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

Hello, I bought some three arrows simply heme iron supplement and now they’ve arrived I’m wondering when to take them to fit with my other meds / supplements.

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

I was starting to feel a little better, then........
Following the advice given in reply to my first email 3 months ago and using all the knowledge I have learnt from the questions and answers in the blog, I spoke to my GP and she agreed that I should increase my Levo from 75mcg to 100mcg. She also suggested that I should try Magnesium in the evening

Adjusting Timing of T3 Before Testing
Many of us adjust the timing of what we take for testing. My question concerns combination therapy with T3 taken in two doses. Let's say the day before testing is Monday and assume the blood draw takes place Tuesday at 8 am. Easy enough to take Levo at 8 am Monday. Suppose one usually takes T3 in

15 Years of pramipexole
58 year old male. I have an appointment with my primary care physician to discuss alternatives to pramipexole. I've taken it nightly for 15 years, probably the last 10 at 0.5 mg. I believe I have the symptoms of augmentation: earlier onset, spreading to arms, decreasing efficacy. Occasionally I have

bronchiectases and fungal infection
Hello all, I have bronchiestaces amongst other things and I’ve been coughing up small amounts of blood for a few weeks. After a trip to A&e I was given a sputum test which came back saying I had a fungal infection somewhere in my respiratory tract. Has anybody else had this? thank you

My usual supplier of T3 is out of stock. Could anyone DM me with their trusted supplier?
I am in the UK. The t3 is for my mum. She has been on it for three years, it was prescribed privately so the NHS won't cover it, but it's too expensive to buy from normal private pharmacists. Thank you.

Hashimoto’s or Graves’ symptoms or…? Help to clarify please.
Hi everybody! I’m new here. Would be very grateful for your advice. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 17 years ago. It was in different country not in the UK. I have never been on medication as I was told if my T4 level is ok I don’t need any pills. I’m now in UK for about 5 years. I’ve never seen endocrinologist

is a higher T4 now considered unsafe
hi all, I have always benefitted from a higher up the range T4. However, I have been reading recently that this is now considered dangerous and I should aim for 50% through the range. Just wondered what you all thought about this, and what range do you consider safer? Thank you

Advice - likelihood of rapidly being over medicated
Morning everyone, I'm back for your thoughts! By way updates for those who've kindly helped in the last few weeks..... Thyroid goitre confirmed on ultrasound- described as 'large' although I've no way of quantifying that description and it's pressing on my oesophagus causing some swallowing restriction
