T3 High again - Help, please.
I've been on 3 grains of Nature-Throid for a couple of years and having my GP almost continuously sending me letters saying your T3 is too high. Because I was getting eczema in my fingers I thought that maybe the cause was the T3 being too high so about 3 months ago now I reduced it to 2 1/2 grains instead

I've come to the conclusion I have Lupus, regardless what the NHS think
Just wanna start off by saying I came down with
Strep
throat
this week. High temputure tonsoles riddled with white dots.. I called the 111 service and they misdiagnosed it as a cold so I managed to get down the doctors who confirmed it was
Strep
throat
and I was given penicillin.

Since being on Levothyroxine I have almost constantly had strep throat, antibiotics take it away for a week or so, then it comes back,
I have had an ultrasound and have a multinodular goitre but she said none of them looked suspicious.

Synthetic thyroid: Levothyroxine (eg: Synthroid; Levoxyl; Levothroid; Unithroid) OR natural: Armour Thyroid; Westhroid; Nature-throid?
I would appreciate any comments regarding experiencing treatment with either synthetic or natural thyroid. Also, I have read that the new formula for Armour isn't as effective as the old one?

Nature Throid V Levo?
I've been Hypo for over 3 yrs and earlier this year had TPO test and was over 500 so was diagnosed with Hashi's. I saw an Endo in may who put me on T3, which I took for 1 mth, didn't see the Endo again as he was private and I was made redundant. ( work paid for private health care). I was getting severe

I thought you weren't supposed to take thyroid meds alongside calcium?!
I noticed the other day that on my bottles of Nature Throid it lists the main ingredients as (per 1/2 grain) liothyronine 4.5mcg, levothyroxine 19mcg, and calcium 9mg (plus magnesium, sodium (each) less than 1mg) In the full list of ingredients on the leaflet it says 'dicalcium phosphate' which as well

Pooling?
Hi I was hoping someone could give some advice on pooling? I've temporarily stopped my Nature-Throid meds while I try and sort this out, but could really use some advice. I don't know the best way to deal with this or how long it might be a problem. I had a severe ME diagnosis, but

Unusual Throat Problem
Hi, I don't know if anyone has had a bad throat where there are white small patches that keep coming and going and red sore patches. I have had this for about 5 weeks now. Been to the gp's and at first they gave me penicillin which did not work. Then I was given Erythromycin, I was only on that 2 days

Desiccated thyroid v Levothyroxine
I recently emailed Erfa and the makers of Nature-Throid primarily about the consistency of their products. I've had a reply back from Erfa. They didn't exactly provide what I was looking for but they did send me a copy of the study published in March 2013 which Rod blogged about here. Is there any way
