[QUOTE="Hendie, post: 215432, member: 34991"] I dont mind replying on here if thats oky with you and the forum mods, maybe down the line it could help someone using the search funtion with some information ect ect Yes all my thyroid labs were in range so my GP was like i dont care about your symptoms they must be in your head as your labs are fine.... how wrong he could of been! So i went down the private route to see Dr Peatfield (he has had his licence removed for treating people with T4/T3 and also HC, very long story but probably the best thyroid doctor in the Uk) I do so much reading also to learn about my illness and find out information! The reason im taking steroids was due to low adrenal resverves, which i did a 24 hour saliva test and i was under range for all of them, so started off on 25mg of HC the improvement was immense at first, but now im on a higher dose and its affecting my blood sugar. If your not converting T4 > T3 very well as you say your FT3 is bottom of the range then it could be converted into RT3 which blocks the cells from recieveing the T3. Thre best thing to do if you have not already is get your adrenals checked out (24 saliva cortisol test from genova) and ask your GP for a full Iron panel and make sure they are all within the acceptable range. Its crazy but thyroid/adrenals/diabates are all linked and it a can be a bit scary when they all go out of wack! Here is the link to the thyroid website [url=http://www.tpa-uk.org.uk/]http://www.tpa-uk.org.uk/[/url] and you can join the forum from the left hand side link "discussion forum" Hendie :) [/QUOTE]
