Switching Back To Synthroid
Today is day 1 going back to
synthroid
from being on Nature-Throid for 6 months. I just don’t believe I’m tolerating the NDT well and have to make sure. How quickly will I notice a drop in symptoms if I’m right about this hypothesis? I’m on 81.25mg NDT and switching back to 125mcg

Synthroid
without increasing my rt3 too much, while increasing my ft4 and ft3?

Switching from synthroid to thyroid-S
I’m thinking of switching from
synthroid
to thyroid -s, should I just stop the
synthroid
all at once and start on 60mcg of Thyroid-s, or wean off the
synthroid
and slowly add in thyroid-S? I’m doing this on my own, as my Dr thinks I’m within range so I’m fine.

Why does TSH
The endo insisted I go on
synthroid
and then they kept lowering the dose but my TSH levels never came up. I’m going to insist that my dosage is raised as I’m hypo - weight gain swelling achiness feeling blah.

T3 issues
I've been on thyroid replacement Synthyroid for 38 years I'm currently on 125mcg
Synthroid
with the addition of compound T3 dose of 25mcg for the last 10 years or so ( I've tried numerous times to switch to Armour thyroid but it's been a disaster) and had a thyroidectomy due to thyroid cancer 17 years

Need help
Insomnia and hair thinning is horrible since starting
Synthroid
. Can’t imagine what my hair will look like in a few more weeks. My hair was starting to thin after my surgery but now incredibly thin since
Synthroid
usage. Really shocking and unbelievable that hair can thin this rapidly!

Need advice regarding dosage and labs on NDT
I seem to be putting on weight since going on the NDT (was on
Synthroid
for over ten years) even though I'm eating/exercising the same as always. I don't want to give back and go back on
Synthroid
and could really use some advice. Thank you.

Thyroid poisoning
Synthroid
. T3 is fine. Why didn’t he figure this out sooner? I almost died in late Nov. I’m unable to get any blood work done, until my system clears out and begins to stabilize. Will post blood work next mo. Just proves you cannot trust any dr.

Feeling Worse by the Day in Dallas, TX USA
The only medications I have been on are Levothyroxine and
Synthroid
, both at 137 mcg and this has been for the entire time my thyroid has been out of whack. I now have hashimoto's, lupus, Sjrogen's and my thyroid is fluxing between hypo and hyper (my doctor did tell me this!).

Frustrated Hypo
That's when the
Synthroid
dosage was changed to 112mcg. TSH in November 2016 was at 0.11. Dosage not changed. My TSH in December, 2017, went up to 3.19. Doctor didn't want to change the dosage because the T4, 1.51, is at the upper end of the range. I've never been tested for T3.

Way too long on Synthroid alone
I’m hoping my Dr will put me on T3 along with my
synthroid
, but he’s super hesitant on doing that. What can anyone suggest to help with my argument.

Breathing Trouble?
Would adding cytomel to
synthroid
do the same thing for me? My doctor said she’d be willing but she wanted to see what
synthroid
alone did first but now that I’ve messed that test up...
