[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1653047, member: 196960"] I've never heard of metformin influencing tsh levels. [USER=48386]@Indy51[/USER] might know if your tsh levels are of any concern other than the same your gp has made and supported you with 25mg of levothyroxine. I don't know any gp who would give you levothyroxine unless you needed it. Are you expecting a retest in 3mths time? I'll be very interested in your next tsh level after t4 thyroxine. It is a noted increase. Lets see what next blood test says? For now are you eating well? I found the low carb way of eating very useful for my tsh levels. I am surprised this has developed on a low carb diet thou. Mine improved not got worse. My 2000mg of metformin doesn't influence my tsh. I hope you get less and less symptoms as your body absorbs that extra t4 med. Remember to take on an empty stomach for better affect. Feel free to private message me if you cannot shake your worry. As you've seen I'm not always on-line as I have a young family and needy partner. You should start feeling much better on your med. Keep observant when your diet changes, if it does. Diet can influence some peoples tsh, but not all. [/QUOTE]
