Hi everyone,
I had my levothyroxine increased to 100mcg in June (after having to fight for it!) And I am feeling so much better for it! If anyone could comment on my latest thyroid results and also Vitamin D, I'd appreciate it.
My latest blood test results with percentages from blood draw end Sep are:
TSH 0.27 μUI/mL (0,380-5,330)
fT4 1.17 ng/dL (0,54-1,24) 90%
fT3 2.98 pg/mL (2,5-3,9) 34%
Vitamin D 31.6 ng/mL (20-100)
ESR 43 (1-10)
I'm feeling mostly great at the moment apart from some flares on and off.
Am I right in thinking my thyroid hormone is quite good (for now)? T4 at 90% seems pretty optimal. I got these result online and am seeing the doctor this week, so I'm preparing for a fight when she sees TSH under range!
Vit D I last had tested in March, it was 33 at the time (up from 19 in Nov) and I was supplementing 4000IU a day until the end of July. So I assume it had continued to rise from there. But I was not supplementing for the two months until my blood test. I'm shocked that it fell to just below where I was in March! I also supplement Magnesium. I have restarted my Vitamin D supplementation, but can anyone tell me why vitamin D would drop so quickly? Anything that might help in raising and maintaining it?
B12 and folate were not tested, but were good last time they were and I have been supplements with Iggenus B-complex since then.
Thanks!
