Self medication/St Bart's
Hi all, I am at breaking point once again and have some questions I would really like some support with, so thanks in advance to anyone who responds. I managed to get Armour via my Endo over a year ago. This has been a painful process of never knowing when I would get repeats, many blood tests etc,

Ultra scan results
Hello, this is my second attempt of posting. Hope it goes through this time. I have recently had a Thyroid Ultra scan, and it has been revealed to me that my thyroid has shrunk, is small and more or less given up the ghost. This is the conclusion that myself and my Consultant Radiographer (superb

What is the difference between westhroid pure & Nature-throid?
Morning everyone, Just a quick question regarding Thyroid meds. The reason I ask is because I am trying to find one that is more suitable for me, I have tried westhroid pure and surprisingly that was the worst of them all but it would be handy to Know if nature-throid is different - as you can buy them

7 months postpartum with thyroid problems
Hi! I am desperate for help. I had my son 7 months ago. 2 months ago had my thyroid levels checks. My TSH came back at a 92.6. Dr said I have hashis and put me on 50mcg of Levo. Still felt terrible. I now see a different dr who has me on Nature Throid. My hair loss is at an all time high. I've lost

Naturethroid to thyroid-s
Hi I have ordered thyroid - s, currently been taking nature throid, 3 grains which I take all at once when I go to bed. Does anyone have any idea how best to change over? Should I just directly switch? or are there differences? Thanks :-)

Nature-Throid
I have a question about Nature-Throid: it seems that most patients are happy with it, although it was reformulated like Armour. So how can NT work better than Armour?

Nature-Throid in other countries?
Where I live, it is illegal to import prescription drugs, so I'd hesitate to order from a country outside the EU. I found a pharmacist willing to order NT even though the prescription was for Armour, but I am not sure if that will last...I'd prefer to find a doctor to prescribe it if it really turns

Nature-Throid dosing?
I have a question to those of you who successfully switched to Nature-Throid from another brand of NDT. Did you dosing requirements change as well? Many on old Armour had to raise it quite a bit after the reformulation. Would the same apply to Nature-Throid? I have unsuccessfully tried to find out if

price of Nature-Throid?
Ok, so I contacted a pharmacy and was told they would be able to order Nature-Throid even if my prescription is for Armour or Erfa, but only 30, 60, and 90 mg pills. A two months' supply will cost me 564€ (ca 400 £). That means that, if I do great on Nature-Throid and want to stay on it, I will have

Historical dosing with desiccated thyroid
A number of people have read and mentioned old reports which refer to doses of desiccated thyroid. One thing that is not obvious from these accounts is that the UK and the USA adopted different standards of potency. In the early twentieth century the basic means of assaying desiccated thyroid was to

Nature-Throid reformulation
I wanted to ask a question about Nature-Throid. I read that NT was reformulated shortly after Armour, but I wanted to know if it was really reformulated in the same way? I read somewhere that the old NT contained methyl cellulose, and that it was replaced by microcrystalline cellulose in the new version

Armour compared to Nature-Throid?
As far I know, NT was reformulated shortly after Armour, but is still considered a good drug given the number of positive reviews both here and elsewhere. I'd be interested to hear form those of you who have tried both Armour and Nature-Throid since the reformulation; did you feel that NT was more effective

where to get Nature-Throid?
If anyone knows a reliable source of Nature-Throid shipping from Europe, would you please send me the details in a PM? I would like to try NT, as I have read so many great things about it but, unfortunately, only Armour and Erfa are available where I live.

Marvelous Metformin
Why not to scoff at Metformin! Two weeks on Metformin to try and control the killing cravings for bread, pasta and all things chocolate - or faux chocolate, as in Kit Kat, Snickers, Twirl, Flake and the ridiculously priced hard chocolate caramels I can go through in a oner, and I can honestly say it

Nature-throid
Have a private prescription for Nature-throid. Consultant told me to try a particular pharmacy listed on thyroid uk website but they are dearer than a wholesaler listed on the thyroid website that accepts private prescriptions. Will it be the same make of tablet just checking no generics. Sorry new to
