T4 levels while suppressed

I’m 9 months past TT with right lateral neck dissection, and almost 8 months past RAI (150 mCi with rTSH).

The last 5 months we’ve been gradually increasing my Levo dosage. Since I’m high risk, the goal is to get my TSH suppressed to <0.1. I feel like it’s taking a lot of time to get there.

I’m currently on 150 mg of Levo, and TSH has finally dropped significantly and currently sits at 1.3 mIU/L. fT4 has raised to 26.9 pmol/L (= 2.09 ng/dL). I’m starting to feel some minor symptoms like dizziness, fasciculations and light tremors and some wieght loss. It’s all quite manageble, but I’m wondering how much I can expect this to raise further and when/if the symptoms will increase.

I can’t seem to find any literature as to what’s an expected T4 level to get TSH suppressed. Only that T4 will need to sit at a ‘high normal’ range or slightly above.

So my question to you all: What are your T4 levels while being TSH suppessed? And do you have any symptoms?
Fwiw: I’m M37 and 77kg (170 lbs).

CA Evo 75 switches on randomly

Hi all,

We’ve recently noticed that our Evo 75 randomly wakes up from standby. I can hear the relays clicking and see the screen light up.
Sometimes it continues playing Spotify connect from the point when it was switched off, sometimes it switches off again after a little time when there is no source input.

The ‘auto-wake’ function is on, and the Evo is connected to a LAN cable, but no HDMI.

It’s not a one-time event, we have noticed it happening a dosen times over the last month(s?). We only notice it during the night, since we’re usually either not at home during the day or the Evo is on.

It’s quite annoying since it wakes up my wife and I. I’ve resolved to unplugging it before going to bed, but that’s not ideal…
