Elaine My cousin has very similar labs as me. Can you please help her with levothyroxine dosing? FT4 is still too low for her as she is still getting hypo symptoms. She is currently on 37.5mcg of levothyoxine. How much increase should bring her FT4 to slightly under top of the range? She, like me, started off hyper and while on ATD, felt the best when FT4 is around 20-21. Also when increasing levo, is it expected to get symptoms? March TSH 0.05 (range 0.35-5.00) FT3 4.9 (range 2.6-5.7) FT4 17 (range 12-22) Levothyroxine 37.5mcg February TSH 0.03 (range 0.35-5.00) FT3 5.6 (range 2.6-5.7) FT4 15 (range 12-22) Erfa Thyroid 30mg/day January TSH 0.15 (range 0.35-5.00) FT3 4.3 (range 2.6-5.7) FT4 13 (range 12-22) Stopped Tapazole for 3 months Thanks!
