Vencamil (was Aristo T4) now more expensive
This is for information as much as anything. I've been settled on Aristo T4 for a good 18 months. Pharmacist this week said they can't get them so I pointed out they have rebranded to 'Vencamil' , after looking they agreed that was the case and said to get GP to change prescription to reflect that. GP

private Endo
Hi everyone. Like many on here my T3 low, my GP quite ignorant and an NHS Endo I saw last year (just so GP would give an increase in Levo!) discharged me after first visit before I’d even had the blood tests she recommended! Can anyone PM me and recommend a knowledgeable Endo who prescribes T3? I live

I have been on 75mcg for a number of years since having a lobectomy and isthmusectomy in 2015. This was reduced from 100mcg in 2019 following TFT (TSH 0.02) even though I felt well on this dose. I have been feeling very fatigued and achy for a while and had a blood test by the GP in January 2023 for

T3 only treatment experiences please
Hello, Looking to hear from anyone that has tried t3 only treatment? It’s been suggested I try it. I have PCOS which can cause thyroid hormone resistance which maybe explains why T4 at any dose causes awful issues and my t3 doesn’t budge at all. My t4 before starting levo has always been fine &

I'm on NDT. It's taken almost a year to get to this point, but last week I moved up to 2+3/4 Grains of NDT (Armour) from 2.5 grains after a blood test. TSH - 3.78 FT4 - 14.4 Range 12-22, (24%) FT3 - 4.7 Range 3.1-6.3, (50%) For the first time the increase has not caused me problems. I usually suffer

Teva levothyroxine solution, any positive results for anyone?
Hi Has anyone tried Teva levothyroxine solution, and had positive results compared to taking any levothyroxine tablets? To cut a very long story short, the 75 mcg Wockhardt tablets I take are causing terrible pressure all over body and excruiciating burning through top of my head. So bad I collapse.

Advice please, re sourcing/dose T3 in England, UK
I've a long history of being on Levothyroxine, for Hypothyroidism. I only feel well when on 150mcgs, most likely due to poor conversion T4 to T3, which I've more recently discovered, after private blood tests and advice on here. So, a few months ago, GP decided my T4 levels were much too high to accept
