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

Help please,where do I go from here??
Hi everyone, I have had my repeat bloods and everything has come back ‘satisfactory’. I know that doesn’t mean optimal but I also know I’m going to have a hard time convincing the doctor that! I had my free T4 and anti bodies tested at the hospital when I saw the consultant last week, I have requested

PGTA testing embryos made from donor eggs
Hello I appreciate there will be differing views and experiences with this. Has anyone PGTA tested their egg donation embryos? I have had 2 miscarriages and TFMR at 15 weeks (all own eggs) due to chromosomal issue that we didn't know about until we went for our NHS scan at 12 weeks. I will never forget

Experience with Covid and hypo/hashis
Hi all, I’ve been quite stable for a number of years now. I was on NDT and doing ok but not perfect, adding a small amount of Levo to my NDT at the end of 2019 made me feel really well, pulling my FT4 up in the range a bit made a big difference. At the beginning of May this year I thought I caught

Help I don’t understand
So for the last 4 months I’ve been having pain in my muscles and head as well as tingling and a burning sensation. Also extreme fatigue and a red rash on my cheeks and trouble swallowing.My doctor gave me prednisone to treat because crp and esr were high. She also started me on plaquenil. Now before

blood test results help please
hi everyone I hope you don’t mind me asking for help again. I had a blood test request from my endocrinologist last January and was very disappointed he hadn’t requested T4 let alone T3. He’s only interested in TSH and my cholesterol. He also tells me to Jake my Levothyroxine just before a blood test

Brand of Thyroxine
I have been on Teva for years but want to go back to a previous brand that I used to be on but cannot remember the brand name. I want one that does not have too many fillers like Teva has. I am currently on 75mg daily. Any recommendations. Thanks

Ft3 295% 3 hours after dose, taking 95 t4 and 30 t3 in one go (Armour and Thybon T3)
Hey all, I am currently not splitting the above dose and I'm getting weird symptoms every single day. My ft3 is 90% of range in the morning, but it goes up to 295% after the dose. Ft4 is 54% after 3 hours and about 38% in the morning. Would splitting it help with hypo and hyper symptoms? I seem to be

Update from GP re blood in urine
Phone call first thing from Surgery. Please could you drop in a fresh urine sample. OK yes no problem, take it to GP surgery and nurse says, "will test now" Hm yes still very small traces of blood and also small evidence of Leuokocytes, could be due to UTI. Just check with GP, she says, GP

No prescription
Hi all. I've found a source of T3 online but it asks for a copy of the prescription OR doctors opinion or medical record. Obviously I don't have a prescription! Anyone know if a record showing and confirming I have hypothyroidism is enough? Thanks 😊

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

Never ending balanitis and lichen sclerosus
It all started about 6 years ago when I began to notice red spots on my penis and foreskin that appeared and disappeared occasionally. They only caused me discomfort when present, in the form of itching and a burning sensation. I consulted a dermatologist who told me to stop eating sweets and it would

Advice on labs, high RT3, high SBHG, low T
This is my first real post on this forum. I'd appreciate if experienced members could take a look at my labs and history and let me know what they think. I'm a 46-year-old male from Canada but living in France for the past 10 years. I've had deteriorating health issues for close to 5 years (likely longer

Thyroid Test Results
As a result of my GP pressurising me to reduce Levothyroxine intake I have had tests carried out privately. My weight justifies the dosage of 200mcg daily that is currently prescribed. (1.6mcg/kg) However this dosage results in incredibly low TSH levels. My GP seeks to raise TSH levels. Results are
