Thyroid med change
Hi, Due to low T3 my doc added 1/4 grain of nature throid to my .75 mcg
synthroid
. Day 3 and I can't sleep, feel depressed and have bouts of anxiety. I wasn't having any of these symptoms before. Does anybody have any insight? Thank You, Sandy

Low TSH, Low T-4, Low T-3 Anwers
Metformin, 2500 mg. a day along with testosterone blocking meds like Spironaldactone, (also a fluid pill) twice daily, combined with
Synthroid
and other fluid pills, helped me to lose the sixty pounds I had gained and keeps the swelling and bloating down.

Does exercise affect TSH?
I have labs in 2 weeks after a 6 week trial of 75mg
Synthroid
. My last TSH was 1.70 while the T3 and T4 were in 33% of range.

Dosage/Labs Update and still feel horrible:
The sinuses isn't rare but has been common, especially on
synthroid
. Most importantly, I don't feel that the T3 is helping me. I have a doc that wants me to try Armour and I am hesitant to do NDT again but I don't know if I should have raised or what.

B12 level too high (not supplementing)
[Currently taking: 50-mcg
Synthroid
/ 15-mcg Liothyronine] My doctor's office called and said my levels were fine, but why would my B12 level be high if I am not taking B12 supplements? And shouldn't I have a higher level of Vitamin D?

Lost
I emailed her office and suggested I lower from 88 to 75 of
synthroid
and add my 5 mcg of cytomel back in. I just want suggestions since it seems I'm the one suggesting things and she always say ok. This can be good and bad. Should I keep just taking T4 only or try lower t4 and add back in cytomel

Switched over to NP Thyroid from Synthroid
I was previously on 112 mcg
Synthroid
. The GP is going to retest in 4 weeks. From what I have been reading seems kinda low starting dose. Is 30 mg too low to start off with after being on 112 mcg
Synthroid
? Or is this normal switching from synthetic to NDT to start low.

Synthroid levels and Urso
I never had to change
Synthroid
dosage. and then after 6 months on Urso I've had to increase dosage 3 times. GP says she doesn't find any interaction between Urso and
Synthroid
. Anyone else experience this? And I'm truly grateful for finding this forum- a real lifeline.

Dr. stopping my T3 Only prescription and forcing a referral to endocrinologist!
The irony is my Mother is who has always been on T4
synthroid
treatment-now has both osteoporosis and atrial fibrillation!!! Isn't the Hashimotos that causes all these problems and not necessarily the medicines? I am back to the viscious cycle of finding a Dr to support me.

My country is out of NDT.
My doctor is suggesting thyroxine and
synthroid
. This terrifies me!! I'm wondering if anybody could advise me, or share what I should expect, or even how to transition. I medicate myself, my doctor keeps my t3 very low. Just barely over the normal line. Because my tSH is low in her opinion.

Nothing Works! Please Help
A horrible doctor (new bc I had moved) put me on
synthroid
which was a period I do not like to discuss as I could not even get out of bed most days, clearly I do not convert well. I gained 30 lbs in 3 months, worst times of my life.

WP thyroid vs tirosint
After reacting to mylan levo and
synthroid
for over a year, was given tirosint. For the last - almost year- all the getting sick/weird stuff has stopped.

Recent Lab Results: TSH improves, T4 and T3 at standstill.
Hi. 3 months ago I was put on 25mg
Synthroid
and after 6 weeks I upped the dosage to 50 mg. These are the results of my recent lab after being on 50mg for 6 weeks. I will compare them with previous results.

High TSH before IVF?
I have been put on 112 mcg of
synthroid
. My ivf treatment starts in 2 weeks. I'm really scared of a miscarriage ☹️ I've been through 3 miscarriages and mostly because of me being hypothyroid.
