Starting T3
Hi all,I've decided to start T3. Can you please advise me how to introduce it/how much to reduce levo by? Also, I've read posts which have recommended that Thybon henning is a good option that I can get from roseway labs. December result TSH 0.012 (0.27-4.2) T3 4.8 (3.1- 6.8) T4 22.3 (12-22)

Head/neck pressure
Does anyone know what causes this? I had it a few years back, right at the start of my thyroid journey, and when I now know I was on levo but it was doing nothing. Since swapping to T3 only about 4/5 years ago I haven’t had it at all. Until now. And weirdly, it happens at the same time each night

Low T4 still.
My FT4 result continues to be quite low, I would welcome advice on my medication. SlowDragon, I think you have commented in the past. I would value your opinion now. I have been unsure what to do as there seem to be many warnings about atrial fibulation. FT4 14.6 pmol/L (9.0 - 23.0) FT3 5.4

Feeling cold despite overactive thyroid
I feel the cold all the time but GPs can't seem to find an issue. I'm currently in a heated home with three jumpers and two pairs of socks on, plus a blanket! GP did full blood tests, showing an overactive thyroid but all other tests within range (detailed below). I take 100mcg Levothyroxine a day and

Possible over treatment with Levothyroxine
Hi everyone, I’m new to the site. It was suggested that I make a post following a comment I made replying to another post as I may benefit from some guidance on my current treatment. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid 9 years ago. I have been treated with Levothyroxine throughout. Since 2020

interpreting results
Hi everyone, I’ve recently ordered a blood test to check my TSH, T4 and T3 levels. I’m also having my antibodies, ferritin, vit D, B12 and folate checked aswell. I’m fine interpreting the results of the vitamins and minerals, and I also understand that the higher the TSH the more underactive you are

Retest advice please
I am intending to arrange a follow up private blood test following a dose increase and change of Levo brand 6 weeks ago. I also changed from taking Levo in the morning to bedtime. The previous test I had was a Medicheck Advanced Thryoid finger prick test but I would welcome advice as to whether I should

DHEA medication /Hashi flare?
My DHEA was less than 10 (106 - 300) so my thyroid Dr gave me a prescription for DHEA. Has anyone had headaches after taking them? I’ve been four weeks in and too early to tell if they are working. Be grateful for any feedback. I also think I’m having a Hashimoto flare, my own fault if it is. Two days

I seem to be more ill since starting Levo
Before Levo I was hardly ever ill, rarely had a cold or flu but since starting Levo I’ve had the flu quite badly and I’ve had a constant cough since going on about 2 months. Now I’ve got a stinking cold over the holidays. Has anybody else had this or is this just a co-incidence?

T4 and T3
Hi all,I was wondering if you have had your thyroid removed do you still need Levo? I am having some problems since on levo and lio. I was self medicating with lio only and was doing OK, not great, but better than I am now. I have an appointment at Christies in two weeks and could do with some more

Thyroid Blood Test
Hi Everyone First time posting on here. I have seen many people recommend having thyroid blood tests early morning before taking Levothyroxine. Does this make a big difference to the results? I am due a thyroid blood test, my problem is I am housebound so my GP arranges for a district nurse to come
