Advice needed with results

[Guest guest]

I have been feeling lethargic (again!!) and had my bloods checked. Am currently

on 125mcg Levothyroxine.

The results were:

TSH 3.87 (0.25 - 4.0)

Free T4 19 (11 - 22)

I wanted to try and up my dose to 150 mcg but the doctor refused. I pointed out

that my level of 3.87 was at the top end and i have felt better when it is lower

but she said that the Free T4 Level of 19 was more important a figure to look at

and as that was stable she would not increase my dose.

I have just read the press release by the society of endocrinology in the files

section and this has made me feel even more ii should up my dose.

My doctor was absolutely against it and also said i couldn't have my bloods

checked for another year! should i just up my dose myself??
