Porridge with semi-skimmed organic milk. How long should one wait before eating as it contains calcium from milk, when taking levothyroxine.

Low TSH - but Dr increasing Levo?
Serum

Have I been tested for T3 abnormalities
Hello. I wonder if anyone can help? I was diagnosed hypothyroidism approx 10 days ago. I notice lots of forums mention T3. Is it important that it is tested and from my results below do you think it has been tested? I feel a new symptom and worse each day I am on 50 mcg levothyroxine daily. Thanks☺

Increase
Hi just got home from seeing my consultant had my first appointment last October as my cholesterol levels where very high 9.5 good cholesterol was a high reading and bad cholesterol was low so she said it was in the family, high heart attack rate in my family and all below the age of 50. My daughter

Free Triiodothyronine/Free Thyroxine Ratio rather than Thyrotropin is more associated with Metabolic Parameters in Healthy Euthyroid Adults
Just how healthy were the subjects that [i]any [/i]of them went on to develop metabolic syndrome? Nonetheless, this is interesting in that it reinforces the importance of FT3 (even just as it relates to FT4 to produce the FT3:FT4 ratio) and reduces, again, the power of the TSH test. [i]Clin Endocrinol

both hyper and hypo symptoms on T4+T3 combo? Could that be?!?
Long story short. 1. Graves - thyroidectomy - T4 only only worked for a while than crashed into mental and physical meltdown with hypo symptoms 2. Switched to T4/T3 combo, went quite well for more than a year and now feels a crash is around the corner. Funny thing is now the symptoms are from both worlds

Aggressive PCa - Cholesterol - Statins
New German study below. I often feel, in talking about statins, that I need to explain that I am horrified by the number of Americans using them. (& no, I haven't been overdosing on Dr. Mercola.) Coming up to age 70, I am not on any prescriptions except those I have chosen to be on for PCa - & that

Pravastatin Effective Dosage
Hello - I've been on 40mg Pravastatin for about 4 months now. I had a follow up lipid panel, and my cholesterol's effectively been cut by over 40% (from 251 to 153). Given this reduction, I'd like to get on a smaller dose (20mg) but so far the Doctor has resisted and wants to see how my levels are in

Is it the thyroid problem that makes me feel so ill ?
I have never been told my thyroid reading and neither by
HDL
or LDL for the
cholesterol
reading. Checking on the thyroid UK website apparently my blood tests can appear normal even if they are not !

Cholesterol level
Hi. My cholesterol is at 5.5. I am a 27 year old male. Is this very bad considering my age? I don't exercise and was told exercising could make a huge difference and bring it down quickly.

Blood test results - advice pls
Hi We have just received the results of a Medichecks health check blood test on my husband. I wanted him to get it done (bear with me it is relevant!) because he had a cholesterol test about a year ago as part of a health check he gets with work and it was a little high. He also does a very stressful

BELLY FAT - A risk for the development of diabetes and CVD.
Indeed, belly fat is a key indicator of “metabolic syndrome,” a cluster of abnormalities that include high levels of blood sugar, blood pressure, and triglycerides, as well as low levels of “good”

. This combination of risks has an impact on mortality from heart disease.
