Endocrinologist in Belfast, Ulster Hospital?
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease in 2018 by Dr Wilson in Maynooth, been on NDT and have been battling with my GP in Belfast about what to do. He's now referred me to an endocrinologist at the Ulster Hospital. Anyone been there? Any experiences? I was prescribed Eltroxin, Thybon and LDN by Dr

NDT suppliers
Can some of you wonderfully kind people PM with details of where I can source NDT, bovine or porcine, from any country that will deliver to UK. I used to get Nature-Throid from the USA but they still do not have any in stock. TIA

Hello. I’m 49 years old and began to receive testosterone about a year ago, as my female testosterone was low. Approximately 2 months ago, I began having hot flashes and night sweats, so began a estrogen patch at 0.05 mg and Progesterone orally for 12 days out of the month. My concern is that I also

Hashimoto’s and NDT - How Do You Feel?
Hi Everyone, I am thinking I would like to try NDT but have heard from my integrated practitioner that not everyone with Hashimoto’s feels all that well on NDT. I am wondering if anyone has first hand experience? Thanks:)

Autopsies tell us the secrets of Parkinson's...
The brains of Parkinson's patients tell us some of the secrets of the disease at autopsy... "For History must be our deliverer, not only from the undue influence of other times, but from the undue influence of our own, from the tyranny of environment and the pressure of the air we breathe". Acton.

Anyone taking NDT with Levo or just NDT without Levo as combo Levo NDT didn't suit?
I'm adding more Levo (6.25 to my 12.5) to a lowered Armour (from 2.6 to 2.5 grains) currently and looking to learn from people's experiences. I am very sensitive to dose changes, have Hashis and central hypo of some sort (low tsh with low ft4 ft3). Thank you, Swampy

Conclusion of paper comparing response to FT4, FT4/FT3 combination and NDT
Though I sent this paper to TUK to archive, posters may not have seen its contents. So I've recorded the conclusion here. There seems to be little difference between the three dosage possibilities (NB most would be T4-tolerant anyway and would have no preference) as to effects on patients and Hashimoto

Navigating endometriosis naturally
Hello everybody, I am new on here and would like to share my experience with you. I was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis 5 years ago at 23 years old, followed by surgery. I'd spent years going round in circles with doctors on meds that make everything worse. The medicines prescribed numb your connection

Could someone please explain why they gave up Levo and take Lio or NDT instead please?
Hallo all If thyroid blood results look pretty damn good (as mine do below) on Levo, this means I should be feeling at least better? Symptoms alleviated? It’s my walking and increasing stiffness in legs and shoulders which is the issue. For instance, yesterday evening, walking (trudging) felt SO difficult

Help needed in long term effects of RAI for Graves Disease, long term use of Levothyroxine and how I go about transitioning to NDT.
Hi all, To give a brief history - I was diagnosed with Graves’ Disease in 2000. After 6 years on Propananol, Levothyroxine and Carbimazole, I had Radio Active Iodine in 2006 and have been on varying doses of Levothyroxine ever since. During my routine yearly blood test at the end of 2019 it was detected

Finally receiving treatment - what to expect?
I'm a 36 year old male and I've posted on here a couple of times recently trying to make sense of various blood tests and symptoms. Having had strong suspicions of hypothyroidism for the last 3 years, I've finally found a specialist prepared to offer treat / medicate me. My latest blood tests results

Thyroid and/or PMDD?
Dear everyone, I hope you can help as I’m in a pretty desperate place. I have had under active thyroid since I was in my early teens and for the last few years (I’m in my mid-thirties) have been taking natural desiccated thyroid, which has been a true life-saver as I was very poorly for years on levothyroxine

Sub-Potency NDT
There has been another recall of certain lots of NP Thyroid by Acella in the U.S. How quickly would the sub-potency be noticed with increased hypothyroid symptoms?

Non conversion of T4 to T3 and low ferritin - Do I stick with NHS in the hope they give me T3.. will it work even if they do give it to me?
I have low thyroid where I am not converting enough T4 Levothyroxine into T3 and am waiting to go to my local hospital to see an Endo but am not feeling confident regarding the willingness to even acknowledge T4 to T3 conversion by NHS Endos and of course what medication they will give me and what knowledge
