Updated blood test results- is hypo the cause of my symptoms?
I'm taking supplements for
iron
, vit d, magnesium, folate, b vits. Also recently started taking Tyrosine, which actually seems to give me a real boost- not sure if that's a long term solution though. Thank you.

Clonidine - success with RLS anyone?
Evening team I have a query. As some of you may remember I was prescribed Buprenorphine two years ago by a neurologist for my restless limbs. I have a feeling I may have asked this question before, maybe not in one of my posts, (can't remember!) Does anyone out there take Clonidine for RLS? if

Ferrous Fumarate
I was found to be low in
iron
so the GP gave me ferrous fumarate to take for a month. I am on Levothyroxine (one day 75, next 100) I have just started taking escitalopram 10mg for the most awful anxiety and depression. But my anxiety is still really bad I’ve read ferrousfumarate can do this.

Could my problem be due to

iron
sulfate? How bad and what were your symptoms? How long did they last?

Switching from levothyroxine to NDT: your experience?
Ideal folate, B12, D,
iron
, CRP, blood glucose, etc. levels. Healthy diet and lifestyle. I've seen 4 private endos. Some say what I already know, 2 had suggested NDT.

Getting off Thyroxin
I tried Vegan for 3 years, I was never sicker and eventually hospitalised for an

Query re. folic acid dosage and related issues
Also not entirely clear about taking
iron
if spare folic acid becomes ferritin and is stored as
iron
. Or if this is correct. Sorry if this is a question you are tired of answering and I have missed the answers.

Advice needed please about liquid Levothyroxine side effects
Hello, I wrote a post about a month ago saying my adult son was unable to get liquid levothyroxine as it was out of stock. He was taking the brill Pharma brand and tolerated it really well. The chemist managed to source Teva liquid levothyroxine three weeks after we asked for a repeat prescription
