Nat, I quit smoking in October and quit taking my meds too. Thought I'd use my "disease" to my advantage. I restarted in Dec, or early January. I forget. My dose was/is 5 mgs per week.
That TSH was the level that my hyperT was first caught at, while my FT4 was higher(2.0).
That TT3 was ordered by my new primary. My endo's NP and I spoke on the phone and she agreed to order some hormone testing and FT4 and a TSI. Well the slip lacked the TSI and the FT4. ROLLEYES
I called her today, but missed the return call. She left a message saying that I can check off whatever I wanted on the lab slip. I don't even know where to write these things. unbelieveable.

SOOOOOO, do I tell the endo that i stoped the meds? That may explain some of the lag.
My real question is with a TSH THAT low, WHY have I not been able to lose a pound? What could possibly prevent weightloss? I don't get it??????????????????

I will report back when I get the full panel of tests. Including a TSI!!! Dammit!
