I have been taking Thyronorm 12.5 mcg for two months. Due to severe tiredness and sleepy feeling, I repeated TSH and Free T4 tests. TSH is 8.02 (Ref 0.4 to 4.2) and Free T4 is 1.17 (Ref 0.89 to 1.76). Previously, Anti Tg Antibody was high and TPO was normal. I am having tingling in both palms and feet. Fasting blood sugar is 82. I am taking Concor 5 mg for hypertension. Do I require a dose revision or further consultation?

Your TSH is still high (8.02) despite taking Thyronorm 12.5 mcg, suggesting the dose may be too low. Free T4 is in normal range, but the continued tiredness, sleepiness, and tingling need attention. The tingling in hands and feet may be due to Vitamin B12 or nerve issues. With a history of high Anti Tg antibodies, you likely have autoimmune thyroiditis.

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test or Take a HbA1c Test (Hemoglobin A1c) Test

I am under medication with 150 mg thyroxine for the past 8 months. Recently I took a blood report 15 days back which shows TSH 0.41, T3 3.9, and T4 1.05. Can you please tell me if these values are normal or not?

Hello I am a 25 year old female. I had my second child over a year ago and I noticed I was gaining more weight while feeling tired with high anxiety. What concerns me is that it has been over a year now and I drink over a gallon of water a day with a very healthy diet along with exercising three to four times a week but I have absolutely no weight loss only weight gain. My energy has diminished and it is now affecting my work. I have brittle hair that is slowly falling out along with body hair growth such as on the chin cheeks and breast. I also noticed my voice is much deeper with a slight rasp and it feels as if my throat is constantly swollen. I am not a smoker. I received blood work where only TSH and testosterone were tested. Based on my previous TSH results there seems to be an increase. Is there a reason to be concerned with my results? My TSH results are 1.740, 1.438, 2.063 and 2.856. Sex hormone binding globulin is 49 nmol per L. Testosterone is 18 ng per dL. Free testosterone is 2.4 pg per mL.
