Hi I got the report from the specalist back and just wanted to ask if I've got it right.
Free T4 was 44.9 and a suppressed TSH at 0.05
I've had a look about and just wanted to clarify that this result is high rather than just a bit high?
I feel really rubbish and have only just started taking the meds but I struggle myself with .... Am I just moaning ...... Or would it be valid to go on the sick..... I don't want to milk it but really do feel rubbish.

Yes your levels are high, T4 should be somewhere between 10 & 22 if memory serves me right. Mine was 65 when I started on the medication. The meds will take 4-6 weeks to even start making a difference and even then it's a long road to feeling normal. Don't be afraid to go off sick - I had two months off because I had quite a physical job with long hours and I just couldn't cope with it. I'm normally quite fit but could barely drag myself up the stairs. Take care of yourself and you will start getting better but don't best yourself up if it doesn't happen as quickly as you expect. You'll have good days and bad days in my experience. Good luck with it.
