Blood Test Results Help Please

4 Replies

I have just got my blood test results back.

I was diagnosed with Hashimotos Thyroiditis in 1994.

My TSH is low & my T4 is low in the range. The lab refused to test my T3.

My Folate is low & I feel my B12 is at the low end of the range (to feel well).

My GP has just texted me re the Folate, but ignored the flagging up of the thyroid.

I am taking 100pmcg of Levothyroxine & 10mcg of Liothyronine per day. Extra 25mcg of Levothyroxine every other day.

Been feeling very tired, depressed, constantly headache, eye problems etc.

Yes, your folate and B12 are desperately low... no thyroid results to see though?

So your fT4 is still very low and no result for your fT3?

The lab wouldn't test for T3.

Crazy isn't it... your fT4 at 25% could be your issue as most people find they need it above 50% so you might want to try adding a little more?
