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

Medicheck results – help please
Today I received my results from Medichecks in preparation for my consultation with Roseway Labs next week. I wondered if you kind people could shed some light on the results, I’m a bit confused, especially with my ferritin which is now 429 (30-332) which was 43 (10 – 291) less than a year ago. I’ve

Questions for Endocrinologist
Today is the day, I am finally seeing an endocrinologist. Any suggestions of things to ask? Trying to be optimistic about the appointment but quietly cautious. Below are the questions I have so far: - FT3 measurement to ensure adequate conversion - Pregnancy monitoring and appropriate FT4 and TSH levels

response regarding my endocrinologist complaint
Hi, I am sharing the letter I received from the hospital ( it’s taken them well over 6 months). I was so ‘cheesed off’ with the reply that it’s taken me 3 days to read it again and then I spilt coffee on it 🥴. I don’t know why I thought I’d get anything better, but the response is actually farcicle

T3/T4/TSH testing after starting T3
I've added T3 about 3 months ago and this is my first test so I want to get it right.I reduced levothyroxine and added 20mcg T3 and am now on (usually) 30mcg with 125mcg. I see levo should be stopped 24hrs pre test and T3 12-25hrs pre test unless peak T3 are required which they arent at the moment. Test

Latest Medicheck Results
I re-started Levo 7 weeks ago and these are my before/after results. I’m self medicating and also use 7.5 -10mg hydrocortisone daily. Without the HC I feel very peculiar and have in the past, stopped the thyroid meds because of it. I’ve managed to be fairly ok this time and I’d like some feedback on

Got GP appointment but what to say to get him to test anything more than TSH
Hi 3 months ago I wrote a post about my daughters results since 2018 & her vitamin levels which are dire. It has taken her this long to manage to get a telephone appointment with a GP next Wednesday. My question is what does she say to convince them to test more than just her TSH. I went through

Please enlighten me!!!
I have not had labs since 2023 and needed new RX. The following are results from 4/11 at which time I had not taken any thyroid meds for one week. I had really been concerned about the possibility of heart issues due to over 6 months of extreme fatigue, inability to do even light excercise, shortness

Fatigue, coma naps and pituitary
Hey everyone, Has anyone experienced such bouts of fatigue where you fall asleep and you just have to fall asleep that given moment and you are gone for an hour? This started happening to me in July last year, but got increasingly worse over time. I thought it was my iron, but I fixed that with iron

Is it worth doingan econsult Monday?
The story... Back on March my GP tested my tsh (as part of cfs testing) and it was 1.88. Start of April I caught a virus and then the week after onwards my symptoms gradually were increasing and I missed a few days of work. April 19 (I think it was) I got my tsh, t3 and t4 done via Medichecks.

Blood results within range. Is this a problem?
Hi all,
I posted this query a few days ago and it was kindly analysed for me by greygoose (comments further down). However, I didn't understand what he/she was telling me - so I wonder if anyone could explain for me? Do the results indicate hypothyroidism? Do I need meds or can I tweak via

Hi, I just did my annual thyroid test. It's not disastrous, but my Ft3 has dropped to the lowest it's been in many, many years. I did wonder if I was slightly undermedicated as I randomly had a migraine a few weeks ago and lots of low level headaches (not had migraines since I was last hypo - 13 years
