What could cause such dramatic weight gain
I have currently been on .1 mg
Synthroid
and 5 mcg Cytomel for three months, and while the blue lips, freezing cold and fatigue are gone, my legs are super swollen and hard, my "weight" is up 20 pounds in two months (unexplained by diet / lifestyle).

Cytomel side effects
My cytomel was recently increased to 5 mcg 1/2 tablet 3 times day and
Synthroid
75 changed to unithroid 50. It has been 10 days and I am still not feeling well. I just feel unwell and feel the ups and downs of cytomel. Many changes recently due to feeling unwell .

Question about using synthroid and ndt
I was on
synthroid
for about 6 years I am at 100 mg I am having symptoms again. I asked my doctor about ndt and he gave me a prescription. I have lowered my dose of
synthroid
slowly to 50 mg and plan on adding in the ndt but I don't know what dose to start at.

My latest Thyroid results after increase.
Test was done as normal 9am fasting no
Synthroid
for 24hrs. I’m wondering whether I should have stayed on 100mcg and rode it out because it seems like my body needs more. I’m nearly 15 stone. Any advice much appreciated.

Dr added more T3 and labs show no change, what happened?
She took me off my previous combo of 100 mcg
synthroid
and 5 mcg cytomel and started me on120 mcg of NP Thyroid back in October. It was a great help and my numbers looked better but she wanted my T3 up above the midrange, so in mid December she added 10 mcg of compounded T3.

Why are Endocrinologists So Useless - My Rant of Today!
I saw my endo today (had her for 1 year so far...) and she said my blood work is fine.....I am on 25
Synthroid
and 5 Cytomel - I asked for an increase. I am aware that the results should be in the top 1/3 of the range - not the very bottom of the bottom of the range........

Please enlighten me!!!
5 mg at 5 pm She had prescribed
Synthroid
175 daily, but I had adjusted it to 1 one day and 1/2 the next due to not feeling well and palpitations about 6 months ago I was only taking 5 mg twice a day of cytomel then. Thank you for any input!!!

Liver Disease and treating Hypothyroidism
I'm concerned just
Synthroid
is not converting to optimal T3. Currently just replaced my 100mcg of
Synthroid
with 300mg of Thyro-Gold. Early days. Drs here do not believe in T3 treatment. Any advice please!

question about increasing synthroid?
when increasing a dose of
synthroid
it speeds up your metabolism???? Does the increase also affect the way you metabolize other medications you take???

Thyroid dosage for elderly Mom
I just rec'd back a note thru her my chart regarding her thyroid dosage.. just a little back story.. had iodine ablation a few years ago, (was hyper).. that led to hypo, and was put on
synthroid
, i think it started at 50, and went as high as 100 as a dosage... at that time she was also on an anti arrhythmia

Reaching out to find the member who successfully did every other day hormone cycling
Nor can I easily import Thyroid S (have had one bottle stopped at border)
Synthroid
is crazy cheap here. But I 100% can not do T4 only due to how poorly I felt. I have one full new bottle of Thyroid S. And tons of
Synthroid
due to dose changes. And the ability to afford it going forward.

I have CH and honestly it would be nice to hear from others who have it
I take 200 mcg of
Synthroid
. I work full-time. I'm married. No children. Anyway, it would be nice to feel less alone. The treatment for the condition is that bad when compared with other conditions. It would just be nice to feel a little less alone in this way.

T3 (Cytomel): How would you fit it in these results? Or would you? And all the mistakes I have made on this journey
Synthroid
50s are the least additives a la dyes. This is the most important change for me.
