New Results – High Reverse T3 Again
Hi All, I'm back with new blood test results after 8 weeks back on Synthroid 125mcgs. I was fed up with trying new things, so I went back to what worked for me originally to get a clean slate. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me any longer. I'm more exhausted than ever, have put on another 10 pounds

If you were me, would you forget the Levo and self medicate?
I know you guys aren't doctors, but I am really in 2 minds to know what to do for the best.

Please help me understand my blood test!
Hi guys. I'm new here. Looking back, I think I have had an underactive thryroid since I was 14yrs old. (I am now 38yrs old.) I had my 1st NHS test when I was 20yrs old, which came back "normal". When I was 30yrs old, I went to see Dr Peatfield. Under his care, for the last 8 yrs, I have been taking:

What Doctors Consider Beneficial treatment.
How does it make sense to replace one set of problems with another? Take levothyroxin fix your thyroid levels feel like an achy arthritic oldie. Take cytomel fix your thyroid level, nausea, heart like a mouse, high blood pressure headaches, Take hydrocortisone fix your adrenals bad/painful skin insulin

Nature Throid
I wanted to take Armour, but the doctor said Nature Throid was better because it has T1234. Since taking it, I feel better but am still tired most afternoons. She prescribed Cytomel 5 mgs for the afternoon, but It doesn't seem to be working. So I'm thinking since I feel so perky in the morning, maybe

New Labs, Feeling like Crud, Need your help!
Hey all! You've all been so hopeful before and I have some new recent labs... The back story is that I had TT due to thyca 11/14, RAI 1/15. Started 150 Levoxyl, added in Cytomel, went to NDT and have since gone back to the T4/T3 combo. A month ago I was advised to not only add in the 5 mcg of

Novothyral Finally !!!.
Hello I've got the novothyral without prescription online finally . Now my question is this: I take it as levothyroxine once or twice because it contains T3 as Cytomel? . It is a dilemma because this medicine is a balance between levothyroxine and Cytomel for example. Thanks a lot.!!!!

rT3 dominance?
I have been wondering lately if I could be suffering from rT3 dominance. I have read that a lot of things can cause rT3 pooling: low cortisol (I have been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue), blood sugar issues, vitamin and mineral deficiencies... I know some labs offer rT3 testing, but they seem few and

T3 problems
Hi all, I was doing well on Tiromel and then REALLY well on Cytomel from the Mexican friends. Following them no longer supplying I got Tiromel again from a different site as my original supplier sold out but I think it may be fake. The boxes are bigger and I am not feeling great. Has anyone had this

T3 is not working! How long does it take?
So, I had finally started to take only Cytomel with 3 doses per day (6mcg/dose) and I felt horrible. Headache, brain fogginess, breathing problems, and fear increased! So I again started to take t4 by reducing to 50 mcg from 75 mcg with ~12 mcg t3 just after one day of t3 only. I am still feeling horrible

Gluten In Cytomel?
From a recent issue of the USA branch of the Alliance for Natural Health newsletter. PR "Hypothyroid patients, take note: your medicine might now include gluten as an ingredient. A representative from Pfizer has said that the source of the starch in Cytomel cannot be verified and could come from corn

T3 doesn't seem to be working any more.
I've been taking Cytomel and then Uni Pharma T3 when the Cytomel source dried up, for almost four years. Lately, I have had to raise my dose as it doesn't seem to be working anymore. I have pushed the dose as high as 100mcgs but my temps and heart rate continue to drop. Yesterday, my heart rate was 48

Cytomel T3
Hi all, Has anyone purchased the above online, some feedback would be helpful. My friend has been listening to me researching my thyroid problem and that if you are not converting t4 into t3 then you need to get some t3. So she went online and purchased the above and is taking 25mg but has not reduced
