reminder pre testing please
so sorry I’ve searched and can’t find the recommendation for when to take last dose of NDT before blood tests. My test is at 09:20 … I usually take one at bedtime and one when I wake… shall I just miss the one when I wake? I’ve looked at pinned posts but can’t find the info… thanks so much

Mucin and Hypo symptoms
Recently, I stumbled upon information about mucin and hypothyroidism. This is another lightbulb moment for me while struggling with hypo symptoms. I tried (and failed) the pinch test and my legs and upper arms have the most visual signs of mucin. I have read posts where individuals that were on T3 found

Testing on NDT or T3 or Combo
There have recently been posts by people querying whether testing by endos after having food and medication is right or not. Obviously they are testing to see what the peak levels in our blood are at that given point of day but as some have rightly said, we won't be having that level constantly in our

Erfa 30mg starting questions (NDT)
Hello, I just started taking erfa 30mg for very low T3: -2.8 I tried previously T3 on its own, but I'm not sure if I was doing it correctly. I was only taking 10mg a day but each time I tried I was feeling very sick and highly strung (like too much coffee), therefore we decided to try a NDT. I'm just

NDT source
hi all, I have emailed admin for a list of endocrinologists who might prescribe NDT in the UK. And NDT suppliers. I used to live in Bangkok where Pharma used to produce Thiroyd. It was approx £10 for 1000 tablets. I moved back to the UK and ran out of NDT. The pandemic hit and Pharma stopped manufacturing

How do I take this further to get my liothyronine tablets?
I've been emailing back and forth to my surgery but they said the ICB have decided I can't have liothyronine tablets instead of the cheaper capsules.I had a prescription filled in December and started the Roma brand liothyronine capsules on 26th December 22. On the 27th December I came out in a rash

Can we purchase T4 in UK without a prescription?
Could somebody PM me please regarding the above. I have developed a few issues over the past 2 months since changing to Bitiron and think I would probably do better to take thyroxine separate with a small amount of liothyronine. I swopped from Thyroid S to Bitiron in October because it just didn't

Hello all! So after 8 weeks on 50mcg levo, 1 grain (60mg) NDT, and 10mcg T3 I have new results and I have to say I'm pretty surprised! I've always needed high T4 to feel well but I feel better than I have in ages on this dose... Dare I say, pretty much 'back to normal' ... Or at least what I think

Should I taper off NDT?
I have searched and read in this forum (and elsewhere), but cannot find much information on how to stop taking NDT altogether. In 2016 I started taking NDT - I didn't fall into the hypothyroid levels for THS/FT3/FT4 but had several symptoms since I was pregnant in 2006. (Test results below, before NDT

HELP! Symptoms getting much worse on NDT and I’m scared.
hello- Having being diagnosed as hypothyroid in November I’ve stated NDT (ERFA) as my first time on medication. I’ve been warned to potentially expect some unpleasant side effects but I’m really scared at the moment what is going on. I’ve been on it for 5 weeks and my symptoms have got MUCH worse.
