I don’t seem to tolerate levothyroxine so been using iodine and was doing fine on it for a while then started feeling not good. I’d used NDT for some months two years ago but hair started dropping and also tried T3 only but same with hair fall. I’ve ordered LDN as I’ve read many people with hashis take

Best levels to aim for.....
After tests which included a nuclear thyroid scan, I was advised to have
Radioactive
Iodine
treatment for hyperthyroidism which was carried out on 21 Jan. I’m due to have blood tests soon, prior to first review with Endo on 3 March.

Purchasing T3 without prescription
Hi everyone, I've been struggling to get better on levothyroxine alone since RAI treatment in September 2018. Please could anyone private message me if you know of a reliable source that can supply T3 without prescription? I appreciate your help. Thanks Craig

Too many unanswered questions - Myxedema
I thought this article would be illuminating. Yet the writers seem to be unaware of a couple of issues that we patients know about. For example, that taking iodine, if you are not tested to be low in it, can be harmful if you have hypothyroidism. For another thing, can a "poor converter" end up with

A hello , a check in and a recommendation (Naproxen)
Hi Ladies, Hoping you’re all ok it’s been awhile since I’ve posted. I’m personally very eager to get the ball roll again with treatment and seeing a specialist, we wait so long in normal circumstances that this situation seems cruel. GP’s have been pretty good though I must say. I’ve recently

High Free Thyroxine
The kind and generous people on this forum have taught me all I know about thyroid generally. Thank you! Now, I really would be grateful for your views on my personal condition. Diagnosed with Graves Disease in 2014 I underwent RAI Therapy in 2016. From the outset my blood results were anomalous.

Dental treatment
Is anyone else suffering from a rotten tooth while halfway through chemo? I would welcome any advice. I am surviving at the moment, trying to stay on Paracetamol with Ibuprofen and codeine for when necessary. The dentist says I must have swelling and a temperature before they will consider seeing me.
