Thank you to everyone who has previously offered advice on this website, I’m writing again in need of a little bit more advice. I followed your suggestion, spoke to my consultant, and suggested that initially raising my T4 might help. He sent a second email to my GP and on the 4th April 2024, I began

Finally! My Thyroid Disease is Treated Optimally! :)
I just thought I would post my experience, prompted by my reply to a previous poster, who asked what they could realistically expect from optimal treatment. I think its helpful to see those that are happy on medication and their journey. I have been taking 75mcg of levo and 20mcg of lio daily for about

What are you supposed to do......
GP reduces Levo to get TSH within range.Patient returns to GP with hypo symptoms again. Patient explains that they feel best when T4 (which [i]always[/i] gets tested if TSH below range) is nearing top of range. Patient shows GP private results showing T4 roughly mid-range. GP says they cannot accept
