Hello clever people, I wonder if someone could cast an eye on my latest blood results. Taken last week approx 9am with only water (no levothyroxine) - however I only stopped b vitamins including biotin 4 days prior to test.
TSH 0.96 (0.27-4.2)
FT3 2.9 (2-4.4)
FT4 1.18 (0.93-1.7)
I am currently on just 62.5mg levo, creeping up from a starter dose of 25mg in May '23. The dose increases by 12.5mg each time so far. Should I ask for a 25mg increase?
In a recent referral letter from my doctor she said the aim was to get TSH to approx 1
So I'm now worried that I won't get the dose increase I'm sure I need.
In the past weeks I've had creeping return of symptoms including anxiety & irritation, fatigue, feeling hypoglycaemic when I try to work (I'm a 60 year old market gardener :/) , sleeplessness, cold (though to be fair it is freezing atm). I should say that luckily my symptoms have never been as severe as many sufferers on this forum.
I take Thorne B complex, selenium, magnesium, vit D+K spray daily.
A side question - how do you work out percentage of results within the range please?
Also - how do you know if you convert T4 badly?
Comments very gratefully received, thanks in advance x
