What happens when FT3 is 2.72 and FT4 is 1.05 and TSH is 7.18?
T4 is storage hormone and is inactive. It is converted to T3, which is the active form of the hormone that your cells use. The tests FT3 and FT4 tell how much of the hormone is in your blood, unbound to other proteins and hormones so they can be converted or utilized by the body. TSH is the hormone from your pituitary gland near your brain that tells your thyroid to produce more hormone. A low FT4 and FT3 will result in an elevated TSH, indicating hypothyroidism - your thyroid isn't producing enough thyroid hormone. A high FT4 and FT3 will result in a decreased TSH, indicating hyperthyroidism - your thyroid is producing too much thyroid hormone. Normal levels of FT3 and FT4 may indicate several issues, including a problem with the pituitary gland itself; or a change in thyroid supplementation and testing that has occurred before TSH levels have had an opportunity to reflect those changes. There are other causes of hormonal abnormalities, but an endocrinologist will know the correct tests to use to determine a diagnosis and potential treatment for abnormalities that are found.

Normal levels of FT3 and FT4 may indicate several issues, including a problem with the pituitary gland itself; or a change in thyroid supplementation and testing that has occurred before TSH levels have had an opportunity to reflect those changes. TT3 and TT4 are no longer considered accurate testing for determination of a diagnosis or treatment for thyroid conditions, as it measures the available hormone as well as the bound/inactive hormone. There are other causes of thyroid and pituitary hormonal abnormalities, but an endocrinologist will know the correct tests to use to determine a diagnosis and potential treatment for abnormalities that are found.
What amount of thyroxine tablets should you take daily?
This is entirely dependent on what your FT4 and FT3 levels are. You need to get a prescription for blood tests and have them sent to an endocrinologist who will then be able to accurately prescribe the amount of thyroxine you should take.
What to do when TSH is high and T3 and T4 are normal?
Endocrinologists who specialize in thryoid patients know not to treat patients based only on lab values. A high TSH and normal TT3 and TT4 may indicate that there are not enough free hormones available. A FreeT3 and FreeT4 will better tell the story because inactive hormone will not be included in the results. High TSH and normal FT3 and FT4 may indicate either that your 'normal' falls outside the normal range, or that your pituitary is trying to turn your thyroid on and it is not consistently or reliably responding. It may be rollercoastering. TSH is a test that gives the average of thyroid production over several weeks. FT3 and FT4 or TT3 and TT4 tells you how much hormone is there today. If FT3 and FT4 are low one week, and high the next, the TSH results will reflect the middle/average of the two. These patients usually (tho not always) have autoimmune Hashimoto's Thyroiditis or are not eating properly. Treatment: Some doctors choose Block and Replace therapy for these conditions. Others try to raise FT3 and FT4 levels until the patient is comfortable and TSH values seem more normal.

What is T4 free blood test?
Thyroxine free index. "elevated TsH and low fT4 or fTi indicates primary hypothyroidism due to disease in the thyroid gland. a low TsH and low fT4 or fTi indicates hypothyroidism due to a problem involving the pituitary gland. a low TsH with anelevated fT4 or fTi is found in individuals who have hyperthyroidism."

Can you drink coffee before a thyroid test?
If you are only being tested for thyroid function, and your doctor has not asked you to do otherwise, you do not need to fast. If you are undergoing a physical exam for your hyperthyroidism, it is allowed, although unwise to indulge in coffee before the exam, as caffeine can make your hyperthyroid symptoms seem much worse. This would potentially lead the physician to get an unclear impression of the impact of the dysfunction to your system. With an altered impression, it is possible you could end up over-treated for your condition.

Is fasting require for a FT4 blood test?
Fasting is typically not required for a Free T4 (FT4) blood test, as it measures the level of unbound thyroid hormone in the blood. However, it's always best to follow the specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider or laboratory.
