Advice needed on switching from T3/T4 combo to T3 only
I want to try T3 only after 4 months on T3/T4 combo. I had initial difficulties with T3 when I’d tried to add it a few times over the past years then found out here, all hail T.U.K. !, and with the help of a friend I met on this forum, that I wasn’t doing it right. (Was started with too much, as advised

What dose of daily iodine is recommended in hypothyroid?
What dose of daily iodine is recommended in hypothyroid? I have an iodine supplement that lists 150 mcg (micrograms) of iodine as 100% of the Daily Value but I have seen that some websites recommend much larger daily doses of iodine for hypothyroid patients. Thanks very much

Help with vitamins and iron status
I wrote a rather rambling post last week, probably confused everyone. Hypo after RAI, changed from 125to 100/125 levo 10 weeks ago, Endo not happy with T4 (23). Now I'm not happy. TSH 2.75, T3 4.07, T4 20.8 All bloods taken first thing in the morning fasting. I've had a problem with high ferritin

The Effects of Long-Term High Water Iodine Levels in the External Environment on the Carotid Artery
Iodine continues to be a controversial issue with some suggesting supplementation is always inappropriate while others proclaim massive doses. For a change, this paper looks at a range of iodine intakes, and not as a supplement but in the water supply. [i]Open Access Published: 31 August 2021

RAI Decision to Make
I had a TT in February due to a 1.0 cm papillary cancer nodule. The cancer did not spread. I had my 6-month ultrasound and that came back good. It has been recommended for me to have the RAI treatment because there was some angioinvasion on the pathology report. I am on the fence about it. I am worried

I need advise because I’m really struggling with life right now.
I had RAI treatment for hyperthyroidism ( graves) in April of this year. Then after 2 months I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism with a tsh of 60. I was put on 50mg of Levo for 2 weeks, then I ended up In ambulatory care because I felt so anxious, with bad headache, thirsty, and cold sweats. They moved

What are your thoughts on this multi supplement
Are there any combinations within this product that shouldn’t be taken together? There’s iodine in it, which some schools of thought say that Hashimoto’s sufferers should avoid … Thanks

Feeling dehydrated even with drinking 2-3 liters per day
Has anyone been troubled with dehydration with CLL? My CLL was diagnosed in July as result of hospital admission for acute sigmoidal diverticulitis (never had this before). I am on W&W, my ALC was 20 from what I remember during that acute illness. RBC's, platelets and Hgb all preserved. Since that

Thyroid symptoms and iodine
I have all the symptoms of an underactive thyroid except I am sensitive to hot and cold. My tsh and t4 are normal, but t3 4.0. (Lab scale started at 3.9 ). In June I was much better and had had 2 iodine injections for scans. Does an iodine deficiency cause the same symptoms thanks

Guys. I have hypothyroidism on a cellular level - meaning it is not primary, not secondary, but underactive/unresponsive within the cells. TSH normal, low- end of range t4 and t3. Both levothyroxine and Armour have increased my symptoms and made me very ill as they are not making it into the cells. Endocrinologists

Testing Pituitary Function - Any Advice Please?
I had an overactive thyroid gland treated with Radioactive Iodine in February 1990. I gained two and half stone during the three years which followed. My doctor flatly refused the idea that my thyroid had become underactive, while my T4 slowly plummeted to the bottom of the range, because my TSH did

Graves disease.
Hello, I wondered if anyone can give me some advice? 15 years ago, I was diagnosed with Graves disease. The medication (propylthiouracil) helped, but the Graves came back after 2 years. I took this again for a longer period and eventually was taken off of it. Five years ago, I became unwell and, after

Symptoms but no diagnosis. Frustrating. I've tried everything and would appreciate any kind of advice. Please note this is a very long post.
I started to feel discomfort on the right side below my ribs about a year and a half ago. It wasn't pain as such but more of a discomfort that one should not feel daily. I was drinking heavily at the time; beer, whiskey, tequila. This discomfort has now become chronic that would last for a few hours

Anyone else feeling sick on multi vitamins???? 🥺🤢
I’m convinced my multi vitamin is making me have all day sickness 🙄 anyone else the same? I’m currently on Pregnacare but think the iodine is not agreeing with me . I’ve changed when I take it and always with food but the all day sick is just not going. I’m sick sometimes shortly after I’ve swallowed

Can't seem to get anywhere
I may or may not be able to get any answers here. I might not even be in the right place. I'm a 53 year old male and back in 2015 my thyroid swelled up quite a bit. I was referred to my local hospital endocrinology. Where a large amount off brown liquid was drained. At the same time I developed alopecia
