How quickly does tsh rise?
I stopped NDT for 5 days prior to my TFTs, because I was supposed to be trialling LT4 and basically didn’t stick to it as I felt so poorly. Came back with T4 and T3 in lowest part of range, and TSH almost completely suppressed. Oops. Really thought there’d be a tiny rise in TSH. I don’t think I

Raised liver enzyme - ALP (alkaline phosphatase))
Hello - I recently had a full blood screening test as I’m part of a covid vaccine trial. It showed my ALP was slightly raised. The test was repeated a week later and was slightly more raised. I now have to have another test in 2 weeks time at my GP surgery. The GP mentioned it could be related to a lack

Why Do I Need Such A Massive Dose Of T3?
I started taking T3, T4 and NDT meds around 2 years ago - the dosage that keeps me functional is 80mcg of T3 (but 100mcg is better), and 3 capsules of 300mg ThyroGold (equivalent to around 4-5 grains of NDT I've been told). When I try and switch it out for 200mcg of T4 or 100mcg of T4, the relief of

Can I take levothyroxine at the same time with NDT?
My endochronologist told me to reduce my NDT and add 25 mg of levothyroxine. Can I take NDT and levothyroxine at the same time? Before, I usually took NDT twice a day. I stopped NDT 12 hours before my blood test. I don't know why my TSH is a little bit higher now- before it was 0.15-0.16.My FT4 and

Opinion on bloods please
Gp rang beginning of November because of a letter from a Consultant re the 05 TSH result he had done. Panic ensues when they see that and it's blamed for all that is wrong with me, and believe me that is a lot. He knew nothing about NDT, naturally and not a lot about the thyroid from listening to him

Probiotics taken before or after breakfast and NDT ?
I’ve been taking my probiotic mid day after lunch with a garlic supplement for balancing out candida yeast. I am just curious can I take these both first thing in the morning before Armour Thyriod ? Or should I wait an hour to pass to take them before breakfast ?

What combo of meds ??

My values on ndt
I do not understand why my ft4 is below the limit. Ft3 is good but ft4 not. I gained weight, my hair is dry and my voice is hoarse but I have more energy than on levo+T3 and my mood is ok. I can't find a balance. if I add some levo, joint pain, fatigue and anxiety begin. I'm tired of playing with

I feel the need to vent my anger
Last November I was unable to obtain the NDT that had kept me well for nearly 5 years and had no choice but to turn to my GP. He referred me to an endocrinologist as when given levo 5 years ago I was very ill. The endo prescribed levo and T3 after being left untreated for a month waiting for my appt.

"You will be fine!"
This is just a rant as I am now sitting fuming and I need to get it off my chest, so sorry! I have been on NDT for quite a few years and have been well on it. My latest order failed to arrive, so I had no choice but to dig into some rather elderly Thyroxine. All the old symptoms are coming back, and
