Hypo for years and never felt well
I'm ashamed to say that although I had a sub-total
thyroidectomy
25 years ago I have not researched things properly until now. Every now and again I looked some things up, felt it was hopeless because nhs didn't want to know and gave up again.

Changing to T3- more Iodine needed
Hallo everybody, I had a
Thyroidectomy
1996 and was for long years ( under) substitute with T4. Recently my health deteriorated further and I decided to give T3 a try.

Bad taste in my mouth
I've got a bad taste, almost metallic, in my mouth that developed 6 weeks after a partial
thyroidectomy
. Could this be the cause?

T4 way out of range.
I had a partial
thyroidectomy
in December 2008 and a papillary cancer was found after surgery so thyroid suppression is the plan but the Levothyroxine medication has not managed this yet. The levothyroxine started at 300mg in 2009 2075mg in 2012 and now 250mg 2 months ago.

I'd like to find a reliable T3 source - please.
Having had a total
thyroidectomy
in 2011 I found getting back to good health very slow, eventually I was prescribed T3 and life got better. Sadly, economics dictates that T3 is no longer available on the NHS. Can anyone here help me with a relatable route of how to obtain T3.

Latest Results- GP wants to see me.
Good Afternoon All, I have post
thyroidectomy
hypothyroidism and 2/3 months ago hit an all time low - I put this down partly to a change to Teva brand levothyroxine tablets but most likely undertreatment.

New Blood Test Results (01/09/2017)
I am hypothyroid (post
thyroidectomy
in 1980) and take 100 mcg and 75 mcg Levothyroxine on alternate days. Have been feeling so ill for the past 3 years, and after getting a little better after starting the B12 treatment I am now feeling absolutely dreadful!

I had a
thyroidectomy
when I was around 30. I am 48 now. I control my my diabetes with diet and exercise. I had my blood sugar in normal ranges up until a few days ago when my Dr. lowered my T4 and added 5mcg of T3. My labs showed my T3 was a little low.

Having a nightmare with Hypocalcemia! Desperate for some input!!!
I had my full
thyroidectomy
3 weeks ago tomorrow. Since that, I have had terrible trouble with calcium levels. I don't seem to be able to maintain them at all! I am prescribed Sandocal 1000 2 tablets twice daily (although I usually take around 8 a day).

Gravelly voice since surgery
I have recently had a right sided
thyroidectomy
and am now on Levo as I have been diagnosed with thyroiditis. I was started on 25 mcg of Levo but this has quickly been doubled by the endo I have just seen.
