Increasing Nature Throid dosage
Hi, I just started Nature Throid yesterday with 1/4 grain i.e. 16.25 mg and I'm meant to increase it by 1/4 grain once a week until I have 65mg (4 weeks). Does someone have experience of this kind of dosage? I was told by someone that it's too low. Did your symptoms get worse while increasing the dosage

Gluten free newbie
Hi all I have 4 stone to loose and have been trying for what seems like forever. When I first put on weight I was diagnosed with underactive thyroid and I take medication for that. I am also Coeliac so have a Gluten free diet. The more weight I put on the less I eat but I know that doesn't work really

Hashimotos and gluten free diet
I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid (and was told my antibodies were high although doctors seem reluctant to diagnose Hashimotos) two years ago and six months later went on a gluten free diet. I did so to see if it would help my migraines. Even though its been 18 months its still early days but

hello, I'm wondering if I am over-medicated. I have Hashimoto's and have been on 100mcg levothyroxine since end march 2017 - an increased dose from 75mcg as my TSH had gone up to 2.75. I had another blood test two week ago and my results are as follows:TSH 0.27 (0.27-4.2) T4 20.2 (10.8-25.5) But I have

HELP I'm new here
I'm so confused, my father and niece both have wheat intolerances and lactose intolerances and are on a gluten free diet now that has been confirmed. Both suffered from bloating under the ribs to the bikini line so bad they look pregnant, they have had both constipation and bouts of diahrrea as well

Trying NDT for the first time - are you supposed to feel hypo?
Three days in: I've been on 1 and a half grains of Armour. Am splitting the dose: 1 grain in the morning, half a grain after 1pm.

Stomach upset lasting so long
Hello there. I Was diagnosed coeliac 19 years ago and follow a gluten free diet. I wanted to seeing if any other fellow coeliacs have experienced the same thing. I'm 49 years old and in the last twelve months I've been struck down with two bouts of diarrhoea. Both have been doing the rounds at work.
