please could I have feedback on my results?
I’ve been on
NDT
under a private consultant now since March and these are my latest results. I feel like my symptoms are mostly managed with the exception of sleep. Do you think I need a 1/4 grain increase or should I just leave be?

T3 side effects
Here’s my latest thyroid results taken on 4.1.24 Serum TSH 0.04 mlU/L (0.27-4.2) below low reference limit Serum free T4 13.8 pmol/L (12.0-22.0) Serum free triiodothyronine 4.8pmol/L (3.1-6.8) As my mum suffered with Hashimotos and took
NDT
(overmedicated) and she had undiagnosed arrythmia she passed

Just had hysterectomy due to prolapsed bladder and think it's come back due to severe constipation.
I have also ran out of
ndt
again for about the fifth time due to it being so expensive and my tsh was really high about 6.5 when I had blood test for my pre op. It was also high the previous time as I had ran out then as well.

Used Stamps
Therefore, if you decide to visit one of the doctors or practitioners, we would advise that you research them thoroughly to make sure that they are the doctors that you need i.e. do they prescribe T3 or
NDT
or do they deal with adrenal issues?

spatone iron supplement.
However, I am aware that I must NOT take it with the
NDT
and that it needs to be taken on an empty stomach. As I’m taking the
NDT
at 9am and 3pm in divided doses, any ideas regarding when is the best time to take the Spatone? I’m thinking maybe 5.30pm before my evening meal?

Ndt prescription?Prevent metabolic syndrome? Izabella wentz? diet?
I read that metabolic syndrome is associated with autoimmune diseases (so also hashimoto), so I decided to prevent it (I found a book on the spot, let's hope it's good). [u]Has anyone else successfully followed izabella wentz's advice? [/u]I really liked her advice and put it into practice right away

BIT CONFUSED AND WHAT TO DO?
Take a higher dose of
NDT
or ask for some T3 only medication to bump up my T3. I pay privately for my
NDT
. I’m scared to see my dr as at my last appt he was happy for me to be on 90mgs of
NDT
but I felt a terrible dip in my energy levels and again I could feel the
NDT
filling up my body.

Anyone else feel the same?
Each time I have to go through the process of buying
NDT
I go through a series of emotions.1. Angry that in this day and age I have to buy meds from Thailand 2. That the NHS won't let us have the meds we need 3. The cost if these meds, how will I afford once I've retired 4.

Very low TSH
Hi folks,I was on
NDT
and my Tsh went down to less than 0.005 from 3.59 Is this normal? Worrying? My GP told me to come off meds immediately.

Porcine supplements or NDT ?
I’ve just bought some 40mg porcine thyroid tablets but only because I thought they were
NDT
. I now understand that they aren’t. Can anyone tell me which is the best option and where I could buy
NDT
. Thanks in advance.

Confused about latest blood tests - why are FT4 and FT3 rising, but I still feel awful and I'm undiagnosed and not on any meds?
Prior to this latest bood test, I thought a trial of
NDT
might be the answer to my symptoms. So I went into the Dr's appointment armed with my research, ready to (politely, but firmly) argue my case and request a trial of
NDT
.

Has anyone whose tried T3 and NDT felt better on just T4?
But I now wonder if T3/
NDT
just isn’t right for me.
