Am I over medicated?
My Free T4 always comes up low. I understand from this grp that this means I am over medicated. I do not feel over medicated, but am I doing myself long term damage? I currently take 45mgs of NDT & an extra 12.5mcgs of T3. (In one dose) each day. (& supplements) Thanks in advance.

Needing some input after gastroscope
Hi all: So I had a gastroscope yesterday and today I’m riddled with extreme fatigue. I’ve had a gastroscope before and never experienced such fatigue. The other times there was an anesthesiologist that gave me drugs to put me to sleep. This time an egotistic doctor informed me the procedure would be

Ferritin
I have just had an Advanced Thyroid Test from Medichecks. My Free T4 and Free T3 may look good but I have been getting a return of my symptoms so have upped my NDT from 2.5 grains to 3. It is my ferritin which I am not happy about. Is it too low? I eat very little red meat which is probably why it is

Searching fot NDT (natural thyroid hormone)
Hello I have been on NDT for over 20 years now, originally Canadian version then when they stop manufacturing, got it through compound pharmacy (various experiences, some better that others), lately I am on Armour.

thyroid s supplier
I’ve been on t3 for 18 months (non converter). Had severe hair loss & itchy eyes. Wasn’t sure why - thot menopause! After everyone talking about TR NDT I was going through nhs files & found 3 months worth (at time my adrenals were smashed so thought non working TR was dodgy stopped taking it). In 6

In hospital take ndt
Hi. Just a question regarding hospital stays and taking unprescribed ndt. I am probably going to be in hospital soon and am wondering what the heck to do about my thyroid s. I ended up in A&E with chest pains and was put on a ward where they took my antibiotics off me and put them in a locked cupboard

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

Any thoughts please on why erfa is the only thyroid medication than helps in my case, all others cause relentless migraines
Initially I started levothyroxin that was horrendous at the time with awful adrenal causing a whole load of unpleasant symptoms, t3 thybon brand I have also tried without success. I started on NDT around 15 years ago but had to build up slowly over a few years as it caused wired & tired symptoms causing

Why does Levothyroxine cause weight gain if it treats hypothyroidism, weight gain being a hypo symptom?
Shouldn't it help rectify hypo symptoms not make them worse? This baffles me! I wish I could revert back to Levothyroxine and use it together with T3 as NDT is extortionately priced, and not working brilliantly for me anymore, however, weight gain is my biggest fear, and I read so much about this on
