Hypothyroid for 18 years. Discovered high cholesterol recently. Can I start using plant sterols alongside Thyroxine??
Also have tried increasing thyroxine (temporarily) for 3 months, to see if cholesterol results come down. They have come down from 8.9 to 7.5 in that 3 months. Not low enough I know, but it has reduced it. Trying my best not to be put on statins if I possibly can, or BP meds. Has anyone tried Plant

Drug combinations
Hi all, I wonder if anyone on the forum is taking both Thyroxine and Alendronic Acid (AA)? I am taking a cocktail of drugs, as so many of us are, but have put off taking AA since diagnosed with PMR in 2022 - cannot believe where those 2 years went... I've been on Thyroxine (150 mcg/daily) for nigh

Sensitive - prolonged management of miscarriage - 3 attempts...
🤗 Hello, hope everyone is doing well. Just a bit of a update. I had a non viable pregnancy with a empty sac as a result of a FET. 1st I thought it would pass naturally. But I still had a really strong positive 2 weeks after a 8 week scan. So i had medical management. Still a strong positive 3 weeks

I’m currently on 125mcg of levothyroxine. Overall I’m feeling much better with most bothersome results now being constipation and intense itching which comes and goes. My doctors seem very reluctant to increase my levo and I’ve had to push for each increase so far. These are my recent results.

Blood test results advice since starting T3
Just got my medichecks results through. Tests taken pre 9am, fasted with delayed T4 and split T3 dose as per protcol. To recap, I added 1 x 5mcg T3 for the first time about 8 weeks ago. Endo told me to reduce my thyroxine from 125 x 6/100x1 . I didnt do this, but reduced half way and have been taking

Fatigued with anxiety
Hi, I have hypothyroidism which was diagnosed three years ago and am currently on Levothyroxine 100mg daily. My memory has improved to a more normal level but I wake up every morning barely able to open my eyes and in work I am able to function, but I lack sharpness and feel detached, almost like I am

Perplexing results. I wondered if anyone had any thoughts?
I was wondering if any one had any thoughts on my results I’m 14 years post RAI and have been on levothyroxine for 8 years and I seem to be very sensitive to dose change. I don’t have thyroid antibodies just a toxic adenoma. They run my T4 higher around 19- 22 for conversion for T3, my consultant

Stopping Block and Replace
After 8 long years I have decided to try stopping BR ( 5mg. Carbimazole and 75 mcg. Levo ) to check for remission. Just come back from GP appoint. that unexpectedly went well ( usually try and avoid them for thyroid issues) I chose a GP trainer hoping he might know a bit more about AITD. Receptionist

Help sourcing T3
My supplier has no Tiromel available and I have only about a weeks supply left. Contacted them in January thinking I'd be organised and not leave it till the last minute so I wouldn't run out. Unfortunately they are having supply issues and have sold out. I know this is not a topic for open discussion

T3 Timings Please
Just wondered how much space to leave in between T3 doses, currently taking 6.25mcg in the very early hours with Levo and then taking the next 6.25mcg around lunchtime/ early PM. Is this leaving enough time or too much time between doses? Not sure how long T3 lasts. I'm obviously aiming for consistent
