CBD drops for RA pain
I take 100mcg levothyroxine at approx. 6am daily . At 4pm today I took half a pipette of over the counter CBD Oil which had the immediate effect of raising my heartbeat just as I used to experience when at the dentist I received injections for anasthaesia which contained adrenalin .( I now know to

Adrenal tumour - anyone here with experience with it?
Hey everyone, My aldosterone levels are very elevated at 409 (range up to 190). I'm waiting for the adrenal MRI. My endo said he's suspecting adrenal adenoma since my ACTH was low, blood cortisol high, unable to raise thyroid meds or raising and having symptoms. Anyone here diagnosed with it or know

when to take T3 if already taking levothyroxine
hi. I’ve just received my T3 (Tiromel) and I’ve been advised that my dose is 5MG daily. I take 50 MG levothyroxine on waking each day. When is best to take the T3? At the same time? Is food/caffeine/other medication to be avoided for a few hours after similar to the levothyroxine? Thanks!

Liothyroine tablet to capsules?
Hi not posted here in a while so today I was told my TSH is super low below 0.5 and my bloodwork was done before taking my t3. Currently take 40 mcg liothyroine in tablet form. They suggested I go down to 30mcg daily 15 in morning 15 in evening. However they have swapped it to liothyroine capsules.

Anything I should be doing for auto-immune hypothyroid?
Hi there, I was recently diagnosed by hypothyroidism as GP blood test showed a high TSH level (14.69) along with the symptoms I was experiencing (general tiredness, terrible immune system and weekly cold sores). They didn't do any other tests, and I was keen to also get a baseline on my T3/T4 levels,

Hypothyroidism and levothyroxine treatment only inadequate?
I had a bad experience on levothyroxine only. I am now on T3 but not optimal yet although much better than I was on the levo.I had to go to hospital appointment regarding my dupuytrens contracture, and the doctor, who was going through my medications list, asked why I wasn't on levothyroxine. I told

male hormones
Hi Ladies and Gents I wanted to ask if anyone knows where I can find a group/expert about male hormones? It’s for my husband, he has no thyroid issues, it’s about other hormones. He did a Randox test and it turns out he has elevated FSH, LH, Prolactin and Oestradiol. His Testosterone is ok, he is

Advice needed on thyroxine management
I am hoping someone can advise me about my thyroxine dose. Here's a little background: In September 2023, I was underweight and having trouble gaining weight and suffering from anxiety. I had been on 75mcg of levothyroxine daily for an underactive thyroid. I had recently developed pins and needles

Getting Desperate!
First time poster here! I'm from North Mississippi and I'm needing advice. I have had RLS since 2010 and once I finally got the meds right after diagnosis, I have had very little issues with it. I first tried gabapentin with no relief, then Mirapex with no relief, then Requip worked like a charm.

Sourcing T3
Hi all. Has anyone here tried ordering, or have any information on, a source for T3? I looked up this site and was concerned when I didn't find information I felt confident with. I belong to an exotic cat forum also and people are always posting about being scammed, so I try to get verification before
