My experience of T3 on keto/carnivore so far
I’ve been taking 12.5mcg a day T3 now (raised from 6) for about a month on the keto/carnivore diet. It’s been going well I’ve been exercising and getting back to reading books again which has been nice. Carnivore was quite hard so I transitioned over to keto which seemed to help a bit probably because

How to describe if you have been told you have under active thyroid in layman’s terms
I read the questions/answers with interest, but not being a numpty I want to know what is happening to my body there is talk of t3:t4 etc, what do they all mean? Can anybody advise me in sentences that explain it plainly or is there a recommended book that details what is happening and why. I realise

Ft3 295% 3 hours after dose, taking 95 t4 and 30 t3 in one go (Armour and Thybon T3)
Hey all, I am currently not splitting the above dose and I'm getting weird symptoms every single day. My ft3 is 90% of range in the morning, but it goes up to 295% after the dose. Ft4 is 54% after 3 hours and about 38% in the morning. Would splitting it help with hypo and hyper symptoms? I seem to be

Intermittent fasting (daily 16:8) while taking Levothyroxine - to control weight. Your thoughts please, Is this ok or not advisable?
I’ve read that leaving 16 hours in between eating or drinking anything other than water is an effective way for the body to burn its fat stores. Then during the 8 hour window that you do have food, you make sure you are consuming all the beneficial vitamins, minerals, protein, etc. and sufficient calories

I speed from Armour Thyroid (1 grain am 3/4 pm ) last Monday to 50 mcg Levo and 10mcg Liothyronibe am and another 10 mcg pm. Bloods done Tuesday am (last dose T4 24 hrs before and split T3 am/3:00 pm and 7:30 pm). Only water before test at 7:30 am. Results below. I’m wondering how quickly the change

NDT vs T4 T3 combination therapy
Hello everyone. Please share your experience NDT vs combination therapy. Currently I am on combo but still have symptoms (I have no thyroid). I am doing better on combo than on T4 only. I want to try NDT and see if it will make me feel better. Since both of them mainly contain T4 T3 may I expect significant

TEVA 100mcg Thyroxine
I had taken another brand for many years and have now been switched to TEVA. This happened a short while ago and since then I feel much more tired with aching joints. Is this coincidence? Overall my dose has been reduced from 100/day to 100 Mon-Fri and 75 Sat, Sun. This is addition to T3 12.5 mcg

Jaw/Tooth ache with Liothyronine
In previous posts I've mentioned my poor conversion of T4 to T3 following thyroidectomy over 2 years ago. As a consequence in January I went to a private endo and got a script for 90 tablets of Thybon Henning T3 20mcg which I got from Roseway Labs. I started taking these which I split 10mcg am and 10mcg

amoxycillin interaction with T4+T3?
Just been prescribed a week’s amoxycillin for a chest infection (3 times a day)!😞 I take first T4/T3 of the day at 7am+following T3 at 2pm + final T3 at 8pm. I can change round the two T3s to fit in with antibiotics but how do I fit the amoxycillin in without affecting the T3+T4? Confused.com!!🤓

Tests to take prior to endo appointment
Hello I have a first appointment with an endocrinologist in 12 days. I've written asking what tests he would like me to take beforehand so as to save time and money at our first meeting. No reply, unfortunately. Clearly, I should be getting MSH, FT3, FT4 and TPO would be required. Any others?

T3 dosage
I’ve been taking T3 now for about 3 weeks I started off on 3mcg twice a day for a week didn’t feel much so I increased to 6mcg twice a day. I still feel like it’s barely touching the sides. My resting heart rate is still in the late 40s early 50s. I’ve also been doing the carnivore diet so I’m probably

Shared care agreement, should I worry?
Hi all, Having completed a T4 & T3 trial with great successes, my NHS endo is soon due to approach my local GP for a shared care agreement to enable me to collect my prescription from the surgery. The surgery is in my home town, and it will be infinitely easier if this happens. Since, at the minute
