Thyroid Test Results Calculators

[helvella]

Two calculators have been written especially for members to use. Use whichever works for you! Or both.

Many thanks to Decant and FancyPants54's husband for writing them and making them available.

This post is simply to combine the links to both calculators in one post

The attached image shows both calculators.

Please see my own replies below which explain how you can very easily copy and paste results from these calculators into your own posts without needing to use screenshots, etc.

thanks for sharing

Helvella, thank you! I had forgotten about the Chingkerrs calculator, (despite having it bookmarked 😆). Would it seem too ungrateful to ask if it can be modified to include fT3 ÷ fT4 calculation so that it can be used in conjuction with Midgley et al's research: 'variation in the biochemical response to l-thyroxine therapy and relationship with peripheral thyroid hormone conversion efficiency '?

Thank you too to FancyPants54 and hubbie: I frequently use and recommend your calculator.

Just trying to reply quickly - did you read the previous discussions with  Decant and others about what might be desirable enhancements?

I'm happy for people to reply here but might well delete replies at some point.

This was intended to simplify and not digress into details discussions!

[BB001 in reply to helvella]

Oops, sorry to digress! No I haven't read the previous discussion with Decant et al I got an email notification that you had posted and came straight to this post. I could easily spend all day on Healthunlocked, unfortunately the demands of life get in the way!

[helvella in reply to BB001]

Link to original post is above!

[BB001 in reply to helvella]

I've searched and I can't find the discussion even when I click on Decant to see their posts

[BB001 in reply to helvella]

🤔 just spotted the link!

[BB001 in reply to helvella]

I'm now off to read the discussion, but I really ought to be cooking dinner.

On thyroid.chingkerrs.online/, enter your numbers, then click the Copy button at the bottom. That will copy the text (which you can already see in the results box). And Paste that into your post.

Like this:

TSH 1.25 mIU/L (0.3 - 3.45) 30.2%

Decant has now posted this:

Hi,

I am the author of the Blood Test Calculators. I have just created a short YouTube video on using it, including a nifty new feature.

Video: youtu.be/WChp3gTToUM(Not working as expected?)

Calculators: thyroid.chingkerrs.online/

I hope you find the video useful.

I suggest you watch the video in a good sized window in order to fully appreciate it.

On thyroid.dopiaza.org/, enter your numbers, then click the Copy button. That will copy the text (which you can already see to the left of the button). And Paste that into your post.

Like this:

TSH: 1.25 mU/l (Range 0.3 - 3.45) 30.16%

You will need to copy and paste each line separately but that should only take moments longer.

cbraffe - as promised - here you are - check the 2 options above - chingkerr or dopiaza -

and thank goodness for Helvella - the life saver collating all these things for us :

[cbraffe in reply to pennyannie]

Thank you.

As my other post suggests I haven't a clue how to use it. Too ill and too old now.

[RedApple in reply to Brightness14]

These are the instructions for the calcuator on this page thyroid.chingkerrs.online:

Using the calculator

Input values for the result and also for the min and max range

If both min and max are entered then the calculator shows the % of the result through the range

Copy the results to the clipboard using the "Copy" button; then paste them elsewhere

In other words, enter the values from your own test results (i.e. your personal number plus the range numbers). The calculator will give you your test result as a percentage through range.

Example: Your test came back as a TSH 2.8, range 0.4.- 4.5

Entering those numbers in the relevant boxes gives a value of 58.5% (see screenshot attached)

Some people find this helpful to understanding how their current medication dose is working for them, based on their test results.

[pennyannie in reply to Brightness14]

Oh - I don't use these calculators - I use a pencil and paper and have an old Cassio hand held calculator with large enough buttons and visuals - to check myself on.

[cbraffe]

Thanks.

[Brightness14]

I cannot see it I only have the use of one eye and feel to ill sorry. I don't know how to do it.

I will look through some old posts and try to find the answer thank you.

[pennyannie in reply to Brightness14]

What are you trying to do ?

[RedApple in reply to Brightness14]

Brightness14, I have tried to help in reply to your comment here healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

[helvella in reply to RedApple]

I have gone back to the original post and used the calculator here to work out the percentages. And pasted them in a reply there.

My intent had been to provide Brightness14 with guidance on how to work them out thinking that gives her the ability to apply the same technique to any results.

It was not at all clear that there were additional issues - and her reply to pennyannie here was missed by me.

I have managed to sort it out now, thank you for all your help.
