Guest guest Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Sorry I have not posted in awhile. I have been pretty ill as of late. I finally had my doctor give me all my blood tests and numbers from the last several times I have been in over the last 6 months. I also had her test me for Celiacs and Epstein Barr Virus. Well I do not have Celiacs. But I do have EBV. Is there anyone else here who has EBV? Well my numbers on EBV are through the roof! My doctor has definately proved herself to be an idiot too. I am on the search for a new doc, as I was once before! I am going to lay some numbers on you, see if you can tell me how to interpret these, as I think I may be interpreting them myself! When I was tested on 11/29/07 TSH 2.110 LAB REF .350-5.500 T3 FREE 2.70 LAB REF 2.70-4.20 T4 FREE .83 LAB REF .89-1.76 The doc then put me on .05mg of levothyroxine once a day and retested in 6 weeks. Here are those results TSH .826 T3 FREE 2.90 T4 FREE 1.15 Why does my TSH go down so much? I still feel like crap, I don't know if it's the Hashi's or the EBV, but my doctor is an idiot! I am so tired,but I can't stay asleep at night, and I went from having chronic constipation, to having chronic diareaha, anyway, any advice, or what you all might think? Thanx, Alana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I also have EBV, have had it since 17 and I'm now 62. I don't know if mine is active at any particular time or not, but think it could be part of why I can't seem to get optimized on either thyroid or HC (for stage 7 adrenal insufficiency). I also don't know what to say about your TSH, except it lowering is a good thing. My personal goal is to get my TSH to 0.1 or around that, to be sure the antibodies are shut down. sol alanavee wrote: Is there anyone else here who > has EBV?
