You need FULL thyroid and vitamin testing 6-8 weeks after any dose change or brand change in levothyroxine

It’s 50mcg (not 50mg)

You know you have Hashimoto’s

For full Thyroid evaluation you need TSH, FT4 and FT3 tested

Very important to test vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12

Low vitamin levels are extremely common when hypothyroid, especially with Hashimoto’s

Low B12 = tinnitus

Low iron or ferritin = breathless

Recommended that all thyroid blood tests early morning, ideally just before 9am, only drink water between waking and test and last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test

This gives highest TSH and lowest FT4

Where are you?

Answers depend on your location. Maybe add your country to your profile?

Tirosint is sold under several different brand names which might also be important.

helvella's medicines documents (UK and Rest of the World) can be found here:
