Test results and advice
I am wondering if you can help. Recently had to change GP due to house move and the one I see has been very good t an extent. Today heard from a different one who was no use. I had requested certain blood tests but it seems these are the only ones they did.....managed to get a copy. Serum free T4 level

My NDT source does not exist any more :( Advice please
Dear all... I so appreciate the help of this forum. After some trial and error I have settled with 1.5 grains of NDT and feeling fantastic... Now, just noticed the the source of my NDT does not seem to exist anymore... Anybody knows where I can reliably get my next NDT? I use TR man but anything would

Help with result please - endo treating by TSH only!
Hi there. Please can someone help with these results. My endo keeps dropping my T3 and wanting me to add more T4 via NDT. He originally suggested I add in 50mcg levo even though he said in his letter that I had previously not tolerated it, hence the NDT. I note from my medical records that I was diagnosed

Help Breaking Pattern
Hi all, I have a lot of symptoms, some of which I have all day, but others follow a distinct pattern. Wondering if anybody has some thoughts on breaking this pattern. 1) Wake up around 6 (take first 30mg NDT) with anxiety, shakiness, weak legs, trouble with vision (dry gritty eyes, slow to focus)

No Hashi’s antibodies but worth getting an ultrasound?
Hello, would appreciate any advice about checking for Hashis. I’ve just started getting proper treatment for my thyroid (started NDT two weeks ago) and for completeness wanted to check for Hashis. So far my blood tests haven’t indicated I have it (see photo below from March 8). I’ve read on other blogs

Doing blood test at 8.10am, when do I take NDT (ERFA) to get best result?
I am currently on a NDT (ERFA) trial with a Private Endo and need to do a Medichecks Advanced Thyroid test to see how the trial is going. I am currently taking 1 grain 7.30am and a half grain at 12.00 midday. I have read on here that it is important to adjust timing of meds sometimes to get the best

Metaphor for examination of a SCH patient. The fallacy of using statistics to diagnose.
Sorry, a bit of a Moses moment. It's the lockdown fever. You might get somwhere with a doctor with this metaphor on subclinical hypothyroidism. Imagine a carpark for say 1000 cars. Assume the owners of the carpark have set a 2 hour time limit for staying. They don’t want to use electronic control and

Testing For TRAb
Yesterday I had input from Radd suggesting I get a TRAb test done - can you please tell me where I can get this done as it isn't clear. It was also suggested that I be wary of NDT given my existing problems - I did actually increase my Armour from 2 grains to 2 1/4 grains as per suggestion from Grey

An unusual one!
Hey guys! I hope you are all keeping safe and well. This one is just an update rather than a question, but an unusual one for sure. I’ve only ever tried to reduce my levothyroxcine twice in the past. Once when I started NDT and once when I started T3. I reduced by 25mcg I think from 125mcg and felt

How long does it take for T3 (NDT) to be eliminated from the body?
Hi all hope everyone is well on this glorious day? Don't think there will be many of us using our devices today. How long does it take for T3, NDT form, to leave the body? •Thyroidectomy 1992 onwards levo treatment. •Since 2020 attempted a few trials of NDT. •December 2020 thyroid results on 75mcg levo
