hypertension treatments
I was also diagnosed with hypothyroidism 21 years ago and am taking medication (
synthroid
) to manage this condition as well. Has anyone tried and had success with any natural remedies/supplements to successfully treat hypertension?

AST and ALT enzyme fluxuation
The only change is my thyroid levels are off and we are working on the correct dose of
Synthroid
for that. How concerned should I be with levels rising because I assume that means my liver inflammation is increasing, doesn't it? Any thoughts/comments would be appreciated. Thanks.

TSH up after Synthroid increase
Hi all, I am wondering if anyone has had an increased TSH, lower FT3 & FT4 when increasing
Synthroid
dose.

Thyroid medication
Some time ago a GP gave me an incorrect
Synthroid
medication strength. That med. caused my right eye to protrude and turn to the right. On March 30th I'm having that corrected. Has anyone had a similar situation? That Dr. left for a bigger city. I was without a Dr.

Suppressed TSH but hypo symptoms
Cold turkey stopped levothyroxine (
synthroid
) 200mcg for 17 days in Nov 2022. Prior, felt great. Went back on 200mcg right away and had every hyperthyroid symptom, it was hell. (tsh 0.04 FT4 18 (9-19)) I have been trying to find my dosage ever since.

Any suggestions on types of b12 How far to take apart from
synthroid
? The dr mentioned a side effect of jitters. Definitely don’t want that due to anxiety anyway Any advice

Increasing NDT dose
I was taking 75 mg + 25 mcg
Synthroid
every morning. Not feelingg100% but functioning. He suggested I take 60 mg +25 mcg
Synthroid
in the morning and another 30 mg Erfa in the late evening. I tried several times but did not tolerate the evening dose. I decided to take all at once in the mornings.

Taking T3
I take 175 mcg
Synthroid
. My Endocrinologist has given me Liothyronine as my T3 is not up to par and I am symptomatic. He has given me 5mcg tablets to be taken 3 X's a day. I started slow taking 1 for 2 weeks and now 2 for 2 weeks. I would like to now take the third tablet.

When did you feel better on the right dosage of Levothyroxine?
Was on 200mcg levothyroxine (
Synthroid
) for years and felt amazing, 0 symptoms. Went off meds for 16 days, felt like crap, tsh 224 and FT4 6 (9-19), so I went back on 200mcg.

Generic Levothyroxine or Synthroid?
Synthroid
may be a brand name option I can go to, but curious if anyone has experience. Should we stay away from generic levothyroxine and go brand name?

Xeris subcutaneous levothyroxine
The trial linked XP-8121 to slower absorption, lower peak plasma and higher extended exposure than AbbVie’s oral levothyroxine product
Synthroid
PO at a comparable dose. The results have teed up further trials.

Adding T3
I posted my results last week and used slow dragons response to craft my request for a dosage increase of
synthroid
. She responded that my tsh was so low that I run the risk of becoming hyper if
synthroid
is increased..she did agree to add t3 in 5mcg and new labs in 8 weeks.

Good Evening Everyone...I would like to know if anyone else gets side effects of headaches when they get an increase of levothyroxine/

Atrial Fibrillation with RVR, suppressed TSH
I have been treating hypothyroid for 45 years - first with just
Synthroid
, then since 2015 with Levo + Liotir. I've felt improved well being since I added the Liotir drops (T3), dose split 3x/day.

Hypo symptoms returning since started on PPI
Looking at those labs, would I be safe to add 12.5 of
Synthroid
or 15 of Erfa ? I have extra of both so I could do that until my labs are due in April. Or should I ask the Endo for labs now, and wait for results before the increase. I’m also thinking of stopping the PPI.
