Change in Thyroid Function test results
Regarding my thyroid problems,
test
results are below. Can somebody explain the change in
T4
? Does that mean I have moved across to being hyperthyroid? I do not have hyperthyroid symptoms which is puzzling. Thank you.

Official trial for patients to stop their thyroxine for 6 weeks. Has anyone done this?
Have any members done this trial? This trial run by Newcastle Hospitals Trust ends in November 2024. It involves hypothyroid patients stopping their thyroxine for 6 weeks - to see how they felt when not taking thyroxine, and if they'd recommend a friend doing the same. ITT Improve Thyroid Treatment

Study
Apologies if I’m way behind and have missed a thread or two on this topic. Has anyone heard of the current study in Newcastle where patients stop their T4 for 6 weeks so doctors can see if they really need it?

Update to last post.
hi everyone I thought I would give you a update on my last post. Thank you to all that posted it really helped. I have now had an ultrasound on my neck lumps. I was told I had a very small thyroid and this happens when you have been on Levo for so long (30 years) I’ve never heard of this, has anyone

Has anyone felt worse when first adding T3?
Hello All, I've recently added 5mcg T3. 6 weeks later I felt awful (exhausted, brain fog) and blood
test
confirmed my
T4
had lowered so I increased my levo from 137.5 to 150 and kept the T3 at 5mcg.

Really struggling
I have not been able to take thyroxine when I was diagnosed in March 2021, ended up on low FODMAP and with a homeopath and naturopath but went from 9 st 5 to 7 stone 11 when doctors got concerned. Every time I tried to include a food back in diet I was worse. Started thyroxine liquid in September 2023

Chronic Hashimotos and long term side effects
Hi, I was diagnosed with Hashimotos 41 years ago after 6 years of feeling awful. A locum GP spotted a goitre in my throat as I was talking to him. I have been on 100 mcg of Thyroxine ever since. Now I am 66 . I have always suffered from hypoglycaemia-type symptoms after any type of exercise (even

Levo increase needed
How can doctors expect hypothyroid patients to feel good with a free t4 at only 50 percent? Doesn't even make sense.

accidental overdose of thyroxine
I’m on 100 mcg thyroxine and the kart prescription they only had 25 mcg so I was taking 4 tablets a day and then the recent prescription was 100 mcg. I’ve just realised today that I’ve been taking 4 100 mcg a day I think for 4 days from how many are gone. In a bit of a panic. I’ve rang 111 and they called

GP advice needed please!
Hello, I was (eventually) diagnosed with Hashimoto's 25 years ago (the misdiagnosis nearly killed me, I was literally a week away from a coma, the consultant said.) I've been on 150mcg on day one and 175mcg day two, for 25 years. Every time I move house, the gp decides to reduce it, then puts it back

Choices
Apologies for this seemingly random question but which do members think has the ‘least worst’ effect on T4 - pain or analgesics?

walnuts
hello, I’m post breast cancer treatment and on tamoxifen. There’s been a bit of thyroxine wobbling as I started that so being monitored. I’m eating more nuts, particularly / including walnuts (good for Bc) for extra protein as I’m exercising and lifting weights. how long would you wait before
