Hashimoto's/hypothyroid, what is going on with my levels?!?
Doctor added 25mcg T3 to my 175mcg
Synthroid
dose yesterday. I'm taking that split into two doses during the day. I only had it once midday yesterday and once right now. It makes me feel really warm about an hour or two after taking it, but still no sweat.

How long with Hoshimotos
I went to another doctor yesterday, and without so much as an exam of my neck, or a listen with a stethoscope, he told me he would not treat me with
synthroid
because my thyroid labs are normal. TPO over 600, but thyroid labs normal. Symptoms debilitating, quality of life really bad.

It is "levothyroxine" - not "Synthroid"
And it is liothyronine not Cytomel! [i]

Hello Everyone! Hoping Today has been a Good One!
I'm currently taking 3.5 mg of Warfin, 200mg Plaquinel, Cardio-Tex Vitamin, Liptor 20mg &
Synthroid
. I manage pretty good & have more good days than bad. I work full time & own a small business. I have never let this illness overcome me.

Newbie with questions!
She has started me on the lowest dose of
Synthroid
. I've been on it for the two weeks, and know it take awhile until I see results. However, in the meantime, I am feeling like (pardon the expression) like hell.

Thybon T3 compared to Armour
Armour is often quoted as 4 times the strength of T4 but I don't think it's that strong for me anyway (I'm guessing more in the range of 2.5-3.0 stronger) Also is the T4 in Armour equivalent to T4 in
Synthroid
/Exltroxin?

Trial of T4 now? Nature-Thyroid?
Was on
Synthroid
for a year at puberty when first had low thyroid hormone levels. Now 57, post-menopausal. Frightened of all the stories of hair falling out and the rest but need to try something. Huge thanks for your advice Maxi xx

Help newly diagnosed Hashimoto's is taking the life out of me :(
I have had my
Synthroid
medication adjusted now 6 times and I am currently on 1.75mcg and have blood work every 6 weeks. I received B-12 shots weekly for 3 months with little physical difference but those numbers regulated. I know I should not feel 93 at 53.

Abbots Synthroid
Hi Is Abbot's Synthyroid just another form of levothyroxine T4 sodium? I've seen some online and wondered if it is a suitable substitute and subject to controlled dosage regulations? Many thanks :)

Stay on same dose of levothyroxine?
In 2011 my tsh suddenly jumped to 3.11 (had previously been in the 0.75 - 1.50 range), at which time my doc switched me from 75mcg
synthroid
to 50mcg of levothyroxine.

Levothyroxine (Hypothyroidism)
Hi Guys, I am on 25 MCG of Levothyroxine Sodium Generic for
Synthroid
25 MCG. What it says on my prescription bottle. I have been on medication for about 6 years now. Initially, my TSH levels were around 6 and now its at a 1.470. I just started to feel really weird.

My TSH has gone high again, why?
Synthroid
100mg which I have been taking for a few years now. My doctor was finally starting to get my tsh within range around 0.50 and was going to see me again to re-evaluate in another 6 months. But I insisted 6 weeks. Glad I did.

unbelievable trip to the Rhumey
This was the guy who wanted to push big doses of prednisone on me, and plaquinil a year and a half ago...He asked if i was on any other meds (just
synthroid
and vit D), occasional diclofenac....and told me to go off the plaquinil...(no replacements were mentioned)...I go back in 6 months.

Aching legs
I was on
synthroid
, now on NDT and have aching legs on both. Has anyone gotten relief from this on T3 alone?
