NDT advice please
I read on here about people being on
NDT
, I’ve never tried it or been offered it. How do you go about trying to get a trial? It’s obviously an Endo route but are they even receptive to this as an option if you ask?

Sources of T3/NDT
Hi everyone, Following my recent test results in which my T3 levels had dropped (with no change of dose) and meeting with an endocrinologist who insisted everything was 'optimal' (although only just within range) I would like to explore either adding T3 or switching to
NDT
.

Looking for a doctor / functional medicine
Hi everyone, I am on 4 grains
NDT
and 20 mcg T3 per day. My FT4 is just beneath normal range, FT3 upper third of range and suppressed TSH. My endo is supportive but says he has never seen anyone on so much thyroid replacement!

Can I eat 6 hours before thyroid test if I don't care about T4?
My T4 results have been super low since I switched to
NDT
about 9 months ago and I don't think the thyroid blood test accurately gauges T4 if you're on
NDT
anyway? Is that correct?

NDT Armour dosing
I’m 2.5 months into Armour treatment, now adjusting to 1/2 grain at 6am and 1/4 grain an hour after lunch. Insomnia is one of my worse symptoms, I take 20mg of amitriptyline which has worked well for the last year, I sleep 12-7am. Since the latest Armour dose increase my insomnia has worsened and I

Thyroid medication update
So presently taking 60
NDT
and 25 t4 synthroid. I couldn't tolerate 90
ndt
so my doctor gave me 25 t4 as a slower release and doesn't hit as hard as
ndt
. So it seems this addition of t4 has helped me.

ndt am/pm
Hi, I am starting my
ndt
with a 1/4 of a grain am and pm on a slow build. I wanted to know if
ndt
is best taken both morning and afternoon or can I take just morning? Fitting it around an Emory stomach in the afternoon is a bit tricky.

Very high blood pressure
My hashimoto was treated with Levothyroxine until 2020 when I saw a functional medical practitioner GP and am now taking Armour thyroid
NDT
.. I have read that Hashimoto can be associated with high blood pressure but in any event I would like to get off the meds or at least reduce them.

NDT, bedtime. Heart ectopics.
I’m been trying to get rid of them for many years. 6 months ago, I started taking
NDT
instead of Euthyrox and after three days the ectopics almost disappeared. But! Now they have returned after almost 6 months of being on 60mg of
NDT
.

Covid & dosing
My temperature is high & I'm taking paracetamol for that.My question is, should I alter my T4/
NDT
dose? I haven't been ill at all since I started on thyroid meds in 2015. I wondered if I should increase, decrease or stay the same? Thanks

Thyroid s and high cortisol
Question - on
ndt
1 grain my cortisol saliva test at 8-12 and 16 are double then they should be , 2 or even 3 times higher at 16.00 after my
ndt
dose kicks in. Why would it be? I’ve read that low cortisol hinders absorption of
ndt
but I’ve not read that
ndt
can cause high cortisol levels.

Out of Date Erfa NDT
Hello, Can anyone tell me if they have taken out-of-date
NDT
? I have read that it may just be a little less effective but not harmful. Is this the case?

Amiriodone & NDT update
So I was put on Amiodarone post heart surgery 3 1/2 weeks ago. I thought it was a three week course but it's not. Now on 200mg per day for the next few months . And yes I think it's messing my thyroid hormones up. I did protest over taking it...due to its high iodine content and contrary indications.

where to source NDT?
Hi all, just wondering if any of you could advise me as where I could source
NDT
? I’ve been having Armour from America but the last delivery I was clobbered with a customs charge which was a bit painful, so don’t want to risk that again if there is an alternative way to purchase them.
