Hello all
I would love some thoughts on the below levels since starting Carbimozle and making major changes in my life. Does this look good? I have Hashimoto and graves anti bodies, which started off with graves disease. I really appreciate any help you can provide.
FREE T3 FREE T4 TSH tsh antibody
31/10/2024 15.1 1.39
25-Apr 9.8 0.02
10th may 11.5 35.9 0.01 6.16
15th may 9.3 29.3 3.13
23-May 7.3 22.4 0.02
20th June 3.1 8.5 0.05
14th July 3.6 7.4 1.4
14TH Aug 4 9.5 1.17
That’s confusing.
Can you show results like this?
Date (including time or am / pm, if you have)
Dose regimen prior to test ( eg 10mg carbimazole dose prescribed 6 weeks prior to test)
Item, result, lab range
Eg
TSH <0.01 (0.35 - 3.50) (Lab ranges vary, so necessary with each result)

Thank you for your time!
Are you currently on carbimazole, if so what dose?
Just replied - Carbimozle 5mg in the week and 10mg on the weekend. Does that sound right?
Thank you btw xx
dose prior to latest test - 5mg in the week and 10mg on the weekend
“TS4 7.4 (RANGE 2.0-22.0)
TS3 3.6 (RANGE 3.1 - 6.8)”
Assume this is FT4 & FT3 & common FT4 range is (12 - 22)
If range is same
FT4: 7.4 pmol/l (Range 12 - 22) -46.00%
FT3: 4 pmol/l (Range 3.1 - 6.8) 24.32%
FT4 is below range & FT3 quite low in range. Most feel well with mod range levels. How do you feel? Do you have any symptoms?
I’d be looking to reduce to 5mg every other day to allow frees to rise if feeling hypo symptoms.
Discuss with doctor & retest in 6 weeks time.
If range is different this won’t apply.
Please layout like this including ranges as different labs have different ranges
Date - Aug 14tb
Dose Carbimazole
TSH 1.17 (2-4.8)
Ft4 9.5 (12-22)
Ft3 4 ( 3.1-6.8)
Essential to also test vitamin D, folate, B12 and ferritin
When were these last tested
What vitamin supplements are you taking

Vitamin D levels were low 3 months ago,
I have been taking 2000 vitamin d selenium, ashwaganda, chlorella, turmeric, vitamin c, maca
Carbimozle 5mg during the week
10mg on weekends
Thank you
I would agree with PurpleNails
Discuss reducing Carbimazole further
And looking at very high TPO antibodies you may have Hashimoto’s as well as Graves’ disease
You need to retest vitamin D and test B12, folate and ferritin
Hey SlowDragon and PurpleNails
Completely agree, I have asked for the above blood tests and will find out next week! Thank you for your assistance.
Really appreciate it!
