I've taken the plunge!
Although feeling my best in the last ten days on t4-100 and t3-20, I've started nature throid today. Very nervous but excited. And thank you everyone in this site for sharing their knowledge and experiences. Clutter and Shaws always sound advice. The symptoms I hope will improve on NDT are water retention

Should I raise NDT?
Hello. I would welcome advice on increasing my dose of Nature Throid. I've had to keep a basic background dose of thyroxine of 100mcg because my original dose was 250 mcg and I am used to high doses. When I tried to cut thyroxine totally and just take starting dose of NDT I was terribly ill, heart pounding

Changing from T3 to Nature Throid
My endo is changing me from 40mcgs Liothyonine to Nature Throid. She had prescribed 2grains. Is this OK to go on straight away? She said it is as been on straight T3

Nature-throid efficacy?
Sorry if this question has already been asked here. I have read so many positive reviews on Nature-throid, but I thought that Nature-throid was reformulated shortly after Armour was, and in a similar/identical way; that is, cellulose replaced dextrose...yet, Nature-Throid seems to work better than Armour

Feeling worse on Nature Throid
Many of you have written posts describing tough times when starting NDT. I am full of admiration for your bravery. After three weeks of dovetailing in Nature Throid with an ever-decreasing dose of thyroxine ( schedules advised by people on this form -many thanks) I am feeling very much worse and starting

Nature throid
Hello all, I'm trying to buy nature throid but found the conversion table a bit confusing. I'm on combo T4 100mcg and T3 20mcg, which seems to be 2 1/2grains? But the capsules come In different strengths. Which one would be better? Is it all right to cut them in half? Thank you

Nature-throid reformulated as well?
I read on the STTM that Nature-throid was reformulated shortly after Armour, and that more cellulose was added. However, most seem to be doing fine on NT (even better than on Armour?) Does anyone know of a pharmacy carrying Nature-throid (and possibly also WP Thyroid) in the UK shipping to other EU

Synthetic thyroxine to ndt
How do people manage to swap from a high dose of synthetic thyroxine to NDT? I'm on 250 thyroxine and 6 Nutri Thyroid ( claimed to have no hormone in but not sure if true). The safe starting doses for Nature Throid ( the NDT not the Nutri Thyroid otc supplement mentioned above) are tiny, say a quarter

Patient leaflet with Nature Throid
Does anyone know what this means, please, on the Patient Leaflet in my pack of Nature Throid? I'm taking vitamin k with my vitamin D so I found this warning baffling: 'Drug Interactions: oral anticoagulants: Thyroid hormones appear to increase catabolism of vitman k- dependent clotting factors. If oral

Nature Throid and Nutri Thyroid
If trying Nature Throid (NDT) should I stop taking Nutri Thyroid (otc supplement) ? I'm on 6 per day of the latter. Thanks! Joeyis7

And again..questions about how I'm feeling
I have been on 150mg of levo and felt ok, but started walking/jogging for 30 minutes 3/x/week (mostly walking). After 4 weeks was exhausted, so upped my meds to 175. I have exercised before (pre-hypo) so I know how I should feel. I still didn't have the umph to keep doing it so took 200mg every other

I wish...
... you could test your thyroid hormone levels as easily as you can check your blood sugar. I'd buy a thyroid hormone monitor. I wonder if there'll ever be such a thing? It's just having bloods done privately is so painfully expensive. I've been on my current dose of Nature Throid for nearly 4 weeks

the best brand of NDT?
There is so much knowledge and expertise here, and I am curious...after everything that has happened (reformulations of various prescription NDT brands), which product(s) do you think work(s) best? Armour? Nature Throid? WP Thyroid? Erfa? NP Thyroid? Thyro Gold? Or a combination of any of those, or other

Nature throid
Hi everyone, I think from reading previous posts that nature throid was reformulated a while ago. I am currently trialling different doses of armour and am possibily going to try nature throid. I have previously been on nature throid from around mid 2010 until the beginning of 2011 which I think was

Dosage Help (Erfa)
I'm currently on 4 grains of Nature-Throid. Would like to try Erfa after these in case they're even better. I'm confused about the dosage though. How many mg of Erfa should I take to replace 200mg of Levothyroxine please? Thanks in advance.

Thyroid Test Results Help Pls!
Hi. I thought I could work this out myself using the optimal thyroid range graph from STTM but it's not making sense. This is what I have - please tell me if you think I should increase my nature Throid. I'm currently on 4 grains a day. Thanks in advance. TSH 1.43 (0.50 - 5.00) Free thyroxine 8.1 (10.0

Does anxiety cause any of you throat issues?
I know I have posted a lot of anxiety and symptom stuff lately but my reasoning in joining this forum is because my health anxiety is the worst it has ever been. :/ Anywho, I think my coming down with a cold 5 weeks ago set this anxiety trend off...the cold gave me oral thrush, I got rid of the thrush

Armour or Nature Throid?/Useless Doctor...
I finally got my Endo to prescribed NDT (Nature Throid to be exact) about 5 months ago. I've been taking 4 grains for the past 2 months and haven't really noticed much difference if any. I went back to him yesterday, told him I don't feel much better but don't feel worse either, he said "yes that's

Can anyone help me interpret these tests rests please??
Hi all, All my results are technically normal. But I'm pretty certain I'm hypo. TSH- 1.91 Free T4 - 13.0 pmol/L B12 (plasma level) - 289 pg/mL Serum Folate- 10 ng/mL Thyroid antibodies - 11 iu/ml T3- 4.8 pmol/L Any thoughts on these? I'm also certain I have very severe adrenal fatigue, but I've
