Endo consult..... confused 😕
I had my endo consult yesterday, phone consultation, and was literally on the phone for just over...... 8mins! Felt like he couldn't get off the phone quick enough. I was surprised tbh as he is normally really good and this is the first phone consult I've had with him as he's normally f2f. I asked about

I am reducing my dose to 75mg as per previous post (TSH 0.035 0.27-4.2T4 21.5 12-22 and T3 4.4. 3.1-6.8) I was wondering about my supplements and what I could take to help. I have restarted my Vit D300+K2 spray. Inflammation CRP 3.07 <3 Ferritin 230 30-332 Folate

Tirosint - can anyone advise how I can find out if this brand is available in my area?
I am struggling to access lactose free Levothyroxine at my GP surgery’s pharmacy and have read that Tirosint has fewer excipients than most brands of T4 and wondered if anyone could advise me the best way forward for accessing this brand/or other similar brands? Many thanks.

ferritin level suddenly jumped.. can this happen??
hello forum friends. I went to my gp last week and requested a referral for an iron infusion. I said I’d pay for a private haematology initial consultation if necessary. he’s referred me via nhs but I had to have up to date iron tests.. My ferritin mid June was 32. I had been taking three arrows

Do I have scope for an increase?
My last results for T4 & T3 are above - I'm wondering if I could benefit from a small thyroxine increase... currently on 150mcg T4 and 12.5mcg T3 daily. I'm 25 weeks pregnant and struggling with low energy. Want to be in tip top condition for the birth as I had a long one last time and I believe my levels

BP normal after liothyronine reduction
For a number of reasons and with agreement of my endocrinologist, I reduced my liothyronine from 15mcg a day to 10mcg. I also take 100mcg Levo daily. I’ve been on the reduced dose over 4 weeks. I have terrible anxiety about having my bp taken. I monitor it at home and it usually starts high, so I meditate

Taking NDT abroad?
I’m going on holiday to the Canary Islands for our first family holiday abroad. Will there be any issue taking my Thyroid-s with me and should I put in hand luggage or case? Thanks everyone!

Interesting paper
Apologies if this has been posted somewhere before. This is an American paper looking at Canadian policy, but as a T3 only patient, and as I still have issues now and again (like this week!) I found the content very interesting. I’m actually now wondering whether I trial 60mcg split into 3 rather than

Advanz/Mercury Pharma Liothyronine - Out of Stock
For those of you who are taking the above brand of T3, apparently Alliance Healthcare is the sole supplier of this particular brand of T3. I telephoned Alliance and there is a problem at the moment regarding distribution. It's stuck at the main depot waiting to be delivered to other smaller depots

T3 supply issue?
Is anyone else having a problem getting their NHS prescribed T3? I usually have Mercury Pharma or Morningside, I can’t take any with mannitol so that’s Sigmapharm and Viatris. My prescription has been with my pharmacy for over 2 weeks and they keep getting issued with Viatris and they can’t return them

So after your great advise I have managed to privately source t3 medication and increase my dosage. As I only have lio tablets of 25mg I now take 6.25 in the morning and 6.25 in the evening. I still take 100mg Levi. I have added my new results. Please let me know your thoughts. I’m seeing yet another

Struggling With Side Effects on Combi Therapy
I've been on combi therapy since December, I source my own T3. I did feel an improvement in energy, fatigue levels etc. However in the last few weeks I've been struggling with side effects like sweating. I know that we've had hot weather but the sweating seems totally disproprtionate, its not just glowing
