so many supplements, so much money - any advice for lowering the cost?
hi everyone, I’ve just added up how much I’m spending on ndt and supplements and it’s an awful lot of money. I wondered if anyone had advice on cheaper options or those they think are unnecessary. I’ve got hashimotos and have also been diagnosed with ME/ CFS - these are a mixture of things recommended

First ever Medichecks Advanced Thyroid Test
Hello lovely folks, I've had my first ever Medichecks Advanced Thyroid Test and would really appreciate your views on next steps. The TSH result would indicate I need to increase levo, also I'm concerned at high CRP and antibodies! Plus I don't think I convert T4 to T3 very well. Your thoughts are very

Multi vitamins minus calcium and vitamin D
Saw Rheumy nurse yesterday. Still waiting to start Etanercept jab. But she said I should get multivitamins but minus vitamin D and Calcium as I'm already on calcichew D3 twice a day. Looked on line but cannot find any without these. Has anyone multi vitamins without calcium and vitamin D3?

A newbie question about vitamin D3
Before discovering compression fractures due to osteoporosis, I was taking various vitamin supplements. ( this is going to sound like I’m a hypochondriac, but I was trying to stay healthy). I had Garlic tablets, Glucosamine& Chondroitin, vit B, vit D3 and zinc. After my DEXA scan, my old GP put me on

D mannose
I think I saw a post which said it was okay to take D mannose with prednisone, adcal and the other things we take for PMR and GCA but I can’t find it. I have taken 5 courses of antibiotics since February for a persistent UTI and I think it might be worth seeing if this will help to get rid of it. Thanks

Latest results and changes to regime.
since my last post: Dropped my levo from 225 to 100. This by way of looking to reset the failures of the past 3 and half years. And at my last test my TSH was too low to register whilst my T4 was 22 so well above range. T3 not recorded. I have also reduced/monitored carb intake more so than previously

Lansoprazole and prednisolone
At a medication review last week, the pharmacist at my local GP surgery mentioned that I should perhaps be taking lansoprazole to protect my stomach so that has now been added to my increasing list of medications. As a bit of background, I was diagnosed with PMR in November 2022 and put on 15mg prednisolone

Does anyone know dosage for vitamin D3 and Coenzyme Q10??
At my appointment last week my consultant suggested I start taking vitamin D3 and Coenzyme Q10. However he didn't give a dosage and I didn't think to ask. He is on holiday in August so I'm stuck till he is back. Has anyone else been told to try this, and what amount? I know there's a big international
