Cortisol help please
Been feeling really tired for about 6 months and trying to work out why. The last thing I had added before this was testosterone to existing HRT, so I stopped that again about 4 months ago, so not an effect of that now. I take T3 only, have not changed dose for some time and my results are towards top

newbie and waiting….
Hi! I’m a newbie. Backstory: mom and both sisters have Hashimoto’s. My mom passed in 2010 & was told she had “inflammatory arthritis” a couple years before she passed (although by then that was the least of her medical worries). Flash way forward: I started having ocular migraines, very brief (10 seconds

Bowel and bladder problems after Radiotherapy
Hi, I am Maz and I am 76 years old, I still work but from home now. I have suffered with multiple sclerosis for over 40 years although apart from the early years it hasn't bothered me too much until 2013 when I was diagnosed with anal cancer stage T3. I underwent some chemo and a great deal of radiotherapy

Help with vitamins
My ferritin and B12 keep going down despite the fact that I take supplements. Since being diagnosed with Hypothyroidism, Coeliac and SIBO they were steadily going up - I got my ferritin from 2 to 75, but in the last year it’s gone down to 39. My B12 is at 318 and was almost 500 a year ago. Does anyone

Atrophied Thyroid....
Hi All, I looking for advice again! After being ill over Christmas and convinced it was my medication, coming off everything bar my 100mg Levothyroxine, symptoms didn't improve. My GP thought I had Sjorgrens, I've been told CREST too, only to find out in a call from an RA Consultant on Monday which i

T3/T4 HRT Meds before surgery?
Hello lovely people, i hope everyone is managing to catch up on the long overdue sun ;) Sadly, my gynaecologist has found an ovarian tumour which needs to be removed and biopsied. Recovery from this will take between 6-8 weeks. I am in really good health otherwise but do take 150mg Levo and 45mg Liothyronine

Hydroxyurea and Anagrelide
Goid evening, I visited a local hematologist this week, not my MPN specialist, due to non coverage and he suggested trying combo of Hydroxyurea and Anagrelide. Has anyone used this combination for treatment of ET? Also, maybe (2) 81 mg baby aspirin/ day to counteract the ever increasing platelets which

Recommendation request for 2nd opinion and interpretation of results
I'm looking for feedback (via private DM please) from anyone who has been seen by Mr Barnes (Endocrinologist) at Tunbridge Wells or a Dr Christine Suppelt, Rose Cottage Clinic also in Kent. Would appreciate any perspectives on either clinician, both of whom I found on the Thyroid UK practitioners' list

For anyone who is on T3 only... When did you realise you needed it?
Hi everyone. I've been on a real journey since January with Hashimoto's. I started on levothyroxine and it made me feel a lot worse. I started seeing a private thyroid doctor who looked at my bloods and saw my T3 had dropped on levo, and with my symptoms she decided levo was not right for me and put

Atorvastatin
hello. Mr GP surprised me when I visited him for something else when he informed me I had high cholesterol (7.5) and prescribed 30mg of Atorvastatin daily. Within a few days bad side effects appeared. I became so tired and drowsy. If I sat down I fell asleep almost instantly. I got an extreme

Shall I raise my Levo
I’ve been on 115mcg of T4 now for around 3 months. For one month I did the carnivore/keto diet with a little T3 but it was so hard to stick to. I’ve been eating normally again with no T3 now for about 2-3 weeks. My levels are still quite low so I’m thinking of going up to 125mcg per day does this sound

1 year post diagnosis
I am a 54 yo male living in Vegas, I found out I was Jak2 positive last year, looked at labs before doctor and freaked. I have been having slightly higher RBC and Platelets for around 6-7 years. I used to donate blood pretty regularly and took testosterone, so the doctors kinda ignored it. I was a paramedic

T3 battles
I’m on T3 only, taking 30mcg in one dose daily. Spoke to the endocrinologist this morning and after explaining to her that the reason I don’t take levothyroxine is because it made me far worse she said she’s never heard anyone that’s happened to. I told her I currently have symptoms of being under medicated

Best way to take NDT
Hello, today is my first day taking NDT. I was on a T4/T3 combo for the last two years. I usually chewed my meds (T4, T3) and tried to grind them as much as possible with my teeth before drinking a glass of water. What is the best way to take NDT? Can I take it in the same way to ensure good absorption
