Anaemia? Latest labs

[Guest guest]

Hiya my friends

Wondering if you would be good enough to give opinions on latest labs. Dr hasn't

called me in but vit D test aint back yet. Am I anaemic?

Also is it bad to have lowish T4? I don't know the benefits of adding on

thyroxine. Last time it seemed to drop my blood sugar like a stone cos of

adrenals. What do u usually top it up for? What conditions?

here they are, my labs

lotsa luv

Hi Dawn, Have a look at http://www.labtestsonline.com for the other tests, but both T4 nd T3 are quite a way from the top of the range. how one copes with T4 depends on how well you can convert. I find that if my T4 is much above yours I get joint pain, but I need a socking great amount of T3 on top of my Armour. Others feel better with adding T4 instead. As you seem very sensitive to meds all you can do is make tiny changes and see how it goes- keeping a careful diary so you don't lose track. I'd try T3 instead of T4. I don't think that T4 matters as it's is pretty inert until converted as long as you have enough T3. > thyroid treatment > From: stfluffybrain@...> Date: Thu, 24 Dec 2009 02:11:32 +0000> Subject: Anaemia?

Hi Dawn,

Sorry you are feeling rough, I am not much good with test results but wanted to

wish you well. I wonder if you feel worse cos doing more than usual with

Christmas? I did as you told me last time I felt bad and upped the T4 by

another 25 mcg at night and it is definatley helping me sleep- total of 50 mcg

daily now. Course still taking the T3, 30 mcg split dose morning and t time.

Don't let them question your mental state when you are helping me and others.

Big Hugs Luv Stephie

Thanks too Tess and Steph

mm gall bladder possible yes Tess that would sort of make sense I vomit

sometimes after fatty food, thanks hope urs is better Tess xxx

Also yes i might hae overdone it Steph and its very cold too, perhaps I shall

split a 25mcg thyroxine in half and try that while the weather so bad. Am trying

to keep the iron away from the TH, not easy.

Have a healthy new year and luv the hugs, right back at ya

Dawnx
