T4 conversion and B12 complex
Hello, hope you are all well. I am currently taking Levothyroxine 50mg daily and have been since May, feeling slightly better in some ways so some positives. I have been reading about the thyroid only supporting 20% of T4 to T3 and the complex B12 can support this in addition. Does anyone have any experience

PBC LIFE
I was diagnosed with PBC and 2017. My alkaline phosphate levels were 277. I was told I was gonna go in the liver transplant list or I was going to die. I was prescribed URSODIOL and Oclavia. My levels started to go down, but I was starting to have a reaction from the Oclavia, causing me to have eczema

reverse out twice?
Hi Friends, I was diagnosed with b12d in June 2023. I found a way to get weekly shots, and largely got better from the horrible neuro symptoms. I then got proper loading doses and such in September 2024 - thanks to a good hematologist. Then I discovered my ferritin dropped. I have tried , unsuccessfully

Splitting my T4 dose (amazing results)
Hi all I haven't been here for many years. Doing well generally. Thought I would share a simple thing I tried a good while ago now, but it has made a huge difference to my health. I simply split my T4 dose into 2 portions per 24h. I do 75mcg at bedtime and then 50mcg approx 12h's later. So

More studies showing that SGLT2 inhibitors might be a useful prodrug for PCa
MateoBeach posted on SGLT2 inhibitors a year ago. Now three more studies show promise for prostate cancer. Note that the last study is a preprint. Pharmacological targets of SGLT2 inhibition on prostate cancer mediated by circulating metabolites: A drug-target Mendelian randomization study Y Lin,

Pain Investigations - IBS?
I think I am maybe looking some advice, or perhaps some reassurance from anyone going through similar... I feel quite deflated lately. I have had intestinal/abdominal issues since I was about 17 when I was hospitalised. I am almost 30 now and still dealing with the pains. At 17 I had all sorts of testing

Self sourcing T3
Please could anyone private message me with a T3 source? And probably a long shot but I am hoping to find a lactose free T3 but at this point any T3 sources would be great. Thanks in advance.

T3 Poor response
hello all, it feels a little if I am going in circles. The final one being on t3 exclusively- 30mg @ 0430; 20mg @1030 and 20mg @ 1430 ….. if I take it any later I can’t sleep. This has been gradually increased over time and the last month or so I have been feeling awful with the regular terrible symptoms

Blood result in a&e
Morning all, I have been struggling for the last year with fatigue memory problems and multi nodular goitre. My GP has been uninterested so I was going to get private tests on T3 and T4 following advice on here. I have ended up in a&e with palpitations, high heart rate and b/p. My notes have been uploaded

PMR or Rheumatoid Arthritis?
I have been treated for PMR and been on prednisone since July 2021. I have had 13 infusions of Actemra over the past year. I have had many ups and downs, including being weaned very slowly off prednisone and having to go back on it. Although there is no proof, I truly believe that having two shoulder
