Latest results. Advice needed please.

[Guest guest]

Hi all, I hope everyone is doing ok.

I have just had some more bloods done but I need some advice please.

My GP has freaked out thinking I'm gonna have a heart attack if I

increase my LevoT. I need to increase it as I'm still getting most of

my HypoT symptoms. Because my TSH is low though he won't up my T4.

I have put 3 sets of results on here.

(Started 25mcg IN JUNE 08. Initial results PRIOR TO ANY MEDS TSH 3.6

FT4 11.8 FT3 5.2)

15th SEPT 08 ON 100mcg T4

TSH 0.18 (0.3 - 5.5)

FT4 19.0 (11 - 24)

FT3 5.2 (3.5 - 6.7)

I kept on getting hot flushes and profuse sweating. I guessed the T4

was pooling so I requested T3 which has now stopped those problem.

13TH OCT 08 ON 50mcg T4 & 10mcg T3

TSH 0.27 (0.3 - 5.5)

FT4 12.8 (11 - 24)

FT3 4.6 (3.5 - 6.7)

Recent bloods

17TH NOV 08 0N 100mcg T4 & 20mcg T3

TSH <0.1 (0.3 - 5.5)

FT4 16.2 (11 - 24)

FT3 5.7 (3.5 - 6.7)

To date I'm still on 100 mcg T4, 20mcg T3

-- Any ideas as to why my TSH is so low yet the T4 is still not

optimal. Do I increase T4 and decrease T3?

-- Would RT3 feature in this (asked GP,he'd never heard of RT3 - go

figure!!)

-- I'm on 3 x NAE and 2 NT. My average daily temps are 98.2 - 98.6 but

can fluctuate now and then. My ferritin has gone up to 80 from 10.

-- What do the results mean to the experts on here as I don't know

what to do next.

Thank you from a confused person!!!
