Ppl who switched from synthetic thyroid meds to naturethroid how long before you saw improvement?
I had been on tirosint t4 only thyroid med 88mcg and just switched to naturethroid a week ago. I'm on one grain split in two daily doses and as of yet I feel no better. I had no energy,depressed,anxiety,no appetite,lost weight etc and nothing is better how long before I should notice a change

TSH higher after Levo increased
TSH on 11/09/2015 2.2 (0.2-4.5), my GP has just called to advise that my latest test on 06/11/2015 my TSH was 2.6??? How come after increasing Levo from 100 to 125 my TSH increases? GP is referring me to Dr Alan Jaap - Endo at Spires so hopefully will get some answers. What are your thoughts on how

Such a never ending cycle
My consultant said if my PF was stable for a few days in a row I could start attempting to wean down the preds. So I had a few good days, I wasn't going to be running any marathons anytime soon but I could actually have a conversation without getting out of breath from the talking and winding up sounding

FISH TEST
Dear CLL experts can someone please tell me what the FISH test is? I do understand that it is the main test to determine CLL. Since I have only had PET scans and MRI I'm wondering if the FISH test is a blood test? Or is the FISH test a bone marrow test? Thanks I know this is a very basic question

Ketamine
Hi :) about two months ago I had a ketamine infusion, the docs told me it may make the symptoms ease, stay the same or make things worst. Unfortunately for me it made me worse for a couple of weeks and then back to how I was before the infusion. I'm slowly losing the hope so miserable. Start a mental

Treatment
This may sound silly, but what is the usual route following diagnosis? So far, it is just my GP I am seeing. He has been great in terms of getting me started on Warfarin and Cardicor, I have seen him once since starting that,when he increased the Cardicor. I have also had an echocardiogram me, although

Zyban and thyroid meds
I've just started on zyban / bupropion / wellbutrin for my bipolar disorder and so far it's going really well. However, I'm getting hot flushes and tachycardia which I would normally associate with being overdosed on thyroid meds. My last thyroid panel was good although several members commented that

Haven't slept for ages...any help would be gratefully received.
Hi all I take 150mcg Levothyroxine and 20 mcg Liothyronine. I also take 20 mcg of Paroxetine antidepressant? I was taking all the meds together in the morning, and then realised I should not be taking anything within 4 hrs of my thyroid meds. I take my two thyroid meds in a morning and my Paroxetine

Provera
Hello ladies, I've been on provera now for about 3 weeks. I ended up having a blood test Saturday as they thought I may have a blood clot from it. I don't but my legs are swollen and the slightest brush of clothes against them feels pretty painful. My doctor said its not an uncommon reaction and to

Thyro Gold?
I have been reading a lot lately about Thyro Gold, formulated by the late Dr. John C. Lowe, that is now sold by his widow. The reviews seem very positive, and I have been wondering about the efficacy of bovine thyroid contra porcine thyroid...as the latter is said to be much closer to human thyroid.

Dry Mouth (Xerostomia)
Has anyone tried using Pilocarpine or Cevimeline tablets for helping to alleviate the symptoms of dry mouth. They have been used with some success in the USA but are not licensed for use in the UK because there have been no clinical trials.
