FDG elements of PSMA scan
I had a FDG scan a few days ago . At the heart of my confusion is the function of FDG in giving a positive outcome to Pluvicto infusions. Is it a good thing to have lots of 'FDG Avid' showing up, or do you want those aspects of the scan to be as hidden as possible (so that the PSMA -Avid cells can be

Do I need to go back on Thyroxine?
Just a heads up folks, this is going to be a long post! I have been off thyroxine for just over a year now, I will attempt to explain in a long winded way how this came about. I was put on thyroxine when I went into menopause which happened before I was 50 (I am now 62). I have always been on 50mg,

Viatris 5mcg liothyronine feedback please from NHS
Hi. Has anyone taken Viatris 5mcg liothyronine T3. Or can you compare with other liothyronine 5mcg brands. My sister has just been prescribed T3 alongside her usual levothyroxine T4 medication privately as her latest T3 results was low (24%) But a huge surprise was that her NHS GP gave her a liothyronine

Swallowing difficulty, have to chew meds.
About a year ago, I began getting my thyroid meds stuck in my throat. All my other meds, vits and minerals, being much larger, seem to go down ok, as they seem to have sufficient "weight" behind them. My magnesium capsule is the size of a suppository 🤣 and I can swallow [i]that[/i] without a problem

Cortisol test
Result of morning cortisal test was 131 which is rubbish (range 102-535) and explains why I feel exhausted some days. Have been on 3mg for several weeks. Looks like it’s a Synacthen test next. Thanks PMRpro for the info on that. Is the experience ok anyone out there who’s had one?

Bronchiecstasis and asthma
been suffering, flare up with antibiotics and steroids since beginning of December. In desperation I rang GP this morning to get form for a sputum test at hospital. Was told I have to speak with a doctor and couldn’t have that appointment until Thursday! Have now left a message with Consultant’s secretary

help with results
please could someone advise on my results. I’m currently taking 100 Levo and 5 lio. I’m taking a private prescription for the lio but am attempting an IFR with the NHS as I don’t think 5 is enough and it’s too expensive for me to buy. My weight continues to go up and I’m convinced it’s because my medication

Magnesium as ozonated magnesium oxides
Hello again. Slow Dragon said that there needs to be 4 hours after T4 or T3 before taking Magnesium. I take magnesium from ozonated magnesium oxides with 3% potassium before bed to help with any constipation that still lingers a little. I asked the company about their product and they said they don't

Headaches and nightmares on T3 monotherapy
Hi, does anyone else get headaches and nightmares on T3 monotherapy? I have read the side effects leaflet and it states that 'headache' and 'insomnia' are two of the side effects; since I have been on T3 only I often wake up in the night and have a very light sleep compared to what I am used to, then

T3 toxicity
Hi, I wonder if anyone could tell me whether it’s possible for T3 to simply ‘not agree’ with me? I’ve posted here before and got lots of great advice. My numbers previously showed me mid range through all the thyroid numbers but not converting well to T3. I was advised to take selenium and zinc

Crash after Covid?
I’m really struggling to balance my body back out after having Covid and so so puzzled. Not sure why this has happened or where to go with it next. Has anyone had a really bad crash after Covid? I’m diagnosed pernicious anaemia and hypothyroid Hashimotos. I had been in the same routine with supplements

Once a day T3ers only
Do you still do your blood tests in the same way as those on divided doses or T4? I can't think of any better way unless someone has any ideas? I am taking all my T3 on waking so got earliest appointment I could ( testing other stuff too so can't do my own finger prick test) and that is 10am Mon, sadly
