing and taken 7:00am

As T3 not optimal I wonder if 100 mcg is not enough or I’m just a poor converter of T3?

When were vitamin levels last tested

What vitamin supplements are you currently taking

As you have Hashimoto’s are you on strictly gluten free diet and/or dairy free diet

[Maynan17 in reply to SlowDragon]

March 2023

Folate 9.6 (2.1 - 26.8)

Ferritin 213ug/L (13.0-150.0)

VitD 68.3 (>50)

January 2023

B12 316ng/L (197.0-771.0)

Been tested for gluten sensitivity last year and was negative so not on gluten free diet. Nor am I on dairy free and have never been tested for dairy intolerance.

I’m not currently on any vitamin supplements.

Thanks
