Lab results
My labs were done 24 hours after my last dose of 137
synthroid
and 5 cytomel. My worse symptom is achy muscles and joints in my upper body and two frozen shoulders which my Endo said are not related to my thyroid. I need help interpreting these numbers. Thanks

Switching to Naturethroid
I talked to doctor about switching to nature throid from 125mcg
synthroid
, after discussing it with another nurse practitioner who helped me realize I was still having hypo symptoms. I now have (8) 48.75mg and (30) 81.25mg NT tabs.

Overmedicated on Armour Thyroid?
Before Armour I was taking 75 mcg of
Synthroid
and 10 mcg of T3 split into two doses. Am I overmedicated? I'm feeling very tired and moody, lacking motivation and confidence (among other physical issues). Have been on Armour for about 2 months now.

Canadian thyroid clinic closed
Ronald Matsusaki decided TSH levels alone were not enough to determine an accurate diagnosis of thyroid disease & that some patients felt better on desiccated thyroid than
Synthroid
. How very dare he, eh?

Hypothyroid 2017
I switched back from naturethroid to
synthroid
and am not regulated yet . I had never had shallow breathing or air flow problems until now and wondered if anyone had any help or new information about this. I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and the shallow breathing makes me feel so nervous.

Actavis v. Forest Armour Thyroid
I have been on Armour thyroid for 10 years after taking
synthroid
for 3. I had a horrible time on
synthroid
. Armour was truly life saving for me. But 3 months ago my 90 day prescription refill came from Actavis instead of Forest. I noticed I was getting tired easily about mid-April.

Naturethroid - where to buy/get
I have just moved back to the UK from the US and am on
Synthroid
& Naturethroid. After 8 years of struggling to get balanced with every combination of Levothyroxine,
Synthroid
, Armour, Liothyronie and every dose from 75mcg to 150mcg, I have FINALLY been stable for almost 1 year.

Extreme lightheadedness
I have been on
synthroid
, but nothing has seemed to help. I've found the lightheadedness gets worse when I eat pasta and breads. I tried gluten free for 9 months and no change. This lightheaded feeling has been constant and I haven't felt normal in 5 years.

Peculiar Recent Labs
Seeing the doctor this Saturday, most likely will stay on
Synthroid
100mg and repeat labs in 6 weeks. Will work on diet and exercise and avoid alcohol to help my liver, which I've read plays a big role in T4 to T3 conversion.

Neck and chest palpitations when lowered thyroid dose
For 30 years I've been on
synthroid
(levothyroxin) ; most of those at 125 mcg. My doctor told me to lower it to 115. For 2 weeks now I've been on 115, and in the past week started have major palpitations, mostly in my neck, and vibrating to my chest.
