Follow up bloods from 3 weeks back
As you can see I now have my bloods back and looks like I need to increase my Thyroxine as both TSH and
T4
are and issue? My
test
was in the morning and I had not had any medication for around 30 hours. The Cortisol is also elevated. Any pointers would be good. Thanks Alex

Blood test protocol for T4 and T3 - help needed please
Hi, I’m sure I’ve read the protocol’s somewhere and I’ve searched but can’t find them. Can anyone help? I take levothyroxine (from GP) and liothyronine (privately sourced). After my trial of lio I’ve reduced my levo dose and it’s time to do blood test. I take the medications together and through

feel awful
just over 2 weeks ago went diwn to 2 mg prednisolone from 50 in august 2022. Nothing seems to be going right now. After many many years of 75 mg thyroxine daily for under active thyroid was told to cut down to 50 mg daily. Also became diabetic with Pred. & have been taking 2 500 mg metformin daily

advice needed please re iron and thyroxine
hi there, I’d really appreciate some advice. I’ve been on Thyroxine for a number of years and have been fine, I’ve just been told that I have Anaemia and have started on Ferrous Fumarate tabs 210 mg. I’ve started to feel tearful and anxious this last week and wonder if the iron is affecting my thyroid

reduced thyroxine
Hi all I upped my levo to 112 mcg based on weight and asked here about it and it was said it’s not really recommended! So went back to 100mcg daily. I woke up yesterday feeling really dizzy and not balancing well 😟 I’m wondering if this has anything to do with reduction? Many thanks

Hello, I am looking for some advice please.My hairdresser takes thyroxin and Glowwa. My doctor says I can't take Glowwa. I am confused and not sure if he is right or if he just had not checked properly. Does anyone know? Many thanks.

Has anyone felt worse when first adding T3?
Hello All, I've recently added 5mcg T3. 6 weeks later I felt awful (exhausted, brain fog) and blood
test
confirmed my
T4
had lowered so I increased my levo from 137.5 to 150 and kept the T3 at 5mcg.

how much to raise by?
Latest
test
was tsh 5.17 and
t4
17 (not taken that day) on 125 for 3 days a week and 100 for 4 days a week. Obviously I’m not very with it now. I think it has been like this for a couple of months but the worst symptoms are coming out now. I’ve gone to a straight 125 a day.

Change in tablets Thyroxine 100mg
Hi.I have been taking Thyroxine 100mg for years fairly successfully. When I picked up my last prescription, the box was still coloured orange & looked the same but wider. The tablets composition had changed - were larger & harder to digest. Since I have been taking this batch I have had terrible hot

looking for recommendations
hi Having issues with palpitations and feeling rough. Think it’s time I asked for a referral to the Endocrinologist. Been on thyroxine for a number of years, docs said too much Levothyroxine so needed to reduce from 150mg to 125 mg. Due to weight loss. Since I’ve started with the palpitations,

Aristo out of stock 😨
Finally it’s happened here too…. I’ve worked my way through the small stock of Aristo T4 the pharmacist had stashed for me. They had 17 tablets available in a broken box 😲 As recommended, I’ve gone back to the GP asking for them to specify Vencamil/Aristo on the script and reissue. Luckily I’ve squirrelled

Low tsh
My last
test
my tsh was 0.08, but
t4
was only 12.4 in a range of 10-18. I would expect my t4 to be higher! T3 wasn't even tested. My b12, vit D and folate are mid range.My Dr wants to reduce my thyroxine from 150/125 alternate days to 125.
