Anything I should be doing for auto-immune hypothyroid?
Hi there, I was recently diagnosed by hypothyroidism as GP blood test showed a high TSH level (14.69) along with the symptoms I was experiencing (general tiredness, terrible immune system and weekly cold sores). They didn't do any other tests, and I was keen to also get a baseline on my T3/T4 levels,

Hypothyroidism and levothyroxine treatment only inadequate?
I had a bad experience on levothyroxine only. I am now on T3 but not optimal yet although much better than I was on the levo.I had to go to hospital appointment regarding my dupuytrens contracture, and the doctor, who was going through my medications list, asked why I wasn't on levothyroxine. I told

My TSH level is under the range.
I value this knowledgeable forum very much, thank you for all your help. I had my blood tested last week. The draw was at 9.30am and my last Levo medication was taken the previous morning at 8am. I am currently on 125 mg Levothyroxine which I take on waking up and only drink water for the first 2

Advice on latest results please
I’ve had a bumpy ride over the past 4 years, some of it self-induced by being impatient. When I started testing my thyroid everything was low inc tsh and cortisol, in retrospect I suppose my body was just trying to survive on drippings. I was never sure I had a thyroid problem as my tsh was always

is it possible…
is it possible for t4 and tsh levels to change dramatically in 6 weeks? Six weeks ago I did a medichecks test and my tsh was just within the bottom of the range and my t4 and t3 roughly the same as when I tested before…slight drop. Generally, I’ve felt ok for a few months (been on 75mcg, taken regularly

Getting Desperate!
First time poster here! I'm from North Mississippi and I'm needing advice. I have had RLS since 2010 and once I finally got the meds right after diagnosis, I have had very little issues with it. I first tried gabapentin with no relief, then Mirapex with no relief, then Requip worked like a charm.

Sourcing T3
Hi all. Has anyone here tried ordering, or have any information on, a source for T3? I looked up this site and was concerned when I didn't find information I felt confident with. I belong to an exotic cat forum also and people are always posting about being scammed, so I try to get verification before

I read that it isn't advisable to take thyroxine with suppressed TSH and T4!
Hi, I'm wondering if anyone is taking thyroxine with a suppressed T4 (6.6 range 08-19.1) and TSH 0.01 I read on google, it's not advisable if levels above, are suppressed or you have adrenal fatigue, which I have suffered from in the past. My main medication is 40 mcg of T3 which makes a big difference
