Thanks for all of the excellent information!  |
About 15-16 yrs. ago I was Hyperthroid (Graves Disease). I took a med for about two years (Tapazole). Went into remission for a short time; then became Hypothroid.
I see my Endocrinologist every 4 - 6 months for retesting. I have been on Synthroid for the past 10 or more years. My doctor has been testing my TSH only since he feels the T3-4 is not as reliable as the TSH.
The normal on the TSH show 0.450 - 4.500 . According to these numbers, you are a little on the high side. My last test went up a bit and was 4.0l in December 2014. It has gone up a bit since My previous test in August, 2014 which was 3.1. I see my Endo in June with lab work a week prior.
Glad you will soon be seeing an Endocrinologist soon.
