Blood pressure medication.
Hi everyone. Just a quick question. I was at hospital today as my blood pressure was extremely high, I haven't had any problems before with it but the high BP was found by a dentist who suggested I go to my GP. Long story short - hospital have put me on BP meds, 1 a day in the morning. I told the Dr

new Levo
I have just collected my new Levo prescription and have been given Aristo, has anyone used this and had any bad side effects? The reason I ask is that I can’t take Teva or Wockhardt

Taking levothyroxine with Lansoprazole and Atorvastatin and others

Trying to sort out the best timing as many seem to impact thyroid medication I take Levothyroxine early in the morning Aspirin and Clopidogrel after breakfast Atorvastatin in the evening I now need

Why should ft4 be at a certain percentage through reference range (mid to upper) when on T4/T3 combination therapy when T4 is inactive?
As per the subject title, if ft4 is inactive, then why do some people on T4/T3 therapy only feel good if their ft4 level is at the mid/upper level despite the fact their ft3 (active form) may be at a optimal level? Or if they are not feeling well, why are they advised to increase their Levo dosage if

Hi all, I previously posted on behalf of my Mom. TSH, B12, folate and vitamin D below was taken 21/12/23. GP prescribed 50,000 unit 1 a week for 6 weeks vitamin D caps. So we see the ones called calceous 400 unit with calcium 1 twice a day did not maintain her level. So that could be one reason why she

Advice regarding Thyroid levels
Hi Could do with some advice regarding my thyroid test levels. I have Hashimoto's but am not taking thyroid medication due to my TSH levels not being high enough yet. I was diagnosed just over 2 years ago after my health had declined for several years. My GP did however agree to a 25mcg Levothyroxine

T3 and updates.
Hope everyone is having a good day and not pouring it down and misty as it is here. Managed to have a telephone consultation with my usual Dr. today that I feel was helpful. My T3 result was done with my last tests and is 4.5 which said in normal range. I only had one thyroid test prior to beginning

Dr Richard Pope
Hi all. My T4-T3 conversion is rubbish, and I have had to slightly reduce my Levo to get my T4 back down into the range. Symptoms are now coming back, and I’m really fed up. I really need T3. I was wondering if anyone had any experience/feedback regarding Dr Richard Pope who is based in Bingley, West

would you add more T3?
hi all, I’ve just got my latest results back, 12 hours between T3 last meds and test (26 hours for T4). I’m on 20mcg of T3 (10mcg in the morning, 5 at lunch and then 5 at bed), I’m on 75mcg of Levo. I don’t have the rough feeling anymore like I used to, but still weight resistance, tired in the late

blood results
Hi, I have had my blood results back from blue horizon. The only one they said was low was the TSH at 0.06. I was expecting this as I’ve been self sourcing T3 . Little worried about what my endo will say when he reruns bloods next month, as he’s not keen to raise my levo above 50. Results are below,
