FEELING DEFEATED, AM I REALLY OVERMEDICATED???
Started out on 125 mcg
synthroid
, taken @ 6am, following all the suggestions of the valuable people on this site. Four weeks after surgery I saw an Endo who immediately looked at my suppressed tsh (0.05) and dropped my fuse to 112 mcg.

Does Eltroxin linger in your body?
I have since tried 2 additional brands of T4 licenced in NZ;
Synthroid
and Mercury Pharma. Both of these have me the palpitations also, which I thought strange. I managed for 2 weeks on T3 only, but my supply ran very low as I was taking 60 much/day.

Weak shaky legs anyone
I have had them for several years now and thinking back they started around the time my
Synthroid
was reduced from. 125 down to 75. In two stages. Not all at once but within a month or so of each other. Don’t have a clue why. Some damn drs idea probably based on TSH numbers.

Opinions on med dose please
I’m to take 30mg to replace the 75 mg I am currently taking of
Synthroid
. Does this sound about right? My TSH IS 3.61(0.32-5.04) Thanks in advance.

Desiccated thyroid users only please
What I am interested in is anyone’s experience that was on a med like
Synthroid
( I forget what they are called. Levox something) and switched to a desiccated thyroid. Was it a good choice to switch or not. Thanks.

Help a Canadian sufferer please
I have been in
Synthroid
for years and feel like crap. Time to try a natural thyroid med. I have a couple of questions. What is a grain? I’ve never heard of that when referring to doses. Also, does anyone know what the equivalent is to 75mg of
Synthroid
?

Adrenal question
Another good thing is if this doesn’t work out, she can and will up my
Synthroid
dose which my GP refuses to do. My (daily) question is what do you out there think about me having my adrenals tested? It costs 130 British pounds so not cheap but if it helps it’s worth it.

Is it in my head
I’m still convinced it’s the
Synthroid
. I’m med intolerant to most meds so why not this one. I find got a prescription for Thyroid. I pick it up tomorrow. Won’t relax until it’s in my hand. I’m not a person who wants attention and this is a way to get it.

Synthroid

Timing of taking T3 before Blood Test
My previous Free T3 with just
Synthroid
was 2.5 (range 2.3-4.2). (I've already posted vitamins/iron, etc.) This is strictly about timing. I know NOT to take my Synthoid prior to labs.

Increase Synthroid?
Hi All, Just received a call from Endo to increase my
Synthroid
. I currently take 75mcg 5days a week and 88 mcg on weekends. The dr added 5 mcg T3 8 weeks ago. This is the best I have felt in a long long time.

Liothyronine/Cytomel dosage, timing, side effects
I have finally gotten my 5 mcg Cytomel (generic version) to add to my .75 mcg
Synthroid
in the hope of aiding insomnia, reset circadian rhythm, hair loss, mood swings, etc.
