UK or US Functional doctors that prescribe NDT
Hi everyone, I was wondering if any of you knows of any functional doctors specialised in the Thyroid in the UK or US. Since they work with clients all over the world, it probably doesn't matter where they are based. I bet in the US where they have more competition, some have more competitive prices

NDT and Levo combination
I would like to take some
NDT
so I don't have to take so much levo. Because of t3 in
ndt
. Pure t3 is not available to me, only
ndt
and Levo . Would it be best to take
ndt
in the morning and Levo in the afternoon? Or it is possible to take them together in the morning?.

NDT dosing confusion, how to make it work?
Hi All, Trying to understand the
NDT
dosing and if it's working for me. They say 1 grain of Erfa is about 100 McG of levo. However, 1 grain only gives you 38 McG of T4. So if I was on 88 McG of levo before
NDT
and I now take 1 grain of
NDT
instead, I only get 38 McG of T4?

Possible histamine related allergy NDT
Hello A week ago had my prescription for
NDT
doubled from 1/4 grain to 1/2 grain twice a day. I've been on 1/4 grain for 6 months. In the last month I have noticed my anti-histamine reactions have become quite bad. Does anyone know if
NDT
is high histamine?

BP and HR on Dose Increase
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.

Feeling very unwell - do my blood results explain why? What to do next?
Hi Mid August My
NDT
was increased from 2.5 to 3 grains. By the last week in September I began to feel what I describe as a 'bit off' , these feelings come and go. My partner had covid , I tested negative a couple of times.

T3 / NDT
Hi - I'm 39 and have had hashimotos / under active thyroid for 10+ years. I have suffered from 3 miscarriages recently + had 2 poor quality / outcome IVF egg retrievals. I'm on 100mg of levothyroxine, TSH is in range (around 2) but T3 is really at the bottom of the range. I don't think I'm converting

Still can’t lose weight - on NDT for 3 months
Up until now my TSH has bounced around from 3 - 11 (I did a lot of blood tests prior to starting
NDT
around Dec 21, 2023.) My antibodies are consistently very low (not Hashi’s). TSH 0.01 Free T3 6.1 Free T4 18.8 these numbers look great but I’m not feeling great.

Is it the NDT (Thailand)
Have taken 2.5 grains
NDT
for many years. Recently started suffering from burning feet pads and tongue swelling late evening. Have noticed that the batch number for the
NDT
I currently take was hi-lighted for some reason on a facebook page but cannot find the page and reason why.

NDT Named Patient basis
I'm just seeking an update: Is
NDT
still only prescribed on NHS on a named patient basis? I was listening to the interview of Lynn last year and there was talk this may no longer be required. Am thinking of moving GP surgeries as its barely functioning but don't want to jinx my NHS
NDT
script.
