Seeking reassurance
I’m really struggling and hoping for some reassurance from anyone (my background and test results are in my Bio and first post). I’ve been on increased dose of 75mcg levothyroxine for two weeks. Symptoms improved the first two days but since then I’ve been feeling awful. In addition to my usual symptoms

Tiromel Potency
For those using Tiromel T3 have you ever experienced differences in batch potency. My latest batch seems much stronger than my previous one. I'm feeling over replaced on it even though I've not changed dosage. On that note should I reduce the T3 or reduce my Levo?

Test Results - How bad is it?
Hi all, I went to the GP as I keep getting sharp pains in my right abdomen (upper quadrant) and multiple bruises appearing beneath my ribcage area, mostly on the right side but sometimes left. The doctor ordered a whole bunch of tests, including thyroid. My results came back abnormal for thyroid. Everything

Latest results on armour
I’ve just been sent some results by my private doc. She asked that I swap from 50 Levo/6 t3 at the beginning of June to 2 grains of armour. After 3 weeks I hit a wall and have reduced it to 1 grain and now 1/2 grain fro the past week as I just felt so awful on it. Any thoughts welcome. TSH: 0.025 (

Latest TFT Results
Good morning. Looking for some feedback/advice re latest results please. Currently taking 250mcg levothyroxine. I have hashimotos. Have also been taking B vits, Vit D, Iron, Selenium & Zinc daily. I have recently managed to lose a stone deliberately as a result of portion control and eliminating sugar

Deficiency affecting labs
Hello everyone!I wanted to ask if someone knew if any vitamin or mineral deficiency can cause low TSH or the thyroid labs in general. For context: i had for a long time hypo symptoms even though i am on levo. My tsh was on the low side (around 0.5) so no doctor increased my meds. By chance i found

Eyebrows have started growing again : )
haven't posted in ages because of health issues but do read posts. Seeing private endo at the moment and taking it very slowly with him and so far so good & gradually increasing levo. GP did a raft of tests recently and it showed low ferritin and low folate. She didn't consider worth doing anything

Should I increase my dose of Levo?
My potted history is in my profile. My current predicament is that after 7 months of feeling awful, on 5th July I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism (I could have told them earlier myself!), given Levothyroxine by the endocrinologist (50 micrograms per day), who said would test me again in two months.

I’ve been seeing a private doctor who prescribed t3, she is German and a homeopath as well so she has a different approach, she is not an endocrinologist. my latest test results are based on 50mcg levothyroxine and 15mcg liothyronine taken in one dose. she thinks I need to test reverse t3 as although

Blood test with GP want to be armed with information
Hi I am due to have a blood test with my GP surgery for my thyroid. This is the annual one. I use a combination of levo and also use NDT which I source myself. My GP isn’t aware of my NDT nor do I have any intention of telling them. Every year since my old GP retired it is a constant battle to

It it normal for levels to change so much in two weeks? (TTC after loss)
TW: miscarriage Unfortunately had a miscarriage on 1st July. Since then I had a thyroid test at the GP and carried out my own at home finger prick test because I wanted to check out my antibodies and vitamin levels before TTC again. 13 July: TSH 1.35 (0.35-5.5) T4: 17.5 (10.5-21) Attached latest

which levothyroxine brands are made in 75 mcg?
just anticipating that if I accept the GP’s wish to try dropping down from 100 to 75 mcg levo. that I then don’t end up with an unsuitable brand …Teva is a no-no possibly due to acacia rather than mannitol…I suspect some lovely admin/ member has a list of such things… thank you.

Hi all, I am currently in Spain where liothyronine is not offered at all. I have now had my third set of bloods since being on levothyroxine and my T3 has not increased from the very lowest normal lab result. I was wondering if anyone within Europe has got hold of it, it appears to only be available

thyroid test results
I wrote on here before about my results and you really helped. I’ve been trying to raise my ft4 and lower my tsh. I had been on 25mg levothyroxine and increased in increments of 25. After the first increase to 50 my tsh went down and ft4 up, increased to 75, first test after that ft4 rose slightly but
