New prescription of ERFA with levo decrease
Hi everyone I've recently had my first consult with a recommended Endo on TUK list and also some people in my local thyroid group. Mostly good reviews but one person unhappy with him. He's putting me on NDT as says I'm not converting FT4 to FT3 as I suspected. So sorry its so long, I've tried to ask

Cortisol test
Result of morning cortisal test was 131 which is rubbish (range 102-535) and explains why I feel exhausted some days. Have been on 3mg for several weeks. Looks like it’s a Synacthen test next. Thanks PMRpro for the info on that. Is the experience ok anyone out there who’s had one?

Help for a friend please
Please could someone have a look at my friend’s recent blood test results. Some years ago, she can’t remember when, she was diagnosed with borderline hypothyroidism and given medication for this. She can’t remember what this was or the dose but the doctor told her to stop taking it after a short while

One more step along the road I go 🎵
I ‘piggybacked’ on someone else’s post yesterday - apologies - as it opened up a line of thought but which I was rightly advised to post separately. This is it. Could someone help harness my straying thoughts re converting T4 to T3? I’ve been on a low dose, 75mcgs levo for two years now, initially

What can my NHS GP test for ?
I can see that a thyroid panel is : TSH , FT4 , FT3, Thyroglobulin antibodies , Thyroid peroxidase antibodies . Can this whole test be ran by my NHS GP ? Has any one else had it done via the NHS my GP said he can only test for TSH but I’m not really in a position to be able to go and get a private test

Can levo cause low FT3?
Hi I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s, suspect both for decades but never tested/ treated until 2 years ago. I also took private tests at the same time and whilst my TSH and FT4 were both around 8, my FT3 was optimal. I was put on levo by GP and titrated to 100mcg but last autumn got worse, (also privately

How I felt was gradual at first and more like fatigue and gastic upsets, intermittent mild tingling, over the last few years, but last year my

I’ve now had my TPG result and it was 47 (<34) range . They also did my T3 which was 4.27 (3.1 - 6.8) range. T4 was 22.5 (11-23) range. My T4 has never been this high. They also re did my TSH which was only done 2 days earlier. This time it was 2.9, yet only 2 days earlier it was 4.4. GP said not

types of T3
Hi all I currently take Roma T3 capsules my prescription is due for renewal and I’m interested to know what other types of T3 are available and what people’s experience is with them. I’m not 100% sure the Roma capsules agree with me, it is also hard to split doses before blood tests. As always, very

Transitioning to Armour Thyroid
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid at 21 and I've also got Hashimoto's. I recently changed from Levo/T3 to Armour, under the guidance of a lovely private endo, and I'm currently on three and a half grains per day, split into two doses. I wondered if anyone else has had side effects
