Let me guess, this doctor is older? Most nowadays order Free T4, not Total T4.
Make an appointment with a different doctor and ask about Free T3, Free T4, and the antibodies. Write down all of your symptoms, and if they don't want to run these tests, ask what else they think could be causing the symptoms.
Hi desertmeow ty for your reply went this morning here is doing a anti body test and t3 after me breaking down in floods of tears he also put me on anti depressents and wants me to see someone from the mentle health lol ummm when will docs learn its the sympotoms thats making us depressed not life anyway hope it shows something then at least i will get some sort of answers I will keep u posted of the results my iron is nine vit d is low and b12 is 400 he said b12 is normal though i have read on here it should be at least 600 anyway im on iron now lets hope this stops the hair loss befor i need a hair piece lol got to laugh
Hi - I was told my TSH was high in my recent blood work. My doctor increased my synthroid dosage from 0.05mg to 0.75mg daily. It's only been a weak but I feel worse now....is it possible it could be the synthroid that quickly? I am sleeping for 16 hours at a time and wake up tired. I also have a headache that makes me want to scream. Any insight,,,,,anyone??
thanks
gosh well u def high hav u had ur t3 and ani bodies done an ur irob b12 vit -d all these need to be done becuz if they are low any meds ur on for thyroid will not work ur iron vit d and b12 hav to be in the normal ranges hope this help
u will feel like that if its thyroid it takes few weeks for meds to work u start to feel worse before better but it will happen an u will start to feel ur normal self again how old are u if u dont minfd me asking have u had your hormones checked to see if u perimenopausal or menopausal cuz tyroid and menopause have very similar symptoms
