high THS normal T4/T3

[stckdg]

I have been on fentanyl for 13 years.  Chronic pain, bent Harrington rod in my back.  Ouch! Approved for surgery but my THS level is too high 44 T4/T3 within normal limits.  Can Fentanyl or pain meds (I was on two patches - 100 and a 25).  I started to work out, dropped all the weight gained from the Fentanyl and the other 8 meds I needed to take due to the side effects of the Fentanyl, and now am on two patches (50 and 12) and on a razors edge as pain goes.  Recently had heaps of dental work done. Crowns replaced, amalamates removed etc and my THS went through the roof.  The hospital over-seer will not approve my back surgery ( all cardio bloods etc are EXCELLENT) and everyone is amazed I am 65 years old.  What is going on?  I refuse to  go on the synthetic drugs, which I did for three days - lips turned blue, neck swelling, larnax swelling, loss of voice hair loss ... to name a few side effects in three day on a 75mg dose.  I live in a small town and that is the only option I have been given.  A horse fell over on me and bent the rods in my back, I live in pain, I need this surgery and HATE drugs.  Help me please.  What alternatives do I have to get this THS down so I can have my surgery.  It was high once before when I had dental work done right before the tests.  I am so beyond this and no one is listening to me on the correlation between the pain meds, stress and extensive x rays ..

Assuming that you meant TSH.  Please post actual test results and reference ranges shown on the lab report for the TSH, and T4/T3.
