Thyroid Test Results & Iodine

[Guest guest]

Hi ALL, Genova Diagnostics recently carried out a Thyroid Test on me and the

following results came back.

TSH 2.5 MIU/L(ref 1-2) HIGH

FT4 20.5 pmol/L (ref 12-20) HIGH

FT3 2.9 pmol/L (ref 3.4-6.0) LOW

FT4:FT3 Ratio 7.0 (ref 2.5-4.0) HIGH

My GP does not seem interested in looking into it any further so I have been

left to sort it out myself.

It would appear from my results that I seem to have a conversion problem, is

Iodine likely to resolve this or am I best getting more tests done? as I am

wanting to normalise my results one way or another. Would a cortisol test likely

help me get to the bottom of the problem.

Any advice would be most appreciated as it seem as though I have stepped into a

minefield trying to sort this out.

Cheers

Mark
