Vegetarian is a life choice not a medical need!!!
I have been getting
liothyronine
on a nhs prescription for many years. I could not find a british variety that I could tolerate that was also vegetarian friendly. My gp was very helpful and agreed that I could have a special order prescription.

Abnormally high vitamin D without supplementing.
Bloods done after leaving 18hrs gap since last medications Levothyroxine T4 and
Liothyronine
T3. Once meds taken T4 and T3 numbers will rise. I’ve always had good vitamin D results even in the winter of about 90 (50-150) and 130 in summer months. I get it checked every 3 months routinely.

I think I might have trouble converting my T4 medication (levothyroxine) to T3 and am considering supplimenting with
Liothyronine
.

Roma – Liothyronine Sodium Hard Capsules
As of yesterday, a new
liothyronine
product has become available in the UK. I do not know which companies are distributing the product. I do not know the cost - they are not in the current NHS Tariff - we expect the February 2022 Tariff in the last few days of January.

Chemist 4 u and t3 private prescription
I have finally got a private prescription for
Liothyronine
. Has anyone used Chemist 4 U to fulfill the prescription. It's a good price, but looks like I must set up a direct debit and send the prescription off. Does anyone use them at all? Looking for some advice. Thanks for reading xx

Finally good news on desiccated thyroid (my doctor thinks I might be able to get it on NHS)
share something positive for once: by accident instead of my usual endocrinologist another consultant in the local NHS hospital called me for the update appointment: I was honest about not responding to the last prescription after 6 weeks (my t3 was lower than before starting medication, even on 49mcg

Light headed, pins and needles, headaches
I’m currently on 75mcg/100mcg Levothyroxene on alternate days, plus 15mcg
Liothyronine
(split as 10mcg am, 5mcg around 3pm). In addition I take HRT - oestrogen (topical), progesterone and testosterone. I am under a ‘menopause specialist’ for those meds. GP ran my annual thyroid bloods.

T3 starting dose and when to take it?
Hi all, I have finally been able (through my own endeavours) to source
liothyronine
) Having read previous posts I understand it is best to start on a low dose split throughout the day, I would appreciate any advice on how to do this please. Can I take them with thyroxine?

Many of us wonder why our symptoms aren't relieved when first beginning thyroid hormone replacements, i.e. levothyroxine (T4) for instance that should convert to
liothyronine
(T3) which is the 'active' thyroid hormone needed in our millions of T3 receptor cells.

Current Thyroid test results
I was on 50mcg of Levo and 20mcg of
Liothyronine
. I have since increased levo to 75 and dropped Lio to 15. I'm still feeling awful and hypo and wonder if Im ever going to get where I need to be. In the comments that came with the results they said that I'm subclinical hyper. How is this?

An actual apology from a GP!!!!!! Thyroid patient fights back.
I landed up on T3 (
Liothyronine
), and later Armour. So, my experience of thyroxine led me to believe that it was no good for me, but as there seemed to be no option this year, I requested some thyroxine from my GP to try replacing half of my 2 grain dose of Thyroid-S.

Starting Liothyronine - any advice?
I finally saw the endo today. I am so relieved that she is willing to add some T3 to my schedule. She prescribed 5 mcg and told me to take it with my levothyroxine in the morning. Any advice on what to be aware of as I add this in? Also, to follow up from an earlier post of mine, she said it actually

Confusing results

liothyronine
, same manufacturer.

What to do about T3 anxiety?
Started with 25mcg Synthroid, over a number of years settled on 80 mcg Levothyroxine compounded SR with 12 mcg
Liothyronine
. Had thyroid lobectomy in November 2021 and my new endocrinologist switched me to 88 mcg Tirosint and 5 mcg Cytomel.
