Advice on Blood results - Add more T3?
Still just don't quite feel right on Levo & T3 combo. Hard to put my finger on it. Tired & headachey. I am on 100mg of T4 (skipping 2 days a week so about 71mg) and 12.5mg of T3 (half a 25mcg tiromel) daily. My latest blood results are: TSH 0.2 (0.2-6) FT4 13.7 (10-20) FT3 3.9 (3.5-7) Before I started

European Source of Nature Throid
I have been on Nature Throid before and did really well on it. I would like to go back on it and wondered if there is anyway to source it without a prescription in Europe? Previously I got it from the USA but I've checked and the price has now doubled. If anybody can help I would appreciate a private

New diagnosis, not seeing results - is this normal?

Fear of oral thrush
I've had health anxiety for 40 years_seemed to have a good hold on it the past few years but now I have oral thrush for the first time ever and I'm so worried as to what caused it-I wake up in the middle of the night in a panic worried I have some disease like diabetes or something-too scared to even

CHANGING OVER FROM NATURE THROID TO ERFA
Hello You Guys, I am wanting to change over to Erfa as I feel I had a better result with Erfa, but I have been on Nature Throid for about 2 and a half years now.

Levo + T3 v's NDT?
I would love to hear from anyone that has had experience of some kind of NDT and then successfully switched to a T4 /T3 combo or vice versa? I was on 100mg of Levo then had 18mths on 1.5 grains of Nature Throid. Switched back to Levo due to cost & convenience. Started to add T3 2 weeks ago as T4 alone

Getting closer to being well
Good morning. Since Decemeber when i had my first tests on armour a lot has happened. I felt wonderful and then started having slight hyper symptoms about 6 wks in. T4/T3 levels good but .04 TSH after 8 wks. I didn't notice until after the fact of the ENDO pulling me off Armour 1 grain (60 mg),

Should my sore throat have lasted this long?
Hi I have tonsillitis at the moment, and most of my symptoms are gone after 3 days, but my throat is still very sore. It's very hard to swallow, and a little bit hard to talk. I'm very blocked up aswell and have a lot of phlegm. Shouldn't the sore throats have been gone by now??? I'm scared it's taking

Switching to Nature-Throid
Hi, I am currently on 4 grains of Thiroyd. My lab results show that I am over-medicated. However, I do not have any hyper symptoms and still have all hypo symptoms. My doctor has prescribed me 2 grains of Nature-Throid. Do you think it would be better if I stop taking Thiroyd for a couple days and start

Looking for GP or endocrinologist in Newcastle area for NDT Rx
I'm moving from the United States to Newcastle soon and am hoping to find a doctor in the area who is willing to prescribe WP Thyroid (a natural desiccated thyroid made by the same company that produces Nature-throid). A GP who is willing to prescribe WP Thyroid on a named-patient basis would be ideal

Possible Behçet's Syndrome
I had
strep
throat
4 or 5 times in the span of 2 years when I was a kid. Enough that I'm now allergic to penicillin. I guess my question is how do you bring it up to a doctor? What do I even say? How do I ask and what tests are there for them to give me?

Levo to Nature throid
Hello, I have been on 100mg of Levothyroxine for years and not felt better. I have bought nature throid. My question is how do I go about the change over, I thought one grain to begin with and increase by one quarter every ten days or so? Also how long do I need to have sopped the levo before I begin

TSH has risen on NDT
I've been on 1 grain (on average) NDT for two months. When I first started out my TSH had dropped from 10-5 on Levo 50mg/75mg. Sorry don't have the ranges - costs me £100 to get the rest of the information as private :-( I am on Nature Throid . I don't particularly any symptoms! Eugh - is it time for

New here and need some help with my results
Hi everyone. I have recently joined here and am hoping someone can help me to interpret my latest full blood panel. I was diagnosed hypothyroid in October 2015 and was prescribed 50 mcg of Levo which improved my symptoms enough to go back to work but not enough to feel well again. I went downhill again

Just started Nature Throid NDT - what to expect??
Hi everyone, first time posting so sorry if it's a long lost. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 2014 (TSH was greater than 100 and T4 was undetectable, antibodies very high) I've been on the standard T4 replacement since that time but didn't react well at first to the meds. I haven't felt anywhere

Methotrexate and sore throat
I'm rechallengimg methotrexate but like last time I've not only developed a sore tongue but a sore throat. The sensation is as though I've got ulcers at the back of my throat. Has anyone else has this side effect. I struggle to work out which side effect belongs to which drug :)
