Synthroid
I am on
synthroid
for so many years I’m not sure if it’s working right or not. I’ve lost unintentionally lost a lot weight, I have muscle weakness, soft nails, and a hard time sleeping.

Synthroid

Help, need your help
Do I need to take a higher dose of
Synthroid
or a lower dose of
Synthroid
. I can’t remember how that works. My T3 and T4 are within normal ranges.

But, I do see that this can affect osteoporosis and yes, my bone density has been going down (I am 77) and I am wondering if this long time on
synthroid
would have made this difference. However "I" discovered the real problem.....

cytomel and food
this is likely a silly question, but do the same rules apply to cytomel as
synthroid
when it comes to taking on an empty stomach? My
synthroid
bottle has a warning on it about not taking it with iron or magnesium and taking an hour away from food or drink. My cytomel doesn't have the same warning.

Looking for suggestions
Should I push for
synthroid
and will it help control the size of my thyroid. Or should I leave well enough alone. Tia

thyroid issues and a fibs???
I have been hypothyroid most of my life and have to take
synthroid
, due to a partial thyroidectomy in my twenties. I am now 69 and have recently developed a fibs. I also might have apnea; am getting a sleep study done soon...... Are either of these conditions related to a fibs??

Needing advice/suggestions re tweaking NDT
So, I’m presently taking 90 Erfa + 25
Synthroid
, all at once upon waking. I need to make some changes because I’ve lost half the hair on my head, gained 7 lbs and can’t loose the weight, diet has not changed. Been on NDT for the past 2-3 years, previously on
Synthroid
+ Cytomel.

Synthroid

Synthroid
with Cytomel, Erfa, Erfa with
Synthroid

skin itchiness, hives & Hashimoto thyroid
I was on Levothyroxine 50 mcg , switched to 50 mcg
synthroid
, brand name three weeks ago, itchiness little better on
Synthroid

I am taking
synthroid
(50 mg) for about 15 years.......after doing my own research there is an effect on bone density. I am 77 and fell and broke my wrist and as I looked at my dexa chart, the bone density has gone down and I had osteoporosis.

New Labs
Finally getting better. 2 months ago switched to Tirosint from
Synthroid
. Have tried NDT and also adding t3 over the years but became hyperthyroid with double vision. Looks to me that I’m not converting T4 to T3. Finally able to start to read and think straight again. Please any suggestions.

Followed advice here, now need help with understanding results
I’ve also come to know that I’ve probably been on too low of a
Synthroid
dosage for far too long. I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s since 2005 or 2006. I had a goiter on my parathyroid and had surgery to remove it (half of parathyroid).

Increase in Synthroid Dose Worse Before Feeling Better?
I suspsect I've been undermedicated since they dropped my dose after thyroiditis from covid in 2021 which sent me in the hyper/less hypo direction (had to cut
Synthroid
dose in half for months). Just curious if this is indicative of needing a dose increase.
