Heart palpitations
I was diagnosed 2 months ago with an under active thyroid (had to ask the pharmacist what medication was for) just told to pick up a prescription 20mg Levothyroxine and then told to get blood test in 2 months time, that was it! Had the 2 month blood test done today and should get results tomorrow,

Hypothyroidism vs Blood Pressure
Hi Community. Would anyone have any thoughts: since I have had my Thyroid removed 1 year ago and am taking Levothyroxine, it seems my blood pressure is creeping up. Would this be an indicator of incorrect dosages, or type of hormone replacement. Getting to see an endocrinologist is difficult since I

Advice please on blood results please - confused - too much levo?
Hi everyone. It's taken me a while to get it together to write this post and I apologise in advance for its length. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in May 2023 and since then had regular blood tests and given very small increases in Levothyroxine from 25 up to 100 ug in April 2024. My June 2024 blood

How to manage liothyronine and exercise
Hi everyone, it's been a while since I last posted. I'm now on 87.5mcg Levothyroxine plus 15mcg liothyronine split : 7.30am 75mcg Levo plus 5mcg Lio, then 1pm 12.5mcg Levo plus 10mcg Lio. This has been working well for me the last few months. I was able to go on holiday and stroll round cities everyday

Anyone tried this when increasing dose
Has anyone increased levothyroxine from 75 to 100 mcg but done this by splitting dose throughout day .I thought if I took 75 and an extra 25 mcg every few days i will eventually get to 100 which is the dose I am trying to get to

Can levo cause low FT3?
Hi I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s, suspect both for decades but never tested/ treated until 2 years ago. I also took private tests at the same time and whilst my TSH and FT4 were both around 8, my FT3 was optimal. I was put on levo by GP and titrated to 100mcg but last autumn got worse, (also privately

T3 update
Thanks to everyone for responding to my first post about starting T3. After feeling awful on 5mg twice a day with 100 levo I decided to up it to 10mg twice a day. My mood lifted, headache went away and I have more energy and motivation. However, I seem to be having problems getting to sleep as if I'm

Is it normal to get symptoms (like headaches) after a dosage increase of levothyroxine?
Apologies, it's me again! I just posted 4 days ago asking if I should get an ultrasound (I will ask for one - I've booked in a F2F GP appointment and will push for one then!). I went up to 75mcg of levothyroxine on Saturday, on the same brand tablets (I'm just taking 25mcg x 3 now), but since then

curious any hypothyroid diabetics experience out there?
22+ years of both Hashi and diabetes (Type 3c)…Gp has cut my levo from 100 to 75, and I’ve kept the T3 (5x3) as he is convinced that my high HR is from ‘overmedication on levo’ ( long story involving 4 1/2 years long covid)…felt obliged to take lower dose to shut him up and get referred to correct drs

thyroid + anxiety
After 3 years of taking levothyroxine (+ tiny bit of cytomel) I went to see a private endocrinologist. I have always been an anxious person but with levo it’s through the roof. He said my anxiety has nothing to do with thyroid and he prescribed an antidepressant. I know my anxiety is from before levo
