View My Results

After viewing my results and my numbers relative to thyroid, especially those relative to thyroid antibodies, what do you make of them? Do I seem like I'm headed for Hashimoto's or something?

I have been given synthroid (50MCG) by my Primary Care Physician and Cytomel (25MCG) by my gyn.


I should also mention that years ago I was told that my pituitary is enlarged.

Hi there,

If you type in 'interpretation of blood test results', 'interpretation of thyroid tests result'  on your search engine, you may be able to find the answers you're looking for.  

Out of curiosity, why are you giving two types of thyroid meds by two different doctors?Plese make sure they are not giving to you for treating the same symptoms/disorder.  Too much can harm you too.

I believe there are specific testings for Hashimoto's.   I have pretty bad hypothyroidism
and here's one of the places I visit often to get update information and refresh my memory.

Hopt this info. will help you as much as it does me.

Hugs,
Kit
