A member asked:
If my t3, (liothyronine)t4 is high along with high tsh, in this case, do i have hyperthyroid?

Unusual case: Hi. That is a VERY unusual lab picture, suggestive of either a TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma (you'd be hyperthyroid) or thyroid hormone resistance (thyroid hormone receptor defect...you wouldn't be hyperthyroid). To determine if you're hyperthyroid in this very rare case, you need to see an experienced endocrinologist. Good luck!

Hyperthyroidism: Hi, yes you have central Hyperthyroidism, the problem is coming from pituitary gland and you need a MRI of your brain for further evaluation.

NoWorry, It'sCurable: Yes, but not originating in the thyroid. You probably have a pituitary source (maybe a 'pituitary adenoma,' which is pretty rare). Did your doctor talk with you about it? The pituitary (at the base of your brain) sends signals to the thyroid (in your neck) to make thyroid hormone, but in this case it goes unchecked and causes the thyroid to ramp up. You'll need a specialist for this. Don't worry
