tired
I’ve been trying to get my t3 levels up getting a private prescription from a gp. Im now on 15 mcg split into 3 doses plus 50 mcg levothyroxine. I still feel awful and worry that as I was only sub clinical I’ve maybe overdone it I did have clinical symptoms of fatigue, weight gain, low mood raynauds

Vitamins for PD
Hey all! Just wondering, what general “vitamin pill“ do you recommend for PD? From time to time, I see people talking about Hardy. Wondering if there’s something particularly special about that one? I personally have been using raw one by vitamin code… Any thoughts on this topic? Thanks :-)

Switching from Levothyroxine to Liothyronine
Hello, I hope everyone is well. I haven’t written on here for a while as I’ve been feeling quite well so hope you don’t mind me coming back to you now. Although I feel good on my current dose of thyroxine and definitely don’t feel I’m taking too much, my endocrinologist wants to lower my thyroxine

For anyone who is on T3 only... When did you realise you needed it?
Hi everyone. I've been on a real journey since January with Hashimoto's. I started on levothyroxine and it made me feel a lot worse. I started seeing a private thyroid doctor who looked at my bloods and saw my T3 had dropped on levo, and with my symptoms she decided levo was not right for me and put

Adrenal/Cortisol issues- help please
So it's recently been bought to my attention that my struggles to tolerate any t4 t3 medication could be down to low cortisol or adrenal issues, is this common? I'm starting to question if adrenal issues are actually my main problem? I was diagnosed 'subclinical hypo' last year and have been on varying

Blood results within range. Is this a problem?
Hi all,
I posted this query a few days ago and it was kindly analysed for me by greygoose (comments further down). However, I didn't understand what he/she was telling me - so I wonder if anyone could explain for me? Do the results indicate hypothyroidism? Do I need meds or can I tweak via

Recent blood results 😳
Hi all, I would really appreciate your views on my blood results- bloods taken how we are advised on here to follow. Endo has advised to reduce Levo to 100mcg & reduce Liothyrine to 10mcg - I can’t understand how I’m feeling worse again (never been optimal) In all honesty I feel like stopping all meds

Filling the syringe
I did my first 8 subcutaneous b12 injections as I was shown by the doctor. Since then the nurse at my g.p. surgery has been doing my injections every 2 weeks as prescribed. (She offered me the choice of continuing to do it myself or she would do it.)The consultant had told me if I wanted to give myself
