It is exactly one month ago that I had my TT. I have been on synthroid 112 since then and have felt GREAT.
Yesterday I felt like I was in a fog the entire day and that is after 9 hours of sleep the night before. I was more tired then I have ever been in my entire life. Again today the same. I can't seem to wake up and I am at work. I called my doctors office and he is not in until Thursday. I am waiting to hear back from paging him but I had them fax over my blood test results from last week. It says my Free T4 is 2.0 which says it is high. What does that mean? It also says my Red Blood Cell Count is high. What does that mean?
Help! I feel a fog!
So, they put you on synthroid right after your TT? Does that mean you will not be having RAI? Well, I am not a expert, but the fact that you felt great for a while is probably because you still had some thyroid hormons left in you and that with the synth. probably made you feel good until your body realized, hey there is no thyroid anymore, and now the Synth. is not enough. Which is why your T4 was a little high. From what I understand when it is high that means your meds are too low. I'm sure your endo will bump you up, then it will slowwwwwly get better. It takes a good couple months for that to stabolize after having a adjustment. Why you have a high red blood count? I have no idea, I didn't know the endo even tested that. I know I still crash sometimes and my TT was way back in Dec. that is how long it takes to get all your levels figured out, and to get the correct med dose. It will get better....It takes a while. Will you be having RAI? Skylog
