A Thyroid Mess
After seeing her for several weeks she announced to me that in my “very healthy state,” I could stop taking the
levothroid
, which was very confusing to me, even as I stopped taking it, for a week.

STYMIED AGAIN: TOO MUCH SUGAR or TOO LITTLE?
The .88 mcg of
Levothroid

Cold Hands have become the deciding Factor?
The T4,
Levothroid
, was something that I first quit taking and ended up on 50mcg of Levo and 30 mcg T3, both happenings of which I have posted, (over several months) on this site. So, to sum up my past on this Hypo journey so far: I've 26 years on T4 only, with no problems.

fed up - levothyroid med not working
After hemi thyroidectomy 2 years ago I aquired hypothyroidism few months after. Synthetic t4 prescibed dose went 25 - 50 - 75 over period of time. Now 100 mg and no improvement - typical symptons = weight gain , depression and lethargy. Prepared to consider self medicating and looking for recommendations

feeling weak
Hello! I am presently taking 88mg of Levothyroid. I also take estrogen twice weakly. Does estrogen interfere with thyroid medication? Any one know.

TSH dropped from 5.4 to 0.1 in 6 weeks with no intervention except changing when levo taken. Does this make sense?
I am on the generic
Levothroid
, whose dosage supposedly is not as well-controlled as that of the USA gold standard, Synthroid. The endo plans to reduce my dose from 125 mcg to 112 mcg and recheck my TSH in six weeks. At least she won't make me wait three months!

Synthetic thyroid: Levothyroxine (eg: Synthroid; Levoxyl; Levothroid; Unithroid) OR natural: Armour Thyroid; Westhroid; Nature-throid?
I would appreciate any comments regarding experiencing treatment with either synthetic or natural thyroid. Also, I have read that the new formula for Armour isn't as effective as the old one?
