Confusing results

Can someone please help me make sense of my results until I see a Doc please? I initially had low T4 but normal TSH approx 1 month ago. I had symptoms of weight gain, hot sweats, low moods hence the first blood tests. It was suspected that I may have a pituitary issue rather than thyroid so asked to have more blood tests which I had last friday and now have 'normal' results (T4 is 11 and TSH is 3.3). My symptoms are much much worse but started taking B12 as recommended by friends to help with energy etc as my job is stressful and i drive a lot. I've not had a period in 2 months, my symptoms are just horrendous, fatigue, muscle ache, still the symptoms from before but worse, and more. I can't see a Doc for another 1.5 weeks so is there any advice on here as to what i might expect to hear as I'm confused? Thanks

    Hi linda, a friend of mine had this problem get them to do a proper thyriod test but also check for adrenal fatigue as she said that it can affect one hormone and not the other

    Kindest regards

      Hi Shannon

      Thank you for your advice. I will reach out to my docs again when I see them next week and make sure I ask them for the above.
