So the saga to feel well continues. GP upped my dose from 50 to 100, as my TSH had risen a bit and was 3.8, and I was feeling rubbish. I have been on that for 6 weeks ish now, and I had review bloods this week. The GP wants me to reduce the thyroxine as my TSH is now 0.02 and my T4 26.6. Bloods were taken at 11 a.m. ish.
Thing is I don't feel hyper, I felt better when i first increased the dose, but now I feel as tired as ever. I am foggy brained, mixing my words up, and generally feel rubbish. My liver enzymes were raised, two different types, one is always raised but is more raised than normal, and the other isn't usually raised but is now , so the GP is a bit worried and mentioned a liver biopsy (Horrors!). He wants more bloods in 8 weeks.
So should I drop to 75, or to 75/100? Why do I feel so awful? I felt a bit better initially on a higher dose but that quickly dissipated. I walked to town today with my dd, it isn't more than a mile, and I really struggled on the way back in particular. I am overweight, that has mostly gone on in the past 12m, so could that be affecting my liver? I certainly haven't lost any weight from increasing my dose. I am so fed up of never feeling well.
