Ferritin, B12 and folate results
Hi all I’d be grateful for any advice on the following results and details of the best supplements to take if you think I should boost them? The ferritin seems particularly low (even if it is technically in range). I eat red meat and leafy greens but struggle with things like liver so I guess I’d

Does Immunotherapy cause Vasculitis?
Hi, my Mum had vasculitis in 2013 following a bad infection, she continues to take 5mg prednisone to this day.Sadly she has been diagnosed with a stage 2 tumor of the cecum which because of her age and frailty at 81 years old is suggested to be inoperable. Genetic testing reveals its a type of cancer

I posted last week that pharmacy2 u had a problem delivering TEVA thyroxine and I got a prescription to take to a local chemist. I’ve phoned 15 and none have TEVA in stock. Does anyone know of another lactose free thyroxine I can ask for ?

Hashimotos & FT3. Advice needed - Rock bottom - About to try Thybon (poor FT4- FT3 conversion).
Hi Everyone, I have been supported a lot by this community already. Thank you. I am a 39 year old male, living in Ireland. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2019. I started Eltroxin at that time. I started on 25mg, and increased to 50mg at the start of 2023. I generally eat well, and exercise

Prolactin
Have shared the possibility of prolactin feeding advanced pc with mo/urologist . Dr's found the possibility of lowering prolactin interesting but have never heard of anyone using in their practice. If anyone can advise of a doctor using this in their protocol please reply so I can share with my doctors

Visiting Turkey to Buy T3 (Tiromel)
Has anyone been anywhere in Turkey recently (or recently ish!) to buy T3 over the counter? Now that the Greece over the counter route appears to have stopped, I'm considering looking into Turkey. I would much rather buy in person than relying on something being legit when ordering online/buying through

To split or not to split?
I have decided to start self medicating again and used the company I first used to buy some thyroxine. They have changed brands and now only supply Eltroxin in 100 mcg tablets. Tbh I didn't even think about that so ordered some thinking I could just split them as I felt 50 was a better starting point

Headache solved?
As my symptoms started returning, I upped my levo every 3rd day from 50mcg to 75mcg. Headaches started and only went if I upped my T3 from 5mcg to 7.5 mcg (Levo 7am, T3 8am) I take 2 further 5mcg T3 in the day. I sometimes take my second T3 dose as a 7.5mcg dose if I'm really slowing down, grinding to

blood test results help please
hi everyone I hope you don’t mind me asking for help again. I had a blood test request from my endocrinologist last January and was very disappointed he hadn’t requested T4 let alone T3. He’s only interested in TSH and my cholesterol. He also tells me to Jake my Levothyroxine just before a blood test
