    Hi, I am wondering about my lab results. I started Levothyroxine in October. My T4 is staying low, my TSH decreased, and my T3 is going up.

  10. Lab Results Discussion Boards
    Wow, my case just got more complicated, here's my story: I'm 6 months postpartum. I had hypo symptoms so I asked OB for a test a few weeks ago. Test said TSH was .06 at my OB, and the T3 and T4 were on the upper end of normal-so I was hyper then, but I KNOW I was hypo a month before. So I...
