New blood test results
Hi all, Please see my first results 6 weeks after introducing T3. I'm on 125mcg of levo and 10mcg of lio. I am very confused because I was certain that my current symptoms were due to being undermedicated! And how can my T4 be top of range again despite me reducing my levo and introducing T3. TSH 0.007

Brother Hypo & Gallstones
My brother has been on 75 mcg Accord T4 for a couple of weeks ( will re test in four weeks) When diagnosed he was very hypo and feeling awful TSH. 20 FT4. 8. (12-22) FT3. 4.3. (3-6) Is there a connection between hypo and gallstones? I took my brother to A&E three days ago and he is still in hospital

Help with my husband's results he is really struggling
I am so grateful to everyone on this forum as I have now been officially diagnosed with Hashimotos after going privately and opted for Armour NDT so next bloods will be first on meds and supplements. I wonder if I could get some wisdom on my husband's results. He has been ill for years now which was

has anyone felt not great on T3?
I’m on a T3 trial and haven’t felt like myself on it since I started, my TSH is too low for my Endo, who will want to reduce my meds next week. Has anyone gone down from 10mg to 5 mg and felt better? My endo reduced my T4 to go on the trail and I’ve gotten her to increase it back up a little but I

anyone experienced tremors post covid?
I had covid in 2022 and it brought on Graves’ disease and AF. This year I had gone into remission following a year on carminazole and everything heart related is normal. However I recently got bad covid and have since then had internal tremors. Is it likely it has reactivated my graves?

Confused
Just had a message from my GP surgery and as my TSH is 0.13 they want to lower my dose from 75 to 50. What do I do?

Private consultants who prescribe Erfa
Hi there! I have been feeling great on Erfa since February this year -- much better than I felt on a combination of Levothyroxine and Cytomel during the previous 25 years. Now my consultant no longer accepts Inuvi which was the only company that provided a nurse to come to my home to draw my blood. I'm

Blood results
Hello everyone I recently posted on here about having a scan on a swollen thyroid and was advised to request my thyroid blood results. Just spoken to the GP receptionist who said they tested TSH and it was 1.36 and T4 was 19.9 and they were all normal. I have no idea about this so wondered if anyone

unusual test results
why would my T3 be high in the range with T4 mid range? After a few hard months of GP changing my meds I’m now back up to 175mcg of Levo. Just had my results and they are nothing I’ve had before it’s always T4 above my T3 .Just wondering why and what might have caused this ? TSH. 0.11 0.55-4.78

Results of TSH Modification Experiment
I inquired last week about what effect I could produce on TSH within three days. I appreciate the expertise and wisdom I received. I had just seen an endocrinologist who wanted to cut back my NDT because my TSH was 0.027. You advised me to stick to my rights as a human being. The endocrinologist seemed

anyone got experience of private Drs or this reaction to dropping meds?
TO UPDATE, I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH AN ENDO FROM THE LIST AND AS MY ENDO ALREADY PRESCRIBES T3 ONLY THERAPY FOR ME (long story) HE MADE IT CLEAR THAT I WAS ALREADY GETTING THE BEST I PROBABLY COULD OUT OF AN NHS GP. SO NO NEED TO PAY PRIVATELY. Depressing to know no more nuanced help from anyone, but

Unsure about increasing T3
Hi Everyone, I’ve had my appointment with my thyroid specialist today and she wants me to increase my T3 from 15mcg a day to 25mcg a day and keep levo at 100mcg. However I’m really hesitant to do this as last time I increased my T3 (see my original post below) I got my T4 to 6 and felt awful. Plus I

Advice before I see the endo
hi oracles I could really do with some advice as to what I should do next. I’m going to see my Endo next Tuesday and my TSH is under the range, she’s going to want to reduce my meds and I don’t know what I feel anymore. Here’s my last results from private tests from 2 weeks ago … TSH - 0.154 Range

The ongoing battle to be well
Since I had Graves diagnosed years ago have struggled with levothyroxine alone..had RAI ...although my previous doctor gave me a private prescription for Thybon Henning Liothyronine. Which I have got - but due to house move changed doctors..present one said it would not help so I did not take it!!
