I have also been taking Thorne Basic B complex. Levothyroxine 100/112.5 alternating. What are the issues and

Still on 50mcgs Levo and symptoms returningā¦
Morning everyone, Itās been a while since I last posted; And no surprises but Iām still on 50mcgs with symptoms I had before I was diagnosed returning. My GP refuses to increase because my last blood test done in January showed my FT4 at 19.4 and he said he doesnāt want it to get any higher than that

Jaw/Tooth ache with Liothyronine
In previous posts I've mentioned my poor conversion of T4 to T3 following thyroidectomy over 2 years ago. As a consequence in January I went to a private endo and got a script for 90 tablets of Thybon Henning T3 20mcg which I got from Roseway Labs. I started taking these which I split 10mcg am and 10mcg

test results
Hi I received these blood test results today but didnāt receive any explanation and wondered if anyone knew if they were within the normal range before I can eventually speak to a doctor. Also my FIT test came back negative but my calprotectin was raised at 65. many thanks.

N.I.C.E to stop the use of Lyiothronine (T3 ) prescribing
I have just heard from my local Pharmacist that she is finding it very difficult to source my T3 as the National Institute for Clinical Excellence is shortly to implement a ban on the use of T3 as they state that.... "Levothyroxine is a safe and acceptable form of therapy for those requiring replacement

Tests to take prior to endo appointment
Hello I have a first appointment with an endocrinologist in 12 days. I've written asking what tests he would like me to take beforehand so as to save time and money at our first meeting. No reply, unfortunately. Clearly, I should be getting MSH, FT3, FT4 and TPO would be required. Any others?
