Experiences of NDT v Levo and Lio
Hello again, I have been trialling NDT (2 grains since mid March 2024. I was previously on 75mcg Levo and 10mcg Lio (from NHS Endo) but still had symptoms. Both T4 and T3 levels are better on NDT yet I’m not feeling improvement. The private GP I saw increased my dose to 2.25 grains and I felt jittery

To Big Tow Arthritis
I have mild arthritis in my foot. I use Wiley's Wild Alaskan Fish oil 2300 MG, half a teaspoon daily and have no foot pain. If I forget it for a few days the pain returns. It's good for the heart and brain as high Omega 3. Apparently its stronger than other fish oils. Hope it helps.

More advice please on blood tests
Hi again, and further to my last post could someone please advise me on recent blood tests. After appointment with Roseway labs Pharmacist on 23rd April I increased T3 to 10ug daily . Since my previous bloods showed T4 at the top of the range I reduced that from 100ug daily to 100ug 5 days per week

Goitrogens
I've just discovered that there is a group of foods called Goitrogens. Every day I have a berry and Kale smoothy - thinking myself to be very healthy. Now I find out that large amounts of uncooked berries and Kale can cause hypothyroidism and restrict the beneficial effects of Levothyroxine and T3.

I want to give up. I have no energy to keep going.
Hi all, I've been suffering for the past many years. Since 2022 everything went downhill and I had to quit my job as I can't function. I'm 40 years old. I was tested for everything under the sun and everything is down to thyroid. I have Hashis. I have tried many med combos, everything fails on me. Recently

Assistance with T3 source please
Hi would appreciate if anyone can assist with a reliable T3 source please. Ideally I am looking for tabs that I can split into small doses i.e. 5cmg as extra T3 to take (and titrate slowly upwards) alongside my morning dose of T4/T3. Posting this in line with the moderators rule of this forum below

Is it B12 anemia? I’m confused.
Hello all, I’m new here and not sure if I need to pursue some concerns I have with my health so wondered if anyone could possible give me some advice/guidance. I’ve always been tired, (it’s a family joke!), struggled with gut issues (mainly constipation), and in the last 5 or so years had terrible brain

Is this subclinical hyperthyroidism?
I recently had a blood test which showed that my TSH was 0.27mU/L (0.35.5.5) and T4 was 11.3pmol (10-20). I'm waiting to hear back from my doctor, but does this show that there's potentially an issue with my thyroid? This is all new to me so I would appreciate some help, thank you.

Binding globulins...
Anyone got a good handle on these, please? The reason I ask is that I have had 3 months of increasingly debilitating fatigue. I take T3 only and was on 100mcg, which took me 70% through the range, I have also tried 125mcg which takes me well over the top, but still tiredddddd. I have tested cortisol

Levo with someprazole and bisoprolol
Is there any reason why I cannot take Levothyroxine at the same time as esomesprazole and Bisoprolol? I KNOW Levo should be taken an hour before anything else but just want to know if anything in these other meds would prevent thyroxine uptake. Thank you.

I helped a long term sufferer today
Got chatting recently to a lady on FB who lives in my town. She happened to mention that she is hypo and been on meds for about 6yrs. Funnily enough she is registered with the same GP Surgery as me. Anyway she was complaining that she was always so tired and achy etc and I asked what dosage she was
