New T3 Supplier Please
Hi Everyone, I posted earlier about my T3 supplier and have been advised by mods to consider change to Tiromel instead as better availability. I would really appreciate details of recent suppliers for this, by DM only please as per group rules. Thank you and keep well everyone. Gillian

Re: ?D102 test
Hiya! Does anyone know, please: 1) If the D102 test is the one that tests for the gene related to t4 to t3 conversion? 2) I looked at Regenerus Labs and on the test it says: “DI02 Support telephone consultation…Recommended: Contact practitioner before placing order” does anyone know what this

latest bloods
I’m on a journey with t3 it’s taking a while. Latest bloods reflect 15mcg taken in one dose and 50mcg levothyroxine I think I need to increase levo but on 75 I was slightly over medicated I felt. A reply on here suggested 62.5mcg as middle road which makes sense to me but pills are tiny and crumbly

T3 private source
I wonder is it possible to source T3 outside of UK as you can with NDT? Been on NDT a few years but this latest batch doesn’t seem to suit like it usually does. Please PM me if know of a reliable source. Thank you.

Was hoping for some advice please
Didn't really receive any advice from my previous post https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/151062372/help-please After dropping from 125mcg Levo to 100mcg and retesting after 9 weeks, my T4, very surprisingly, is still quite high in range and I think I still feel overmedicated. As with last

Short synacthen test. Any restrictions recommended re medicines please
I have a short synacthen booked via endocrinology NHS.As I use inhaler for COPD, I have been advised not to use it after 4pm the day before. Other than this, everything else, including food, as normal. Does anyone know if this is the only medication I should stop. Thanking you

I have increased my Levo to 50 mcg and 5 mcg T3. It has been 8 days now. I have stabbing pains all over my body, my palms are burning hot, I am hot and itchy forearms. Feel awful. My joints in knees, ankles and wrists are stiff especially my thumbs. Endo is on leave for 3 weeks. Am I now over medicated

dreaded GP request for bloods
Well there it is. It took longer than I expected I must say - around 7 years since I started my (real) thyroid journey, and about 5 since I last spoke to a GP about it, but the call has finally come. No more T3 until they have bloods. Of course I have bloods, but they almost all show me being over

adrenal insufficiency
hi I have a question about changing medication. I have GCA (3 years) but doing well and have reduced pred to 3mg. My endocrinologist wants to change the prednisilone to cortisone twice a day, 10mg am and 5mg pm in order to help kick start the adrenals. I've had the short Synacthen test twice now and

Supplements for Insulin Resistance
Hello Everyone, I've been reflecting on my symptoms and have come to realize that they are all connected to insulin resistance. These include issues like brain fog, not feeling satisfied after meals and feeling dizzy in the evening etc. The good news is that my fasting insulin levels are now within

Thyroid meds after pregnancy
Hi,I recently tested positive naturally after years of infertility and IVF. I am going to phone my GP on Monday but the functional thyroid doctor who has prescribed me LDN and T3 is currently on leave. I am currently on 4.5mg LDN, 125mg levothyroxine and 25mg T3.

How to split thyroid erfa in two doses?
Good morning, I have been taking thyroid erfa for more than a year now. It has helped a lot. Higher body temperature, higher pulse, no more constipation, no more cold chills, very good free T3 levels (5+), no more heart palpitations. However, I am still very tired and it gets me the most around lunch

Cortisol Testing
I found the following on Google... Can you test cortisol levels while on prednisone? If you are on prednisolone once daily, you can have a synacthen test in the morning before your next dose. The prednisolone from 24 hours previously will not be detectable, so the cortisol values will be accurate. https

Should I be concerned, or not?
HiI was referred to Hepatology by Haemotology in January as my ferritin levels were fluctuating. I had an ultrasound and a fibroscan and eventually saw the consultant in late May. He was very reassuring, told me my liver is "mildly fatty, has some inflammation, is relatively stiff with some scarring

Low synacthen test result
I've had one of these tests today and the nurse said I was very low at producing cortisol. That will explain my knackeredness for 2 months after each 0.5mg taper, (nearly stop technique) and I'm on 3.5mg at the moment. As it will be a while before I see my rheumy I wondered what we're the implications
