Poorly controlled hypothyroidism and a susceptibility to viral infections.
My T3 was on 19% on my most recent test. In the space of a few months I’ve had almost every virus . I’ve had flu A RSV and now Covid with very high temperatures. Before I started this journey on levothyroxine I was never ill rarely had anything at all. This has completely floored me I’ve never been so

hi, I can’t afford to pay my local pharmacy price for my T3 any more (£97 for 28). I’ve asked Roseway Pharmacy for a quote - I have a private prescription for 6 months supply. I’d be really grateful if someone can please advise me if they buy from Roseway Labs and if all is fine as they require photo

You might or might not know that I have been accumulating information about thyroid issues in my blog - I have created a significant number of pages now. Many will be aware of some of the specific pages which I link to quite regularly. But you might not have realised what else is there. Below is a copy

So my new Gp decided I was draining the NHS by taking T3 so as you may remember they refused to prescribe it even though endo first prescribe it 4 years ago and previous GP had no issues prescribing it, long story short they asked for a blood test as I argued if your refusing to prescribe me T3 ( I

Medichecks results
I finally got my medichecks results and am a bit confused with the results. March 22 the GP tested my tsh and it was 1.88. I am very surprised to see it has gone up so fast. Also my t4 & t3 don't look as low as I was expecting. Medichecks results : Test taken on April 17, 7am, empty stomach. Tsh:

Reducing thyroxine from 100 mcg to 75 mcg
My recent blood test is: FT4 18.4 (range 7.9-14.4) FT3 6.6 (range 3.8-6.0) TSH <0.02. My TSH always seems to be this no matter what dose I’m on. I was on 150 mcg years ago and have been gradually reducing my dose mainly because of my TSH when other results were in range. In 2023 my FT4 went above range

Lactose intolerant
I am changing from Armour Thyroid to synthetic T4 and T3, due to cost and that a local Endo has agreed to this on the NHS. However I’m super sensitive to lactose and the hospital pharmacy are dithering about finding lactose free options. Does anyone know which brands are lactose free please?
