Thanks for your reply I rang them this morning but they wouldn’t sort anything out over the phone I’ve had to go to a new system anima and do it on there , so it’s the waiting game but thanks again
Retest thyroid levels again 6 weeks after finishing antibiotics
Antibiotics will affect your thyroid test results
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, lowest FT4 and most consistent results. (Patient to patient tip)
T3 ….day before test split T3 as 2 or 3 smaller doses spread through the day, with last dose approximately 8-12 hours before test
That’s what I had done finished antibiotics left it 2 weeks then had blood test ,I would like to try a little more t3 as it’s still only 4.5 (3.1-6.8) thanks
