How do you come down from the pred high?
I wrote what follows as a response to someone else mentioning the pred high but then realised it should have been a new post. So here it is again, edited and with a heading. I seem to feel hyperactive all the time, at the moment, especially if I do exercises. Last night I went out to the local exercise

Armour help, please
I’ve been trialing Armour thyroid for 4 weeks (1/2 grain twice daily) - having changed from 125mg Levothyroxine / 5mg Liothyronine. These are my latest results. TSH 5.25 (0.35 - 4.94) T3 3.4 (2.4 - 6) T4 - 8 (9 - 19.1) My results in April were: TSH 0.19 (0.35 - 4.94) T3 4.2 (2.4 - 6) T4 12.4

Borderline TSH during cancer treatment
Hi folks! Haven't been on here for some time but in the interim I have been treated for Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia. Had chemo in September last year which was successful (minus a few hiccups like fungal pneumonia that put me in ICU!) and currently on home oral chemo, antifungals and antibiotics daily

I am wondering whether to try it and take a tiny bit tonight before bed to keep me going over night as I have under active symptoms and then take the usually dose in the morning. i have high t4 so when I increase it in the morning altogether I get awful anxiety

IBS Flare up
Good afternoon to everyone. I've had IBS-D for many years and I've been able to cope and manage it so far. But since October 2023, I had a major flare up, it was getting to the point where I was struggling to work and general daily activities. Was constantly on the toliet. It was that bad that I went

Levothyroxine linked to high blood sugar readings.
I got up this morning and planned to check my blood sugar but was wondering why the readings lately have been running a little high and just thought i would look up if my levothyroxine might have anything to do with it. I am glad i found your site, i learned a lot from here. I am on a low dose, 25mg

Struggling introducing T3
Hi all, I knew I’d be back before too long as I’m totally useless when it comes to introducing T3! Bit annoying as I obviously need it. Here are my results when I was on 87.5mcg Levo daily with no T3. TSH 0.007 (0.27-4.2) Free T3 4.1 (3.1-6.8) Free thyroxine 23.1 (12-22) Over the last couple

Latest Private Test
Hi there, I'm still waiting on a telephone app with my GP, but my new private antibody test results have come back. I get these done myself as we know GP's and the Endo situation is pretty poor for most of us, as our symptoms often get dismissed. The last endo appt said I may be at risk of developing

Low HCG levels
Hi all, just looking for some hope I guess. I had 5day FET. Was testing positive lightly from day 6. Has blood test 12 days after it was 72 then 4 days later was 205. Now I'm going to have my 3rd test today. Dr said it doesn't sound very promising 😔 my urine tests have progressively got darker but no

Help with test results including vitamins
I have just had test results from Blue Horizon including vitamins. I take 75 Levothyroxine and 10 t3 self sourced. Levo reduced by doctor due to suppressed TSH I persuaded her not to reduce again which she wanted to do by taking in last blood results with t4 and t3. I always felt well on 100 Levo and

Switching from NDT back to T3 only
Is something like NDT (T4) withdrawal symptoms possible? To be exact, if you are on T3 only but due to some circumstances have to take NDT for a couple of weeks as a replacement and then again can switch back to T3 only, then because of the longer half-life of T4 (up to 9 days I've read), can it become

Postpartum thyroiditis?
Hi everyone, Just a bit of a random one. So I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in Dec 2023 (7 months postpartum). It was a bit of a shock tbh. I since found out about Postpartum thyroiditis and wondered if my diagnosis was related to that and would somehow sort itself out in a year - 18 months? I'm

referral - why?
My rheumatologist referred me to an endocrinologist because like many others I was struggling a bit reducing. I was on 4mg of pred. Apparently my synacthen test showed a normal basal level and a post of 432 - suboptimal but near normal. However the endocrinologist said he was “unsure whether it would
