Hi all,
These were done at 10:30am, so a bit later than ideal. I was on 75mcg of levothyroxine at the time. Before I got the results the Dr already gave me a prescription for 100 mcg, which I have now been taking for around a week:
Free Thyroxine: 15.31 pmol/L [10.4 - 19.4 pmol/L]
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone: 0.937 mIU/L [0.55 - 4.78 mIU/L]
Free T3: 5.63 pmol/L [2.6 - 7.1 pmol/L]
Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies: >1300 U/mL [<60 U/mL]
Thyroglobulin Antibody: 2.5 U/mL [4.4 IU/mL.]
Triiodothyronine (T3): 1.98 ng/mL [0.6 - 1.81 ng/mL]
T4: 140.4 nmol/L [59 - 154 nmol/L]
The Drs comments were:
"As you can see from the results your TPO antibodies are still high, so you are obviously still in the active phase of Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Your TSH is quite suppressed and your T4 high in range and T3 just above normal range, if you get sweaty or have palpitations we may need to reduce the thyroxine a little. Keep an eye on your symptoms and let us know how things go".
Interested in hearing your thoughts. I'm going to work on increasing my vitamin and iron levels.
