update on T3 in Crete
spoke to a few pharmacists on the island yesterday who say it’s impossible to find T3 in Crete. Said it’s been unavailable even for the locals, also passed comment that it’s in short supply in Europe.

Is it over?
I tested using Boots Pregnancy Test Strips on day 10 after 5 day blastocyst transfer using midday urine sample. It was negative. Most likely it won’t turn positive. 😔

TSH non existent after Thyroidectomy
Help …. I was diagnosed with Graves and hyperthyroidism in Jan 22, having my levels go up and down like a yo-yo the endocrinologist suggested having a thyroidectomy. Which I had in Sept 23, after the op I was prescribed 150mcg of levothyroxine, and after 6 weeks a post op blood test, I hadn’t realised

11yo latest results
Hello All, Here are my daughters latest results, I’m still battling with GP plus NHS consultants to get anywhere. She has only been off any B12/folate for 5 weeks (she does eat B12 fortified foods) but has been taking iron. Her medical history is low platelets but she obviously also has hashimotos.

switch from compound to Thybon Henning
Morning all, I’m currently on compound t3 IR as I needed to sort adrenals and increase very slowly. I’m still not optimal but when I am, I’d like to switch to Thybon Henning due to costs. Is it as simple as swapping 10mcg compounded for 10mcg Thybon Hemming (1/2 a 20mcg tablet)? Would appreciate

Opinion on my B12 and folate tests, and what are ideal levels?
I got the results back for my b12 and folate a few days ago. My folate is low, so I have changed my diet to get my folate up that way. I can't tolerate any supplement form even in small doses (folate, folinic, folic acid etc). What about my active b12 - Monitor My Health says it is fine, is that right

Optimal serum ferritin level
Can some of you wonderful people tell me what is the optimal serum ferritin level. Mine has been dropping. It is now 57 ug/l (13 - 300). I feel tired all the time plus brain fog that is the worst it has ever been. Thyroid numbers are not right but GP refuses to do anything as she says I'm normal.

Methylprednisolone: my experience
I just wanted to post my experience of methylprednisolone IV in case it might help someone one day. I was in a big flare so my rheumatologist suggested IV methylprednisolone once a week for 3 weeks. It all happened so quickly I didn't know what to expect and I had a hard time finding any information.

Breathing and standing!
Hello. A disparate couple of questions for you with longer term experience of PV please? I'm having a slightly uncomfortable breathing symptom. Have had it before but it goes after a few days/weeks and doesn't stop me exercising; it's just unpleasant. Previously thought it was due to low ferritin

Using turmeric to lower high ferritin
These are my latest and I’m concerned about high ferritin. It’s been over range at least two years since taking high doses of liquid ionic iron for very low ferritin. Sometimes it’s significantly lower than this but always over, lately Buddy’s post this morning about high dose turmeric piqued my interest

11yo daughters latest results
Hello All, Here are my daughters latest results. She has been off any B12/folate for 5 weeks but has been taking iron. Her medical history is low platelets but she obviously has hashimotos. Really low FT4 but high FT3 (body flogging itself?), very bizarre. Symptoms: tiredness, lack of stamina, breathlessness

Managing Pudendal Neuralgia pain
Hi all, I joined this forum to remain on top of developments around the complex pelvic floor issues affecting women and to seek support from others. In my experience these are generally poorly understood by doctors in the UK especially at consultant level and there is an absence of multi agency support

T3 Moving location
Good Morning We are thinking about relocating to Scotland - Dumfries area but we’re not sure yet as we’re unaware of the T3 situation I have no idea what the hospitals are like or whether I would get my T3 prescriptions there ? What’s the situation with the medication in Scotland. Thanks in

Terminal ileitis
My colonoscopy found mild inflammation in the TI area which they said looked like Terminal Ileitis. Biopsies were taken but they came back normal. I haven't discussed the results with my consultant yet as I had to give in a stool sample to check the calprotectin level first. It looks like it isn't Crohn's

Reducing steroids and adrenal symptoms
I’ve recently experienced symptoms which made me think of Pred-induced diabetes. In particular, my metabolism does not seem to adjust properly to food, with post-prandial dips and especially waking up at 3-4am with uncomfortable overheating. But my HbA1c measurement remains around 41, which is just

Help with test results
Hi,I'm hoping to get insights into my latest test results and symptoms I continue to have. I had my thyroid out in 2012 (Graves), I'm located in Australia and currently taking 100mcg of Eltroxin and 16mcg of slow release (compounded) t3 daily. Around 2yrs ago I got quite sick, I had extremely heavy fatigue

Help with latest results please for endo appointment

synacthen test
I’m to have a synacthen test next week. I am taking 5 mg of prednisolone daily and have been told to stop the pred 3days before the test. Will this be ok. As have been told never to stop steroids suddenly ?
