Help please
Hi again. Sorry to be a pain but is there an issue using private messaging to get help to choose an Endo who will prescribe T3? I'm not technically au fait using websites etc but believe I do need a dose of T3 as got my vit levels up to optimum but still low T3 so seeking help. Thank you.

Blood results
Hi all, Following on from the very useful help and advice I received on my previous posts, I have some blood results back and am hoping for some advice this time. My B12 came back in the normal range but low and my ferritin came back only just scraping into the normal range (results attached).

Armour Thyroid is now very expensive and not easy to obtain. I’m concerned about the long term importing and prescribing issues. Long scenario but now under

T3 only treatment experiences please
Hello, Looking to hear from anyone that has tried t3 only treatment? It’s been suggested I try it. I have PCOS which can cause thyroid hormone resistance which maybe explains why T4 at any dose causes awful issues and my t3 doesn’t budge at all. My t4 before starting levo has always been fine &

A graphic showing highs and lows when you take T3?
I'm sure I've seen them before, but sorry I can't find them now. I think there are some graphics showing the highs and lows/peaks and troughs of T3 when you're on T3 medication. Does anyone have one please?
