General questions about starting NDT
Hello lovely people, I'm back again with more questions... Just waiting on my NDT prescription to be filled by the pharmacy. It will be CAPSULES with powder inside (not tablets). It's 50mg, once a day. I've never had any thyroid treatment previously, so this is my first time trying any thyroid hormones

Misdiagnosed for 30 years !!!
well, in my last post I told how I had lost over 4 st in 12 months and my GP said it was down to my thyroid. But I couldn’t get an Endo appointment for 4 months. So I decided to see a private Endocrinologist. what he told me shocked me to the core and now I am so confused I don’t know what to do. He

Advice about recent NDT thyroid blood tests and high SHBG
Hi there! Is there any connection between high SHBG and taking NDT thyroid medication? I've been feeling better than ever on my Erfa thyroid medication and I don't feel over medicated at all, but I had high SHBG. My estradiol also seems high. I've read that one reason for high SHBG can be hyperthyroidism

The results are in, over to the judges.
I am a 59 year old, 74Kg male, with no other comorbidities except mild lifelong well controlled Asthma. The tests on 10/01/2024 where all taken using the guidance given here, of no levy for 24 hours prior and no food/drink ETC before the test. The previous tests may not have been in full compliance

Big Pharma pays the price, but some thyroid patients are still paying
Bylines has been growing hugely in coverage and influence. So good to see thyroid and liothyronine covered in this informative article. Not so much for those of us who have seen it every step of they way - but for everyone else. [i]

Am I over medicated?
My Free T4 always comes up low. I understand from this grp that this means I am over medicated. I do not feel over medicated, but am I doing myself long term damage? I currently take 45mgs of NDT & an extra 12.5mcgs of T3. (In one dose) each day. (& supplements) Thanks in advance.

NDT Thiland
Hi, I’ve been taking armour thyroid for 9 months or so now. I’m now up to 2.5 grains and the private clinic I use don’t think I’m at my optimal dose yet. I feel a lot better but the problem is that it’s very expensive. Dose anyone have any advice about getting NDT from Thailand and what brand. Thanks

HelloNot sure what these blood test result means TSH 5.1 FREE T4 11.8 T3 5.4 TPO 105 Been told by GP will retest in 3 months due to positive TPO result. Had a neck ultrasound and thyroid was swollen hence the blood tests. Does a positive TPO result confirm an auto immune disease?
