Advice needed on thyroxine management
I am hoping someone can advise me about my thyroxine dose. Here's a little background: In September 2023, I was underweight and having trouble gaining weight and suffering from anxiety. I had been on 75mcg of levothyroxine daily for an underactive thyroid. I had recently developed pins and needles

t3 friendly md in the USA.
I am about to lose my t3 only doctor due to retirement at end of this year. I can’t travel but does anyone know of a MD in the US, that will give you t3 only? I cannot convert T4 at all and many, many years of trying but it goes to massive numbers of Reverse T3! thank you,

Thought on T3/T4 dosing
Hi there I'm just reading Antonio Bianco's book - I've know it's been commented on here before. I'm looking for people's views on his suggested T4/T3 dosing .

Thyroid results
Hi. I have been struggling with chronic fatigue and joint pain for almost 12 months. I have had Thyroid tested and all normal according to GP. I'm in surgical menopause and taking Testosterone, Oestrogen and Progesterone and all my levels are good for those so I'm wondering if it could be thyroid related

I sound like a witch but I'm not I'm just telling it like it is if you are not out of range for T4 and TSH they will not treat you for T3. Am I correct or not I just didn't want her waiting around thinking she's going to get what

Found some old results
From all my test results in my bio, it is known I am a poor convertor. From recommendations within the Group back in 2016 it was felt I needed to add some T3, which my Endo at the time wouldn't do because of my severe anxiety levels and he said it would have to be dosed very carefully.

medichecks results help please
I had my thyroid function and vitamins result back from Medichecks and the doctors comments are overall very reassuring (great service btw). A couple I need help understanding.: My CRP HS Was high at 4.210 - I was/am at the very end of a cough/cold so assuming this could be the cause? My thyroid
