[QUOTE="Shawn M, post: 159565, member: 38903"] Thanks, responders to my post, and noting the peculiar high numbers on some of my thyroid tests. This came about when I first ordered just a TSH on my own from Discounted Labs, and when it came back high, I had incentive for my Doc to order a full panel. This shows the great value of both this forum and being able to order tests at a reasonable rate on our own when we need to check what other conventional MDs might not check. When I double-checked my numbers, it turns out the first test I reported was repeated in July with similar results: 4/15/2019 TSH 13.7 (Ref. 0.450-4.500 uIU/mL) Thyroid Peroxidase Ab 278 (Ref 0-34 IU/mL) Thyroglobulin Ab 446 (Ref. 0.0-0.9 IU/mL) Triiodothyronine (T3), Free 3.8 (Ref. 2.0-4.4 pg/mL) T4,Free(Direct) 1.21 (Ref. 0.82-1.77 ng/dL) 7/9/19 TSH 6.6 (Ref. 0.450-4.500 uIU/mL) Thyroid Peroxidase Ab 275 (Ref 0-34 IU/mL) Thyroglobulin Ab 361 (Ref. 0.0-0.9 IU/mL) Triiodothyronine (T3), Free 3.1 (Ref. 2.0-4.4 pg/mL) T4,Free(Direct) 1.05 (Ref. 0.82-1.77 ng/dL)[B] [/B] At my April visit when the numbers were first discussed, a Thyroid problem was dismissed when the the most important T3 and T4 numbers were in the reference range. We both agreed that the TSH value was off due to my HCG protocol. I checked Hashimoto's disease, and rest assured, I have none of the symptoms, only an earlier nagging lower back pain that cleared greatly during my program when I started HCG. My back felt even better when I went off Hydrochlorothiazide that was used out of caution by my MD to check BP in the high 130's and low 140's. I'm confident that the diuretic was flushing key nutirients out of my body and causing more problems for me than helping anything. I feel so much better without it, as I've posted elsewhere in the forums. I will call my high numbers to my Dr's attention at the next visit in a month or so and report back. [/QUOTE]
