Getting the NDT dosage right
Hello again friends, I'm writing again in the hope that your collective expertise will come up with a solution for me. I switched from Levothyroxine to NDT (NP Thyroid) some time back, and I've been testing every 12 weeks and tweaking the dose trying to get it right. The latest results, which arrived

I have hashimotos

Hi, I just did my annual thyroid test. It's not disastrous, but my Ft3 has dropped to the lowest it's been in many, many years. I did wonder if I was slightly undermedicated as I randomly had a migraine a few weeks ago and lots of low level headaches (not had migraines since I was last hypo - 13 years

T3 question
I’m currently on T3 only because of bad reaction with levothyroxine. I’ve been on Liothyronine 10mcg twice a day since 11 November. I haven’t been back to the doctors for a thyroid function test since October as I’ve read frequently that on T3 only they go more on symptoms than levels. I no longer have

Cramps day 9 after a day5 transfer
Hi, I just wondered what people’s thoughts on this are. I’m having a flutter of cramps in my tummy this evening and feel like my period is about to start. That same heavy feeling you get and the urge to eat chocolate. Has anyone else had similar cramps and gone on to have a successful pregnancy test

Help boosting thyroid without medication?
Hello all I have posted before as my thyroid function is poor but always comes back in range (my TSH never rises even with low levels) so no chance of medication on the NHS (other than statins for high cholesterol which I refuse). I did some recent tests TSH 1.95 (0.27-4.2) T4 14.6 (12-22) T3

B12 and Ferritin results
Just had blood tests and results for B12 are 201 (110-900) and ferritin 59 (30-337). Am I right in thinking these should be higher?

Success Yesterday! I’ve been prescribed T3! But should I reduce my Levothyroxine?
Hello everyone, currently feeling relieved and hopeful, I had my consultation with the Roseway Labs pharmacist and she agreed my FT3 level was too low (4.2 - range 3.1 - 6.8). She has prescribed Sigma Pharma 2.5mcg daily for the first 2 weeks and then 5mcg per day. Looking forward now to them

Different brands of Liothyroxine
Hi just a quick question. I am one of the fortunates that had an endo willing to prescribe T3. My first prescription was issued by the hospital pharmacy and my second by my local pharmacy… they are two different brands (I haven’t started taking either yet for reasons not related ) I queried this with

Thoughts please!
I am still struggling terribly to tolerate any doseage of levo or lio - combo or mono. It makes me feel even worse/is completely debilitating. I have tried changing when I take the doses, the brand etc you name it and still no better. It’s notable that my blood pressure gets too low on it too. Am I
