Accord at last.
After a tremendous kerfuffle, drove across town to collect my Accord brand, to find later a text from my practice to say that after approx 6 weeks, I was to prompt a TSH blood test! Amazing considering I was told they were ‘all the same’! Also finally got my belated Medichecks annual Advanced Thyroid

Hi, My GP has asked for advice from an endo and finally agreed to start me on a trial of 25mcg Levo. In my medical notes, it shows the message from the endo to my GP: "(..) symptoms (..) on a back ground of normal TSH 2.77, FT4 9( lower side of normal) AND FT3 4.7 which is not classic subclinical

Need help with results
Hi there! I have a sad story to tell about the last 6 months. I had a severe kidney stone infection (and UTI) in the spring. I was slowly doing better on my new thyroid medication (Erfa), but the infection caused bacteremia/urosepsis and I developed severe confusion. I had started taking my thyroid

Still so tired.... zzzzzz!
I have been taking levothyroxine since the start of November 2023 following months of me saying that there was something wrong with me.

Thyroid Madness
I'm trying to get my act together! I find it very hard, when like someone on this site said, I forget who, that there are not a lot of studies done on NDT natural desiccated thyroid hormone porcine. My issue, reliable sources, who themselves don't take NDT, seem to think it should be divided

Help interpreting results :)
Hi there, I'd be so grateful for some help trying to interpret test results. I started getting symptoms of joint stiffness, low energy, skin breakouts and generally not feeling myself, in 2021. Due to the joint inflammation in my feet and fingers, I was diagnosed with Inflammatory Arthritis, but there

TSH low
I hope someone can advise me. Had bloods done last week to check my thyroid, it hasn’t been checked for over 18 months. The doctor wanted to see me about the results my TSH was 0.5 which she said was far to low. I said what was my T4 and T 3 she said they don’t request that. I said you can’t just do

Tsh 7.09
Hello My mum is 86 & on 75mg level. She has recently had an iron infusion privately as had a ferritin of just 6. Those levels now normal I asked for a full thyroid but they don't do T3 & will have to do a fingerprick test on her. (If she agrees!) Tsh 7.09 (0.35 - 5.5) T4 16.6 (10.5 - 21)

How Do Those on T3 or Combo Therapy Navigate TSH Obsessed Doctors
After my pitiful NHS results in December ( before starting self sourced T3) my GP increased my Levo to 200mcg a day. I haven't been taking that much, obviously as I'm taking 150mcg of Levo and 12.5mgs of T3. The GP I spoke to said retest February and unfortunately my surgery have been uncharacteristically

Hi everyone, I am on 100mg Levo and 15mcg Lio daily and I feel OK. As I have an appointment with my endo soon, and doing NHS blood tests is rubbish due to the timing issues, I have just done a private blood test. I know my Endo is going to focus on my TSH which is negligible but my T3 and T4 levels
