Why antiTPO raised after treatment of Hassimoto Hypothereoidism.


Question:
I am 41 female from Greece.
On March 20th 2006 I had TSH 3rd gen 7.01, T3 1,11, T4 6,22 antiTPO 227 and anti TG 26
After a 3 months treatment with T4 pills of 0,1mg, on July 7th 2006 I had TSH 3rd gen 0,21, FT3 3,19 FT4 1,62, AntiTPO 292 and AntiTG 21. Why the antiTPO raised? What kind of treatment should I take?

Answers:
Hi I found this for you.
Anti-TPO is a method of testing if you have Hashimoto's.

Evaluation of the presence of thyroid autoantibodies (antimicrosomal or anti-TPO antibodies) and antithyroglobulin (anti-Tg) may be helpful in determining the etiology of hypothyroidism or in predicting future hypothyroidism. Anti-TPO antibody testing may also help to diagnose Hashimoto thyroiditis as an etiology of primary failure.

In the US, for Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, I was prescribed Snythroid. It is synthetic thyroid hormone. That was more than 25 years ago and I've done great. I'm not aware that we measure "antitpo" in the US. Synthorid, in the US, is cheap and works really, really well.

You can check out this website. It is US based for doctors. http://www.fpnotebook.com/END228.htm

Don't be scared. Just make sure that your doctor really determines the cause of your hypothroidism and that when you have your yearly 'girl' checkup that your doctor palpates (feels) your neck and thyroid for changes.

Good Luck.


I was diagnosed with hypothyroid,still really can't say.my test are crazy also.either to slow or to fast. Try glyconutrients. Read the information about this technology on my page.
