Too heavy, feeling depressed.
Hi & happy, healthy new year 🎉 Prev spoke with Slow Dragon 💝 was so grateful for the good advice back then. My Levothyroxine dose increased to 200 i had hoped it would help me loose some weight. No such luck and after recent blood test, I was told to reduce dose to 175. I feel fine, tbh no different

Advice re private GP
Hi, I'm new here. Frustrated because I'm still having hypothyroid symptoms nearly a year on from diagnosis. My TSH is 5.2 ( 0.4 - 5.4) GP refuses increase in Levothyroxin. Currently on 25/50 mcg, alternate days since May. I've decided to find a private GP (or thyroid specialist) if refused again after

Levothyroxine getting less effective?
Hi all I've written before and found it very useful so hoping you can help again. I have just switched doctors surgeries and as such lost access to my online account with all my detailed results, so hope this limited information is enough to go on. At the start of last year I was overmedicated at 50mcg

Reliable Genuine Source T3 Please
I'm gearing up for my obligatory annual NHS thyroid blood test in early December,however I did a MMH test in early October. My results then were TSH 0.01 FT4 21.4 (12-22) FT3 5.2 (3.1-6.8) This was on 200mcgs of Levo, I'm prescribed 150mcgs but had plenty spare to play around with. I have never

TSH STILL 00.1 AFTER HALVING T3 DOSE TO CONCIEVE AND REPRODUCTIVE ENDOCRINOLOGIST RECOMMENDATIONS IN LONDON OR MANCHESTER PLEASE
Hi all HMY! I have been on T3 for about 8 years very successfully and VERY happy on 20mg daily T3 and 150mcg thyroxine. I felt great. Whichever endo I see private or nhs has told me despite feeling well that I am over medicated as my TSH is 0.01 and I need to reduce my T3. I have always refused

I wonder if my thyroid was going wrong for decades before I became hyperthyroid?
I went hyperthyroid about 19 years ago. My explanation for it has been that it came soon after the birth of my beautiful son (amazing but stressful of course) and then the sudden death of my father a year or so later. I was just rambling on an ADHD forum (DX in 2022 now titrating) and the question occurred

Are thyroid problems hereditary?
I had a subtotal thyroidectomy in 1985 at the age of 35 to remove a multinodular goitre. The specialist thought that my previously functioningThyroid would work properly afterwards. Four months later I was totally exhausted to the point where even making a cup of tea required huge effort and I was unable

"Real Thyroid"
Regard all. I've been treating hypothyroid for many years with Thyroid S (Thailand). I am seeing a new NDT called "Real Thyroid" from Vietnam. I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with this. I'm not finding any reviews when I search for them. Love to hear from anyone who uses this or has

Endocronologist experience
Hi there, I recently had a top end and very experienced endocrinologist tell me that the 1.6mcg of levo per KG in weight was an old fashioned and outdated theory. Is this the case? I have just upped to 100mcg and was just wondering if I’m on the right dose. He seems to think that’s ok for me.

Low T4 still.
My FT4 result continues to be quite low, I would welcome advice on my medication. SlowDragon, I think you have commented in the past. I would value your opinion now. I have been unsure what to do as there seem to be many warnings about atrial fibulation. FT4 14.6 pmol/L (9.0 - 23.0) FT3 5.4

Feeling cold despite overactive thyroid
I feel the cold all the time but GPs can't seem to find an issue. I'm currently in a heated home with three jumpers and two pairs of socks on, plus a blanket! GP did full blood tests, showing an overactive thyroid but all other tests within range (detailed below). I take 100mcg Levothyroxine a day and

Possible over treatment with Levothyroxine
Hi everyone, I’m new to the site. It was suggested that I make a post following a comment I made replying to another post as I may benefit from some guidance on my current treatment. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid 9 years ago. I have been treated with Levothyroxine throughout. Since 2020
