Doctors UK who treat Hypothyroidism with NDT/Armour pref in sussex aread
Hi in my 50's, have been hypo for 15 years (and monitor my B12, Vit D etc to make sure they are the right levels, not just 'normal' low range). Also worked with naturopaths, acupuncutrists etc over the years. I had a friend in US who thrived on Armour, and as I am UK based, in Sussex, i am really

A (failed?) attempt to stop thyroid medicines.
I switched for the last two years to
NDT
(Thyroid-S) and I was doing much better. I've lost some weight (7kg) and I had more energy. But still I had other issues (onycholysis, sweating).

Supply issues of NDT
I have been taking
NDT

private endos in London / Bristol willing to prescribe NDT and T3
Both my GP and private endo refuse to precribe
NDT
or T3. I have found great private GP who had prescribed me
NDT
but I’d like to also see another endo who is less dogmatic than the last (don’t anyone go and see [ doctor name redacted ] - dismissive and unhelpful).

Pharmacokinetics of NDT uptake
T4-
NDT
half-life doesn't seem to differ from T4 alone.

NDT Dosage
I'm just wondering what a usual final dose of
NDT
is. I know Levo often uses bodyweight as a dosage guide but what about
NDT
?

Have you obtained thyroid medication without prescription? Admin need your feedback please. Both good and bad!
If you have recently (in the last six months), purchased your own thyroid medication (T4, T3,
etc) without prescription, please message me with information on your source, what you ordered and whether or not you received what you paid for etc.

Seeking advice on test results, Metavive and suggested next steps
for medication/supplements/
NDT
but honestly find the various options mind-boggling. Hence why I started with metavive, due to its availability/ease of ordering.

Stopping NDT cold turkey - how long till I experience symptoms?
Initially I thought the
NDT
worked but I also started testosterone therapy at a similar time and maybe it was this that really gave me relief - I need to know for sure I guess. Been off
NDT
for 2 weeks now and feel fine so far - how long for symptoms to really hit if they do?

Advice on blood test result
Hi, After receiving a result of the CC gene (rs225014) on a Dio2 test and getting nowhere via my GP and a paper referral to an endocrinologist I decided to use
ndt
(thyroid s) on 16/12/22. Started on half grain for ten days, then one grain for 28 days and then one and a half grains.

Testing on NDT or T3 or Combo
I had never heard of this before until about a year ago even though I've been on
NDT
for almost 30 years but I had to do this for a private endo who is on the TUK list and he immediately told me to reduce my medication based on this alone (my T3 was 8.2).

Latest blood results and thyroid scan
Can you share your experience with
NDT
? I have been told will start with 1/4 grain. Should have my report back by next week to have my prescription. Thank you in advance and sorry for long post.

Light sensitivity - hypo or hyper? Taking Armour.
My ft3 was 63% and ft4 39% on Sunday (24 hours after taking my dose of
NDT
) I think I have it on a higher dose, but not 100% certain. Does anyone have it or had it? Were you hypo or hyper? Thank you x

Can we purchase T4 in UK without a prescription?
I swopped from Thyroid S to Bitiron in October because it just didn't suit me and cannot afford Armour or any of the other well known
NDT
which I haven't had problems with previously.

NDT plus T3
My question is should I be lowering my
NDT
by 1/2 grain and adding 6.25mcg of T3. Although I felt well on my previous dose my FT4 was always near the top range. Someone on the site called Jim stated that a high FT4 is not good, so I wondered if adding this may help in the future.

NDT medication
Hello All, I don't want to break any forum rules or guidance. I am beginning to feel so desperate that I will obtain some Armour/thyroid s to try and get myself sorted out since the NHS medical route is in a dead end. If possible could anyone with experience of self medicating/buying this sort of medication

HCI & D3 timing
I read on this community to take Vit D3 4hrs after
NDT
. I just started HCI and want to know, if there is a time frame to take the HCI in relation to the D3 Because it is fat soluble I, only, take my D3 1x/wk (week's worth) so it will be an issue once a week.

NDT symptoms - heavy anckles
I’m experimenting with
ndt
and am at 1-1.25 grain of s-thyroid and have a constant swollen feeling of ankles - like heavy bits the weirdest thing. My temps and pulse has gone up but this is bugging me. Any insights? Thanks.
