Can a Levo dose be split Am and Pm, and can NDT be taken Am and a Levo dose added PM?
Hi Everyone, Still struggling with dose and timings 8 years into medication. I wasnt sure if anyone here has had success adding some Levo into their NDT regime in the afternoon, or whether its best to take Levo first thing in the morning (or bedtime if that the routine ) and or add a 2nd dose of Levo

Abnormally cold!
just had a thyroid function test as complained to GP of not being able to regulate my body temperature very well. As the weather gets colder so do I which might seem normal but it’s dropping as low as 33.5* when air temperature is 19 degrees C. Thought of winter approaching is worrying as had this problem

So, this is crazy!
Had follow up blood tests recently after levothyroxine increase from 25 micrograms to 50 micrograms. Did tests through both the GP and Medichecks (since they had the Thyroid function test on offer a few weeks back). I have a professional blood draw at a local clinic for the Medichecks test, rather than

Can I still get NDT/Thyroid S?
I had to stop taking NDT when COVID halted the supply. If anyone has information on how to obtain it now, can you please PM me. Levothyroxine is dire. Thanks. Xx

FODMAP book recommendation
Hello everyone, Can someone please point me in the direction of a comprehensive FODMAP book? I’ve become increasingly intolerant to so many foods which cause me no end of widespread pain/inflammation/reflux. I’m gluten free and now dairy free, also avoiding soya and am now very reluctantly going

Can anyone offer some help regarding my Ferritin levels for my RLS please.
Hi! I'm after some support and recommendations please. I started running as my BP has gone into high range. Unfortunately, shortly after, I started to get RLS at night. I don’t know if exercise and RLS are linked, but I need to continue to exercise, to help manage my high BP and Hba1c. Unfortunately

Too much levo or T3?
I’ve been on a 50mcg levo dose for just over 6 weeks and introduced t3 at 3mcg increasing up to 9mcg over that time. I was previously taking 2-3 metavive I per day but didn’t feel right so moved to levo. I’ve taken levo before and didn’t have great results as it made me very lightheaded, foggy and tired

Getting ready to begin T3... YAY... but...
I found a swell Endo (unwilling to wait 6-12 months for the NHS referral), and he's prescribing Tybon Henning 20mcg tablets to chop up. I currently take 75mcg Levo and have done so for 20+ years. I feel like a slug, gained about two stone in the past 3 years, have chronic pain, no libido, a bit depressed
