    Last month’s labs:
    2/13/13

    TSH: 4.610 (0.270-4.200)
    FT3: 2.2 (2.0-4.4)
    FT4: 0.49 (0.93-1.70)

    Current labs:
    3/13/13

    TSH: 2.75
    FT3: 3.8
    FT4: 0.62

    So just waiting to see what my new endo says. I’ve gotta look up January’s labs to see the the trend. Most likely hyper, hypo, hyper–as usual! :rolleyes:

    I think you might have accidently typed in your FT3 and FT4 backwards.

    Your doing fantastic with your labs, they are looking great. Your FT3 is lagging behind a tad but that is to be expected and should rise as you level off. Your TSH isn’t suppressed and that’s wonderful, your very lucky!

    I did look up your previous labs:

    Your almost there with current labs, but like I said your FT3 are lagging and that’s ok, but you probably feel it – tired etc. I would probably ask your doctor about conversion issues just to be safe – I say this because your FT3 has remained low in trend. Most people feel better when its higher, more energy, less weight gain etc.

    @Naisly
    – You might not “care what anyone says”, but we do respectfully request that members here honor the guidelines that have been put in place by the Graves’ Disease & Thyroid Foundation’s Board of Directors. To do otherwise is like being invited in to the home of a non-smoker…and then lighting up in their living room. :( There are plenty of other forums online that have a more open policy if you prefer that format, but the downside is that you might not get the level of credible, balanced information that is available here.

    Everyone here needs to make a choice as to where they would like to invest their online time and energy.
