Hi all, I wrote a few weeks ago querying my husband's dose of levothyoxine

(50mcgs). He has been on Amiodarone, after a mitral valve replacement in 2003,

which meant that eventually his thyroid was affected and he was put on 50mcgs

thyroxine about two years ago. As I felt that he was too tired and too cold we

got his blood tested but as it was in range then the FT3 was not done by the

lab. Here are his results which I think are rather high. What do you think?

Peroxidase antibodies= 5 (<35), serum FT4= 20 (12-22) and TSH 2.14 (0.3-4.2). As

he has a mechanical heart valve I can't see his GP changing his thyroxine dose

if his levels are " in range " . He's also on Warfarin and hypertensive drugs. Many

thanks for any suggestions....
