Help please adding thyroxine to NDT!
Hi there, I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2015, and started on 50 mcg Thyroxine which was an improvement, but soon realised I needed to add T3, so increased to Thyroxine 75 mcg plus 10-20 mcg T3 (I usually took about 10 T3 daily) On 75 thyroxine plus 10-20 mcg T3 (8/8/17) my bloods were 8/8/17 TSH

Added T3 to T4 Advice on Lab results
Five weeks ago I added T3 (4 mcg) to the T4 (.75 mcg), I had been taking for the past 7 years. Seemed to always still have hypo symptoms prior - fatigue, cold hands/feet and circulation issues, brain fog, hair fall, dry skin, being the main ones. Weight gain not an issue as I have gone gluten and sugar

Hyper to Hypo - advice on latest bloods, please?
My levels have gone from these, on diagnosis, 7th November 2018 TSH <0.01 (0.5-4.4) FT4 43 (10-20) FT3 20.6 (3.5-6.5) to these, 4th March 2019 TSH 0.2 (0.5-4.4) FT4 8.9 (10-20) FT3 4.2 (3.5-6.5) The only antibodies they will test for are TPO which were 154.3 (0-60) last December. Endo reduced Carbimazole

I'm new here....
I've submitted two posts before this, but these seem to have caused some confusion, I had no intention of misleading anyone or wasting any ones time, my first was about how shocked I was over how little GP's know about hypothyroidism/ Hashi's and to thank people on here for the valuable info I had learnt

Fluctuations in T3
Hello everyone I recall someone sharing a post explaining the different possible reasons for poor conversion from T4 to T3. Unfortunately I can’t find it. Could you remind me plse. Also is it normal for T3 to fluctuate ? Mine is 3.8 pmol/L (3.2-6.8) with T4 19.4 (12-22) and TSH 1.02 mU/L (0.27-4.2)

test results please comment
I guess I have Hashimoto's. Discovered it by chance. Have developed skin condition called Granuloma anulare, which is known to be linked with Thyroid autoimmunity... GP would not test for that, so did a private test, which came up with ATG ab at 457 ( norm is less then 115). Digging in more and it seems

Thyroid hyper to hypo in 2 months, no medication...
I'm really bewildered about what's going on with my thyroid. I went to my GP at the end of Dec with a sore/swollen throat, fairly sure it was thyroid related. She ordered blood tests and an ultrasound, she could feel my thyroid was large. These tests came back showing hyperactive thyroid: TSH 0.01

Any have tingly hands/arms
For about two months have had mildly irritating nerve issues in my hands and a little but on the tops on my arms. My feet occasionally have a little numbness and even in my cheeks I sometimes feel a little wonky. I've been diagnosed with Hashimoto's for about a year and a half. I've been undermedicated

New results, anyone's thoughts please.
I have been taking levothyroxine since around June last year and am currently on 75mcg. Last December I visited an endocrinologist as blood tests suggested poor conversion from T4 to T3. My results in December were: TSH 0.409 (0.27-4.2) T4 18.5 ( 12-22) T3 4.77 ( 3.1-6.8) TG antibodies 374 ( 0-115) TPO
