Why Do You Still Have Thyroid Symptoms?
Karen Fitzpatrick-Dame, ChhC, AADP
You aren't getting the right lab tests. A complete thyroid panel is needed to tell you how your physiology is working. TSH is not enough to determine the health of your thyroid. Labs you need: TSH, Free T3, Free T3, Reverse T3.
Your first step is a Comprehensive Thyroid Panel test available without a prescription.
You are on medication that does not work for your physiology. It doesn't matter the dose of medication if your body isn't able to use the medication. I'm talking about T4 only meds. If this is you, you will never get well because your body can't activate it. Two things happen when people are placed on a T4 only medication. They never realize symptom resolution and they get worse over time.
