TSH range

Posted by mochalatt3 @mochalatt3, Feb 16, 2020

I had a partial thyroidectomy over 25 years ago due to a mass.
My question is understanding the range to determine the optimum level.
My last results were 0.12ulU/ml. I had been losing weight & feeling very anxious & unable to sleep. Lowered dose - gained weight back - but unclear as that stated low after it on my report?

I read that when is that low they have to lower the medication, i do not use any medication for the thyroid but read that. Myself i feel better at 1.2 or around that range but now i am at 2.200 and feel horrible, i also have nodules and internal shakiness that are driving me crazy 24/7

@khali since you feel rotten on this amount have you seen your Dr. ? I would hope you are seeing an endocrinologist
