Negative side effects of NDT/T3 with severe M.E. + Perimenopause
Has anyone else with severe M.E. found that beginning NDT & T3 triggered inflammation & perimenopause symptoms? I'm late 40's with severe M.E. (predominantly bedbound) + comorbidities, plus a recent Hashi's diagnosis. After 3 months of slowly increasing NDT -& adding in T3- my resting heart rate

NDT and hospital
Hi. I'm just wondering how people on NDT have managed their treatment whilst in hospital. I am probably going to have to be in hospital and I am not going to take thyroxine instead of Thyroid S as thyroxine causes me all sorts of problems especially with my heart. How have people got on in hospital when

Headaches before next dose ?
Hashi's person / 56 years old. Quick question please: Does anyone experience headaches before their next NDT daily dose? I take one around 7am-8am & one around 7-9pm. For example: I seem to have headaches an hour or so before my next dose & then the headache goes around 2.5-3.0 hours after my NDT

Hypo w/ High Ferritin
I've been Hypo and have had high Ferritin for years and to date, there is no answer as to whether the two are connected and if so, which is primary and or secondary. I take 3 grains of NDT (recently increased from 2 grains) because I did not do well on T4 only treatment. At 2 grains I was still symptomatic

SUCCESS! Thank you everyone!
I just wanted to say a massive thank you for the support I received from the numerous lovely people on this forum. I had been self medicating for years after struggling to get treated on the NHS and found a new private thyroid doctor off the list. A few of you voiced concerns that she had asked me to

dear all. I think I’ve been hypo for many years, but only reached the desired disease stage about 5 years ago when the docs finally put me on Levo. They never mentioned hashimotos or autoimmune disease. It took a naturopath in USA to put me on the right path. I didn’t fair well on Levo at all, and wasn

Would like to hear any thoughts on my latest test results
Hi - Long time, no post! So I still don't feel like I've found the right balance on T4/T3 and I wanted to have a chat about it. I am currently taking 100 mcg T4 + 2 x 5 mcg T3 (which more often than not, is only 1 x 5 mcg in the morning as I invariably forget the second one). TSH 0.19 (0.27
