Test results before and after HC

[Guest guest]

Hi all, I've just received my latest results after starting self treating with HC 10mg morning and 5mg midday from the 14/10/08. Any thoughts welcome.

Levothyroxine increased 11/7/08 from 25 to 50 mg

Results from 23/09/08T4 128 (ref 58-150), TSH 5.37 high(0.4- 4.0). FT4 19.9 (10-22), FT3 7.79 high (2.8-6.5), FT4: FT3 Ratio 2.55 low (3.0-5), thyroglobulin anti bodies <20.0 (0-40), TPOab 549 (0-35)

started HC 14/10/08

Results from 18/11/08T4 105 (ref 58-150), TSH 3.62 high(0.4- 4.0). FT4 17.5 (10-22), FT3 6.39 (2.8-6.5), FT4: FT3 Ratio 2.74 low (3.0-5), thyroglobulin anti bodies <20.0 (0-40), TPOab 639 (0-35)

My T3 and TSH are now within the ref range but my T4 has also droped, I think I know why this is. I'd be interested in some other opinions?

Best wishes

PS. I have my first appointment with Dr P on 16 Dec :0), after I come back from holiday :0).
