medichecks results different from GP
I did a home test back in. March in order to get some information other than the GP test who wanted to reduce my Levo and put me on Statins. I take 100mcg daily and feel well on this dosage, when I was on 75mcg, I felt lethargic and not myself. The new results are CRP HS. 1.510 mg/L. (Range < 3

I want to understand what happened to me.
I stopped taking levothyroxine for a month because I wasn’t feeling any improvement at all. Then, I went back on it with a high dose of 100 mcg and felt a quick improvement. I had a lot of energy, and the brain fog disappeared. But, this improvement only lasted for 24 hours. I then increased the dose

My path to combination therapy
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 25 years ago, in my mid-thirties. For almost 20 years, I took only Levothyroxine. I realise now that I was probably depressed for the whole period. Back in 2016, I decided to quit drinking alcohol. I wasn't an alcoholic, but I was drinking every day, and sometimes

helvela Re don’t stop thyroxine b4 blood tests
Taking the thyroxine on the morning of the test, would only confuse the inexperienced. It will change your T4 levels slightly, and not influence your TSH. It won't impact my interpretation of your results. It is not worth worrying about. The vast majority of doctors are experienced enough to understand

Hashimotos & FT3. Advice needed - Rock bottom - About to try Thybon (poor FT4- FT3 conversion).
Hi Everyone, I have been supported a lot by this community already. Thank you. I am a 39 year old male, living in Ireland. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2019. I started Eltroxin at that time. I started on 25mg, and increased to 50mg at the start of 2023. I generally eat well, and exercise

hormonal stimulation or natural cycle IVF
hello, I’m 43 and with anti-muller hormone at 0.48 my doctor says I need to do a light hormonal stimulation so that she gets sufficient quantity of eggs retrieval. My dear is triggering hormonal cancers by the injections. Initially I thought I would do a natural cycle ivf (no hormonal injections), but

I hearken back to my post a few months ago https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/149418197/high-morning-cortisol-and-t3 where I was struggling (and still am) to find a solution to the severe waking anxiety I have had to tolerate for years now. As I feel my adrenals are still playing a big part

Thyroid test results - any thoughts please?
Hi everyone, I’ve had some repeat bloods taken last week. When I posted my last results from Feb this year, it was suggested that they indicated possible central/secondary hypothyroidism and low-ish B12. Can anyone advise me if these latest results are an improvement, or if I should still seek some

How do we get a T3 test requested?
morning, just been reading through a load of things on here as I’m not sure my figures are where they should be at the moment. I’m getting a load of problems lately especially to do with my feet, muscle aches, dry skin, anxiety, brain fog (and also what I think is pulsatile tinnitus that’s driving

Hair loss - Levothyroxine!!
Hi All, Thanks in advance for any reassurance, but since starting on Levothyroxine I’m really noticing that my hair is falling out much more than usual. Whilst I appreciate this can be a side effect it’s quite unsettling…. I was put on a starting dose of Levothyroxine at 50cmg with a TSH level of 48
