I was explaining some symptoms (random heart palpitations, anxiety, sensitivity to caffeine, hypertension, etc) to a medical type and they suggested a look at my thyroid.
Results from last week:
Free T4 - 1.19 (0.59-2.19)
TSH - 3.28 (0.465-4.680)
T3 Total - 1.00 (0.97-1.69)
Of course the doc sees these and since nothing is flagged he thinks nothing more of it. However, I had pre-fin profiles done and the TSH was MUCH lower. I can’t find the actual report, but I’m sure it was below 2 (with the same range).
Questions: Shouldn’t an elevated TSH increase T3 and T4 as well? Are there known hormone imbalances that directly affect TSH levels?
Thanks for the help.
