It's official. My thyroid is completely f*ed up. I got my TSH levels back - 0.02. They were .38 one month ago. My thyroid levels are high and keep going up, pretty quickly. My T3 and T4 levels were too high.
This is the exact result I didn't want. We're waiting on a couple more tests to come back before we set up our next step. I don't know where we're going from here, but I dont like the options.
Why can't things be easy for once? ![]()
Edit - sorry I should mention that now I'm hyperthyroid - the options get ugly from here (anti-thyroid meds, radioactive iodine (TTA for up to a year), or thyroid surgery). I will have a follow-up with the doc to discuss which route to take and additional testing to find out why it's hyper. The reason may dictate the plan.

Read about it on the blog
2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

Oh, Lavril, I'm so sorry
I know this was something you were looking into. I know it's hard to think of a bright side right now but at least this could be an answer into your loss maybe?
Are they thinking hypothyroid/hoshimoto disase? I have several family members with that so if you have any questions let me know. My sister just got dx 2 years ago and it's been a struggle for her but she's doing really well now. She's taking medication as well as doing holistic therapies.
HUGS! I hope you can find a solution/treatment you are comfortable with. Please let me know if you need anything.

I am so sorry! I hope that you & your doctor can figure out an option that works for both of you.

I am so sorry your results weren't what you hoped for. I hope that they can figure things out for you!
I have hypothyroidism and I take a pill everyday to keep my levels where they "should be" but I get b/w done every 6 months to check it! Sometimes mine is great and other's it's out of whack and they have to mess with my meds. I've taken meds since I've been very very young.
I know that taking a pill every day isn't something that anyone wants to do but FX crossed for that whatever they decide it's a quick fix! GL to you and I hope all goes well!!

Thanks. They thought before I had hashimoto's, and I have been on a small dose of synthroid for a couple years. My levels were normal throughout the pregnancy, but now all the sudden I've gone completely hyperthyroid, instead of hypo. I still have to go back for a follow-up appt, but I think at this point the options are take anti-thyroid meds (which may have issues w/ pregnancy, breastfeeding - I can't remember exactly what she said), radioactive iodine (wait up to a year for TTC), or thyroid surgery. Blah.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I was hoping for normal or hypo that way I could just change my dosage of Synthroid, but it seems like it won't be that easy this time. Have you ever had episodes of going hyper?
