TSH how long for suppressed TSH to return to normal after stopping T3?
I saw a ‘hormone specialist’ GP today. Again she tried to tell me I need to reduce my levothyroxine because of my suppressed TSH. Only saw her because she’s meant to be good with HRT, but she’s gone mad about my TSH. My FT4 is only 48-% through range, so if anything, I’d like to increase my levo!

Combination therapy T4 + T3
Hi, since 2 weeks I started to take 10 mcg T3/ 2 days on top of my daily levothyroxine. I remember my periodic cycle was 24 days instead of 28 days when TSH was rising before. Today I was surprised to get my period at d23?! I am confused again. Was expecting the opposite.

Covid advice
Has anybody got any advice on how to deal with Covid when on combination therapy? I've just gone down with it for the first time and I'm wondering if I should just continue as normal. Have a pretty high fever and heart rate...wd the T3 exacerbate this?

Stopped meds for 2 weeks, or 6 weeks and hey presto I'm back to severely over. Now hairless. I found the name of the Consultant I'd been referred

Ouch that hurt 🤕
Involved in RTC on Friday, luckily just Bruised Ribs and abdomen.I have spondylitis, damaged discs lumber to sacral, and am awaiting a new hip, which is playing havoc with my TKR, so the added pain really wasn't needed. Hopefully this app will help me get motivated.

HRT and cirrhosis
I have heard conflicting opinions as to the safety of HRT and cirrhosis. I have cirrhosis. UKELD score 48. KPA score 37.5. My GP has changed my (low dose) HRT to a gel and tablet: Gel = Oestrogel 80g . Tablet = Medroxyprogesterone 5mg. The enclosed leaflets, however, say ‘do not take’ if you have

Chiropractors
Sometimes I comment on chiropractors and how they can affect health issues. I posted this on another post and thought maybe some people, who do not read that post, could be interested. There is a chance that the condition of the spine could have something to do with AF. Heart doctors generally do not

Discrepancy in test results on same dose
I’ve recently had two blood tests - one at the GP surgery, and one at home fingerprick test with Monitor My Health. They’ve come back with quite different results (for FT4, at least) despite being on the same dose, tests done at the same time of day under the same conditions (24 hrs after levo, T3 dose

Overweight with a high BMI
I have stage 4 endometriosis and adenomyosis with bowel and bladder adhesions and cyst's on both ovaries.My consultant is really good, however he has specified that I need to get my BMI down to 35 or below before I'd be considered for a full hysterectomy (I've already waited over three years for one)
