Hypo HASHIMOTOS
I was diagnosed with Hashimotos & prescribed
Synthroid
. I have recently lost my 14 yr old son in a tragic accident. I've had many issues with my health & every doctor would tell me blood work was fine.

T4 & T3 potency comparison
I seen a chart once that said under synthetics which is me,
Synthroid
brand and Cytomel generic 25 MCG of cytomel was equal to 100 of
Synthroid
, but no comparison for the 5 of cytomel i was prescribed. And then you have to factor in the % of T3 you get that is coming from the
synthroid
correct?

Erfa Thyroid obtained online without prescription
They all insist on the traditional, and useless, route of prescribing
Synthroid
, Levothyroxine, etc. Can someone please direct me to a reliable, safe source for Erfa that I can obtain online? Thank you very much for any help and support you can provide.

More test results for comment please ...
Hi All, Following on from my last post, the Dr reduced my Levo (
Synthroid
) down from 150mg to 125mg because in her opinion I was over medicated.

Cytomel (T3) only or along with NDT (T3&T4)?
How do i know if I'm to do Cytomel alone, or combine it with my
Synthroid
-S, which is a NDT comparable to Armor.

Update for all of my friends
She also insisted that I drop back down to 50 of
synthroid
once i start 5 of cytomel. My question everyone is what do you think? If my TSh was tactically at 4 on 50
synthroid
, with or without the new add in I thought I should stay on the alternating.
