Hi everyone
I just had an increase of Synthroid about 8-9 weeks back cause I thought maybe I was a bit too Hypo and not feeling well. I have been pretty stable (below 5) for the past 2-3 years but I thought I could bring my TSH down a bit when one lab report put it at 5.07
I went from 1.25mg to 1.37mg and for some reason my TSH went up instead of down. Am I reading this wrong or am I not going even more hypo?
Starting to have vision trouble. Hard to focus and fixate on something. My eyes wander and I feel lightheaded or like I have Vertigo.
Is it possible that the extra meds are just leaving too much TSH unabsorbed in my blood, thus increasing my levels. Kinda like when I was first diagnosed Hypo/Hashi and my TSH was >100. The Thyroid hormone in my blood was to the extreme. Or am I just barking up the wrong tree?
RANGES:
TSH (0.30 - 4.70 mIU/L) FREE T4 ( 9.1 - 23.8 pmol/L) FREE T3 ( 2.5 - 5.7 pmol/L)
PRIOR RESULTS SUGESTING AN INCREASE IN SYNTHROID:
0.125 mg
TSH = 5.08
Free T4 = 13.7
Free T3 = 4.5
TODAYS RESULTS AFTER 8-9 WEEKS
0.137 mg
TSH = 8.49
Free T4 = 14.3
Free T3 = 3.7
