[QUOTE="BigBeard411, post: 255795, member: 43898"] I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's due to the presence of antibodies, as well as family history of it (mother and sister). Here are some results: TPO at 36 (ref 0-34) TgAB at 10.2 (ref 0-0.9) TSH in the past year varied from 2.5 - 3.0 (ref 0.45-4.5) T4 total ranged from 7.7-10.4 (ref 6.1-12.2) T3 total ranged from 100-119 (ref 87-178) Free T4 0.9 (ref 0.61-1.12) Free T3 3.2 (ref 2.5-3.9) Symptoms: T in the low 400's Brain fog Forgetfulness Streaks of good days and then bad days slightly elevated lympocytes (persistent over long term) weight gain with reduced caloric intake - use to be lean 190 pounds at 5'10 eating 3500 calories per day. Over the years simply packed on fat - 225 pounds now, eating 1800 calories per day. Doctor wants me to try 50mcg Levo and 10mcg Cytomel for a month and see how things go. What do you guys think? I'm concerned about getting hyperthyroid response/side effects. Can/should I immediately stop medication if this occurs? [/QUOTE]
