Early days on T3
Good morning, I started T3 just under 3 weeks ago as prescribed by a private Endo. He started me on 10mcg daily which I took for the first week. After reading some posts on this forum I reduced the dose to 5mcg daily as I was experiencing palpitations. A further 2 weeks in and the palpitations seem

Next step in solving the mystery of my burning feet, but need a little bit of advice
Hi all I’m in need of some more advice. As suggested, I’ve tried raising my vitamin levels since Nov 2023 and although not perfect, they’ve gone up. I’m still having burning in my feet so decided to go to a consultant. Below are my most recent bloods. 7th Feb 2024 Medichecks Blood tests

Anyone take Co Q10 and are on T4/T3?
I’m seriously thinking of adding Co q10 to my daily routine. I get migraines, and having watched many chats on the World Migraine Summit recently, it stands out as something that might help. (I’m 58, so won’t be taking it for fertility reasons). I’m not on anything that might be contraindicated with

Light Bleeding, BFN 11DP5DT. Two days till period due and OTD… Any hope?
I’m such an idiot. I’ve had a very rough few days and today I got some very light bleeding. From my research it could easily be implantation bleeding, but my mind went nuts and straight to the fear of period, and like some possessed zombie I grabbed my pregnancy test and did 1, it came up negative :

Update in sustained release T3 and new paper
The recent review of treatment for hypothyroidism recommended further research to look at combination therapy. A group in Iran have done the following trial looking at sustained release combination T4/T3. Fascinating…… it suggests that daily sustained release capsules can deliver a stable T3 level over

HRT related
Hello 🌷 Please may I ask how much HRT are ladies on? Last night I accidentally left my old Evorel patch on (1 put a new one on every 3.5 days instead of the 3 day /4 day combo) and put on the new one. I realised it this morning and took the old one off. I guess it was still giving me oestrogen because

Hyperthyroid symptoms and dosage?
I was diagnosed with borderline hyperthyroidism in 2020 due to a toxic multinodular goitre and started on 5mg Carbimazole which I’ve taken since that time. I’ve never felt that the medication has completely controlled my hyper symptoms and still have bouts of sleeplessness and racing heart. My endocrinologist

At a loss and feeling ill
Went to Drs yesterday to request a referal to an endo, as I feel unwell, weak and wobbley - for well over a year now. I told him that I had paid for a private blood test to check my t3 levels, as the Nhs doesn't like doing them that often, and he totally refused to look at them. Said that, if theyre
