Having seen an Endo privately, he has prescribed three months of Liothyronine 5mcg to take once a day alongside 100mcg of thyroxine to see if my side effects improve.. The GP refused to sanction it and has asked the Endo to prescribe privately, and if I show improvement after the three months, the GP

Levo Brands/NICE guidelines
TT two years’ ago from being hypER with goitre. Now on 125mgs Accord Levo. Various ‘symptoms’ but apart from weight gain my main concerns are breathlessness/balance issues/food sensitivities. An interesting consult with my gp this morning and I would like to see what comments the forum might

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

Confusing first results on T4/T3
Hi all, I'm reposting this as I didn't get any replies 😊 Please see my first results 6 weeks after introducing T3. I'm on 125mcg of levo and 10mcg of lio. I am very confused because I was certain that my current symptoms were due to being undermedicated! And how can my T4 be top of range again despite

Still Looking for Suggestions
So my post kind of got highjacked into multiple directions. LOL! So I started and new one. My concern is still how to withdrawl from Ropinarole without losing my mind during the DAY. I have something for nighttime but the US is so paranoid from the abuse of opioids that only a miracle would help me
