Help please
I am on 1 mg of Levothyroxine and took my last tablet 24 hours before my blood test but my latest thyroid results were TSH 2 & FT4 23.7 The only time I feel well is when my TSH is lower than 1 and I explained to the nurse that for someone on Levothyroxine the TSH should be under 1 and I was experiencing

thyroid results
I have just received my recent thyroid results from a blood test 13 months ago it was 1.3 and now 2.6 have been taking 50 mg of Levothyroxine been on this dosage for the last 10 years. I asked my Gp if l needed to increase the dosage and he advised it’s still in the normal range.

levothyroxine
hi, I came on here for advice a while ago and discovered that I was taking too little levothyroxine and was advised to get gp to increase it, over a period of time in 3 monthly intervals, in increments of 25 I am now taking 75. The results of the blood test after adding the first 25 after 3 months showed

Has anyone tried Inclisiran in place of Statins
My doctor is keen to reduce my cholesterol as it is 7.3 and I can't/wont take statins. I also have problems with palpitations so can't even raise my levo. I am a bit worried I am developing a heart condition too. I am just waiting for a blood test and xray before I go back to the doc who has suggested

Best diet and supplementation guide for hypothyroidism?
Is there a really simple list of vitamins (and best times of day to take them) and a list of foods to avoid when starting out of levothyroxine? I have such brain fog that I'm struggling to compile a plan for myself. I really need to lose the weight I've recently piled on too. Also I have ADHD so I struggle

I think its helpful to see those that are happy on medication and their journey. I have been taking 75mcg of levo and 20mcg of lio daily for about

Teva brand
Hi, I've been started on 25mg levo for 2 weeks then up to 50mg for a few months followed by a blood test (Teva because I'm lactose intolerant). I can see loads of reports of people struggling with this brand. How do you get on with Teva? Is there a lactose free alternative? I'm wondering if the quantity
