NDT to T3
Hello I need some guidance with changing from NDT ERFA Thyroid 135mg to T3 Uni-pharma. I stopped NDT and took 12.5 T3 in the morning for two days now. I was wondering if it's too low of a dose since I was taking 135 mg NDT. I am self medicating since I asked my doctor and she gave me only 5mcg of

Prunes?
Hello all, I love prunes, but I just found out that prunes are an 'excellent source of Vitamin K', which helps blood clot. Since I'm on blood thinners, I'm wondering if I should avoid eating prunes...

LIOTHYRONINE PRESCRIBED AT LAST
Hello everyone, Today I saw an endocrinologist, whom I saw privately back in August and had been waiting to see at an HNS hospital. He agreed to let me have 3 months of T4/T3 combination therapy. He did say he was not sure it would make a difference but worth trying because my quality of life was so

A little disappointed...
I saw my Rheumy on 11/25 and he was satisfied with my progress, just wanted me to try to stay within the tapering “guidelines” of not being on a specific dose >30 days, in other words cut DL’s simple taper by 1 week by making adjustments. I said I’d my best (meaning I’m not changing a darn thing) and
