Does anyone use āActive Ironā in UK?
I searched for ferrous bisglycinate on Amazon UK which came up with Active Iron 25mg. Iāve now received it and found it contains ferrous sulfate 25mg! Now I donāt know if this is the right product or dose. Can anyone help?

advice please - not so optimal after all š³
MMH test just in, Iāve been on Aristo 125mcg since mid December and 5mcg compounded T3 for 8 weeks. FT3 6.8 (3.1-6.8) FT4 27.7 (12-22) TSH <0.01 (0.27-4.2) I have worked hard on gut health so could well be absorbing better. I have very slowly lost 2 kg over 8 weeks but been super good about restricting

Iron supplements dosage
Is 20mg of gentle iron each night enough? It worked well the first night. What a wonderful relief it was. The second night it did work within 70 mins but returned within 3 hours.. I wonder why it didn't last as long? Would a slow release be better, like ferrous sulphate 325mg? Or will it need to be

My Dad had his TSH done only again on Sunday 2/7/23; his TSH came back over 2.0. He took the meds at 3.30am early saturday Morning and had the test done at 8.30am on Sunday. They were surprisingly lower than he test he had done in April when his TSH was 5.19 after taking his meds! My Dad thinks he

Currently 75mcg of tirsosint and 1 grain of Armour. Synthetics seperate meds do not work for me I had just came off of t4 and t3 separate meds after a year of feeling like I was going to die (no matter what adjustments etc). I do feel much better on this combo but still have all the hypo symptoms. GF

Vitamin B complex before blood tests
I know that you should stop any b vitamin supplements for 3-7 days before a thyroid test due to the biotin but does this apply to other blood tests. GP wants me to do some blood tests next week for iron etc and wondering if I should stop the b complex before. TIA

Zinc and Copper Deficiencies
Hello, All! Well it's always something - isn't it? Before I begin - a refresher - I have AMAG, PA; take B12 sublinguals daily along with 500mg folic acid daily, iron twice a week - low dose, vitamin D daily and thyroid med daily. Because of my inability to absorb B12 I thought maybe other nutrients

Six Months later - upcoming meeting with my MD (input needed)
[lab tests are from October 2022] So, it is 6 months later and things were going well on 0.075mg Synthroid (75 mcg) and 15 mcg Cytomel divided over 3 daily doses. I have been diligent with supplementing iron using a heme polypeptide every second day, alternating with zinc w/ copper and of course taking

Blood test follow up
Thank you all for your help. Results of discussion with doc - Parathyroid hormone: 10.93 (range 1.5-7.2), higher than range but lower than a year ago apparently (14+). This was a few months before my GCA diagnosis. Still waiting on results for B12, iron, folate. A year ago vit D levels and calcium

Recommendations for multivits
Hi everyone, Still waiting for my blood results from IFAB/Parietal cell/MMA/etc, etc. Hopefully have them next week, so š¤ for some answers... In the meantime, I've been SI-ing B12 EOD and also taking gentle iron. Kind of have some answers of my own already though, as I'm already feeling TONS better
