T3 Trial continued
Medichecks 20 March 2024 History:
Hypothyroid (after RAI in c2004)
Spent 2023 improving folate, B12, Vit D although ferritin still poor. Came off PPIs and now take Gaviscon twice daily. Gastritis issues ongoing though. Officially a poor converter (dud DIO2) so really wanted to try T3 Gluten

Is an Alkaline Phosphate level of 71 (UK) good?
Is an Alkaline Phosphate level of 71 (UK) good? Was put on steroids to deal with newly diagnosed PMR and they fell by 20 units in 2 weeks!

Levothyroxine stopped postpartum
Hi all, new here 👋December 2022 I was feeling pretty rubbish, really low mood, spaced out and just generally unwell. I went to my GP and my bloods came back borderline underactive. In February I found out I was pregnant, during routine bloods I had a phonecall from the hospital saying I needed to

Advice on recent blood tests
I've included the last three sets of blood tests, all done at the same lab, fasting in the morning. Question is whether an increase in T3 is warranted. My new Endo thinks I can go from 15mcg to 20mcg which will help with my fatigue. I have been on 15mcg for a few years and was doing well, but fatigue

Why all going wrong always with me 😭
Today is my 10dpt of 5dt. Did the urine pregnancy test and showed up negative😭. I used the strips that can measure hcg more than 25u/ml. Not sure whether hcg quantity was there to detect or I’m not pregnant. But this time I was confident the way my symptoms showed up and expected the implantation

BFN confirmed advice please 🙁
I persevered in hope after my BFN last Sunday thinking it was too early and did another 3 days of tabs and pessaries to take me through to the full 14 days but did a blood test pregnancy test today and still shows BFN so that’s our third icsi round over for us. Not sure if the doc will be able to shed

High Leukocytes in urine
So blood tests have come back as above and I have a feeling this has been going on for some time, but not actually had a urine sample test in the past few years. In fact the only urine test was because of discharge from vagina, thought to be thrush which is now being treated. So thrush can cause

Berberine and iron?
Hi, So glad to have found this wonderful forum! I am a 74 year female who recently started taking pregabalin for RLS. I just got back my ferritin level and it is 12. I will order some iron and would like to know how many mg is a good dose. Also, I started taking niacin 500mg daily for my cholesterol

Recent medichecks results
Wow! Did medichecks test and for the first time in all the time I’ve been testing my TGAb were in normal range (110 with range under 115). TPOAb within range as usual. TSH is still suppressed (no surprise) CRP is .983 despite me having been a bit under the weather recently and recovering from a broken

hypothyroid to hyperthyroid
I’m currently on Liothyronine only 40mcg daily. My endocrinologist sent me for a blood test 3 weeks ago and I got a letter from her today saying that my T3 is high indicating I am overactive. She never supplied me with any figures on this letter so I have no idea what my levels are now. She has suggested

Have I cardiac haemolytic anaemia or haven't I?
I have been borderline anaemic for some years and it seems that my TAVI a year ago and the consequent medication may have pushed me over the threshold. On May 31 a haematologist wrote to my GP following tests on
March 5
to say that "it is likely [that I have] cardiac haemolytic anaemia". But

Taking Biotin
Hello, As part of my daily suppliment intake I take the full range of B vitamins (B1-12), which includes 50mcg biotin. As I understand it, this is less than the 20mg which would affect my T4 levels, is that right? And at this dosage do I still need to stop taking this particular suppliment 2 days

Opinions Please
Hi I have just had my results from Medicheck. I followed all the recommendations, 9am test, no Levothyroxin for 24 hours, no Biotin for a week. I am currently taking 75 mg Levothyroxin, Vitamin D3, Methyl Folate & Thorne Basic B Complex. I am considering adding 25 mg Levothyroxin 3 times a week

Struggling, should I try increase now?
Good morning, Following my post last week, I am now really struggling with hypo symptoms which I think is more to do with reduction of the levo than addition of T3. I didn’t want to rush adding extra T3, have now been on 2.5 T3 for 8 days with levo (87.5x3 & 100x4 days) as I react so badly to changes
