Please help! Thyroid confusion!!
How is my endocrinologist telling me a free t3 of 2.1 (2.0-4.9) is normal? I have every hypo symptom you can imagine. 2.1 is a very low free t3 level, correct? My tsh is 2.2 (.5-4.5) Free t4 is 1.1 (.8-1.8) TPO 13 What would be my best course of action? I need more t3, correct? My t4 is not converting

IFAB negative - should I pursue diagnosis?
Hi I'm new here and was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to proceed with my GP? I'm 55 years old and for the last year or so I have been suffering from hot flashes, extreme fatigue, depression, palpitations and back pain. I had a heart attack 6 years ago so my GP investigated for heart arrythmia

So fed up with patronising doctors
I’ve been exhausted and unable to work for a year and a half. The slow progression into illness seriously started just over 2.5 years ago. I have TPO antibodies and LOADS of hypo symptoms (and have for years even when well) but I’m not overweight and my blood tests aren’t low enough for them to pay

Conversion Issues
I went off all thyroid meds, per doc’s orders because she said the doc that prescribed me meds in the first place shouldn’t have because my tsh was 2.0. Now off meds for 4 months my TSH 2.2 (.5-4.5) Free t4 1.1 (.8-1.8) Free t3 2.1 (2.0- 4.9) TPO- 13 (<9) Needless to say I feel like complete crap,

Tgb/Tpo + suppressed TSH
I'm trying so hard to understand thyroid function and results, reading links here and googling. but still struggling. If TSH is deemed "suppressed" but FT4 and FT3 are 'within range' and Tpo is high (well above range) with Tgb on low side of range does that clearly show a definite diagnosis? Should

Suppressed T4 and TSH on NDT
Hello I ordered some blood tests from Thriva and sent them in last Monday. Whilst the experience has been very efficient, the lancets provided in the kit really hurt my fingers and I had to wear plasters for five days! I was disappointed to see that my T4 was still so low in the range. I take 1.5 grains

Suppressed TSH but still under medicated?
I was living in the US and took compounded slow release combined thyroid medication for a number of years (T4 60mcg T3 33mcg) which gave me reasonable labs and I felt pretty ok for energy. Since moving back to the UK I have been switched over to synthetic hormones. Doc put me on levothyroxine 62.5mcg
