Need some help
Before this was 16 years of being on Levo, then a certain of
NDT
that was brilliant but since then my endo doesnt seem to know what to do with me so I came off
NDT
. I have also tried Armor, again it was making me feel worst.

Transitioning from NDT to T3 (slowly) - anyone done this? Or combines NDT with t3?
Hello there, After many years unsuccessfully on Levo, then
NDT
,
NDT
+T4, I'm trying
NDT
and T3...and it's tricky. My timing might be incorrect, I take now 3 daily doses and I'm feeling overmedicated in the afternoon (tight chest, dizzy, weird energy, hunger, sweaty feet, blurry vision etc.).

Chewing Thyroid-S before swallowing?
Is it really necessary to chew
NDT
? I've done it most of my life but recently started swallowing it whole because of my teeth. I take my thyroid medicine at around 4 am and go back to sleep sometimes for several hours. I've had a lot of cavities and dry mouth for the last year and a half.

Getting the NDT dosage right
But despite this, I feel better on
NDT
than I did on Levothyroxine, even when my numbers were (on paper) more satisfactory on Levothyroxine. In early February, after a period of taking 1.5 grains, TSH was 0.462 (0.27-4.2), T3 was 4.3 (3.1-6.8), and T4 was 11.3 (12-22).

Cortisol tests
Interestingly, I DID take my
NDT
morning dose normally before the 8am test and there's no difference to the morning result. Any insights to be gained from comparing these tests?

Prescribed NDT on NHS now doctor refusing to prescribe. Help!
He's ordered a months worth of
ndt
. GP said the local health service had issued an edict late 2023 that
ndt
mustn't be prescribedby GPs. GP then said we prescribe by TSH. Yours isn't normal it's suppressed. I said my thyroid hormones are in range.

Suppressed TSH and getting optimum on NDT
I'm being treated by a private thyroid Dr for hypothyroid, I'm on
NDT
Armour and I've been slowly titrating for 12 months from zero treatment. I couldn't get treatment on the NHS. My latest results show TSH at 0.01.

Do you take Adrenal Support?
I’ve been on
NDT
Armour for a year and my FT3 has increased to mid-upper range. The private thyroid Dr didn’t increase my dose (1 and a 1/4 grain, I weigh 52kg) at my last review because he doesn’t think my remaining symptoms are due to hypothyroidism.

T3 and NDT help/advice
I am trying to find out how to self source T3 and/or
NDT
without a prescription should the Endo be unwilling to help me with a trial of T3 or even
NDT
! I understand I need to communicate privately. Please advise.

Natural Desiccated Thyroid, NDT, Sources
Hi everyone, I have been on
NDT
from Thailand for over a decade and I have only just ordered Thyroid-S. The price has gone up and I was a bit worried because I wasn't sure if the supplier would still be available. There used to be so many suppliers and with more competitive prices over there.

Update on visit to gp🙈
I took my roseway information and tablets [
NDT
] with me , she started with my awful TSH range of 45.66 taken on May 31st and asked how I was feeling as this range coupled with my very low T4, T3 would surely be making me feel awful, she asked how long I'd been without my thyroid medication and I told

I did so well on
NDT
until the pig flu debacle years ago, then Armour and the other NDT's stopped working. I currently take only T3 for about 4 years now. I was taking 62.5 mcg split throughout the day.
