Chemo for Pelvic Lymph Nodes
The
ADT
has eliminated the spine mets, but the lymph nodes continue to grow. Will Chemo kill the lymph node mets or is it more effective for bone mets?

T3 side effects
hi, Please can I have some advice. I’ve been taking 10 mcg T3 for 7 months together with 75 mcg T4. I haven’t felt particularly any better on T3 except for an improvement in tiredness and mood. I’ve felt hyped up and breathless on exertion so I asked for an ECG. I’m 68 and they found that I have a

genetic tests for conversion issues etc
hi lovely forum users I’ve finally got an endo appointment via my doctor no date yet. I doubt they’ll smile on my taking ERFA but I’ve no intention of going back to Levo only as it worked less and less for me over the years. I’ve wondered if I have a T4 to T3 conversion issue and have found a blue horizon

Radiation treatments for oligometastatic lesions
This makes me worry about taking the route of the wait and see until psa rises , do a psma, find the Mets and treat with radiation INSTEAD of just starting systemic therapy (

).

Advice please - Is this potential dose increase a bad idea?
Just wanted to ask for opinions and wisdom regarding my NDT dose. Never had thyroid treatment before, and just got prescribed 50mg NDT as a trial by my doctor. Being super cautious, I decided to start at 1/4 of that dose (12.5mg) per day, then build up by another 1/4 each week until I hit the prescribed

NDT UK
Can anyone advise where I can get NDT in UK? I was taking Thiroid by Nature Pharma which worked well for me, but they stopped making it a few years back. I got as batch of Thyroid-S (4 x 500) which does not agree with me as well but still way better than Levo. My supplies are running low and I am struggling

What else to increase T3? Tried everything ...
Hello beautiful people, My latest TSH is 0.66 and had to lower thyroxine just a bit (from 100/88 to just 88) as was getting some hyper symptoms and felt way better with a lower dose, finally have energy and drive again! My T4 is healthy range, 60% through. However, my T3 dropped to just 10% of the range

Cortisol tests
Hi, I just had my cortisol retested to see if there had been any improvement from February 2023. Since August 2023, I have been slowly titrating NDT Armour and taking vitamins, minerals and amino acids prescribed by a private thyroid Dr. My iron & B12 are good, working on increasing vit D. I'm still

Shytomel duo
Hi guys has anyone heard of or used Shytomel NDT? I'm currently on Armour buy it's very expensive and looking fir an alternative. I have previously tried Thyroid S but I'd get bad palpitations on it when I'd need to increase the dose. The best that ever worked was TR Man but unfortunately they stopped

Erfa to Liothyronine Thybon Henning Dose Conversion
Hello, I used to take ERFA and levothyroxine but as my T3 was slightly high, my new Dr has put me on Thybon Henning so it will be a bit easier to manage T3 and T4 dosing (it's difficult to cut down on NDT as if I lower it I'm also lowering my total T4 dose, and I run low in T4). I have a feeling he

The price has gone up and I was a bit worried because I wasn't sure if the supplier would still be available. There used to be so many suppliers and with more competitive prices over there. Now, this
