Introducing myself!
I'm also pre-diabetic but keep my glucose well under control and other than that I just take
synthroid
for hypothyroidism. I'm still feel like a "young" 66 year old" and hope to beat this pmr in a timely manner! Cheers! Diane

Recent blood work

Synthroid
and 7.5 mcg Liothyronine. Dr. Increased
Synthroid

Thyroid panel results for autoimmune w cancer
Or if I tweaked the ThyroGold (had been on 150 mg right before but switched to
synthroid
due to finances). I still have both I can take. A combination of
synthroid
base w a hint of ThyroGold would be best for me financially right now. Unfortunate as that is. Thank you for reading and helping.

Can anyone help convert NDT dose to Levo?
Due to the WP-NatureThroid shortage, I need to take
Synthroid
for 4-5 days. Know there are other NDT options, but doctor hasn't returned my message or email for a new Rxl. Responsive as always & her office is closed Fridays. I've been taking 113.75 mg of NatureThroid.

Should I try to treat my thyroid if I am allergic to the medication or fillers in it?
I was put on
Synthroid
/Levo and had a bad allergic reaction. After a long, long time and a longer story, I was switched to Armour. The allergic reaction only went away when they took me off everything.

Concerned about T3
Hello, I am a hypothyroid patient in Korea am taking
synthroid
currently, but has always felt terrible on it. Here, we actually have compound t3/t4 thyroid medication which I want to try out. Since my TSH has always been suppressed whereas my T3 has always been in below the range.

Hashis, but why is my TSH this high?!?
Hi, in short I have been keeping my TSH down in the normal range with
synthroid
. I got pregnant and ended up doubling my dose by the end of my pregnancy. At my 6 week checkup I was hyper do my Dr dropped my dose to what I was on before I was pregnant, 70mcg.

Update Labs/Contradicting Symptoms:
Back in March I had lowered my T4 to 137
Synthroid
from 163. Just to recap, my main symptoms are not being able to sleep and being fatigued and lethargic. I thought that maybe my FT4 was to blame and T3 doesn't do much for me except makes me feel hot and sweaty, definitely not like the T3 in NDT.

Worried That Hubby is Sub-Clinical Hypothyroid and Would Appreciate Your Opinion
After several moves and different doctors who wanted me to switch to
Synthroid
and/or reduce my 1.5 grain dose, I began relying on my own symptoms and treatment. With the help of this site, I have become more expert on hypothyroidism than most of the doctors who treated me over the years.

Virtual bioequivalence for achlorhydric subjects: The use of PBPK modelling to assess the formulation-dependent effect of achlorhydria
Note the comparison was between
Synthroid
(branded levothyroxine) and Tirosint (gel capsule) - across a range of levels of acidity. (The range of acidities was 7 to 1.2 with 7 being neutral, and 1.2 being strongly acidic.)

Viewpoint from across the pond
Many books/articles talk about TSH,
synthroid
, etc etc. I watched a series of videos with doctors who talked about leaky gut, but it's hard to tell if that's real. This morning I read the thread "New here help with thyroid results please" which I found very interesting!

Questions about getting my wife pregnant, while having APS...
My doctor started me on Warfarin and
Synthroid
which have been working well. My thyroid is under control and my INR is around 3. I feel great now compared to what it was like a year ago, but I have also gained weight and am not as active as I would like to be.

Interesting story about thyroid treatment back to 1955
I highly suspect she was taking NDT since I don't think
Synthroid
was available then. He said she was healthy and energetic. I thought this was interesting.

Does medication screw up the thyroid hormones if prematurely treating a euthyroid syndrome?
I convinced the doctor to start me on
Synthroid
. Now check this out, compared to that 12% T4 and 37% T3. After being put on
Synthroid
, T4/T3 fluctuated around third in range. TSH around 2. On 75mg T3 matched the 37%, T4 38%. 100mg T4 shot to 79%, T3 drops to 31%, TSH drops to 0.57.

Any Success with Using Cytomel (Liothyronine) Alone?
After recently experiencing many negative health symptoms, that I knew were thyroid related, and undergoing many blood tests to rule out other health issues, I've have finally figured out that it was
Synthroid
causing all the problems. I've been taking
Synthroid
along with Cytomel for 3 years.
