UK or US Functional doctors that prescribe NDT
Hi everyone, I was wondering if any of you knows of any functional doctors specialised in the Thyroid in the UK or US. Since they work with clients all over the world, it probably doesn't matter where they are based. I bet in the US where they have more competition, some have more competitive prices

Change dosage?
I’m currently taking levothyroxine - 75 4 days a week and 100 3 days a week. Latest test results are T4 17.3 (range 11-21.2) and TSH 2.43 (range 0.27-4.2). These numbers seem much more in line with similar numbers this time last year and I’m having all the same symptoms. Last year my dose was increased

Advice after recent blood test results please
I have been taking Levothyroxine for decades but only recently appreciated, after advice from this fabulous website, the correct way to undertake thyroid blood tests. After decades of iron deficiency I had an iron infusion a few months ago (therefore ferritin now high), I inject B12 regularly for Pernicious

Reducing thyroxine from 100 mcg to 75 mcg
My recent blood test is: FT4 18.4 (range 7.9-14.4) FT3 6.6 (range 3.8-6.0) TSH <0.02. My TSH always seems to be this no matter what dose I’m on. I was on 150 mcg years ago and have been gradually reducing my dose mainly because of my TSH when other results were in range. In 2023 my FT4 went above range
