Doseage Armour Thttpid
Plotting my most recent bloods into this % converter I’m thinking an increase in doseage would be a good idea. I take AT 1 grain am and 3/4 pm. Could I increase to 1 grain pm on alternate days? The Endos kick off due to suppressed TSH.

t3/t4 combo advice please
I am feeling very fed up, very low and like I can’t keep going with all this… Saw endo last month and was advised to take 7.5 t3 and choice of whether I wanted to drop to 50 or 62.5mcg levo - down from 75. I opted to stick with 62.5 levo as 50 had no symptom relief before! I started slow adding 2.5

I’m Quite Annoyed Over My Latest Blood Tests.
Three months ago my Levo was reduced because they thought I was taking too much. This week I had my blood test and they haven’t even tested T3 as last time so how am I supposed to know if it’s much better or not?. The September results were: TSH - 0.03 [0.35-4.94] FT4 - 20.1 [9.0-19.0] FT3 - 4.89 [

Low TSH, T4 but optimal T3 on NDT (22 weeks pregnant)
I'm 22 weeks pregnant and get my labs run every month. Getting treatment has been a bit messy. I was referred to an endo and went out of curiosity when I was first pregnant. But I also did my own research and read Stop the Thyroid Madness, joined some groups, etc., and learned about NDT. I felt

Any Aussies here??? Please, I need help to find a good GP/Endo in Australia!
Does anyone know of a good GP or Endocrinologist in Australia that actually knows what they're talking about with regard to thyroid/pituitary/hypothalamus function? I am desperately trying to find a doctor who can actually help me, but have had no success so far.

High T3 and T4
Low TSH points to hyperthyroidism. High T3 and T4 also point to hyperthyroidism. Your numbers aren't far off, however. Guarantee that my Dr. would be in agreement with your GP. I'd just wait and have it all retested in a few months. Also, I can tell you by experience, that anxiety could be causing

Latest reults
hi I’ve just had my latest thyroid panel results, numbers seem slightly better for antibodies but still higher than they should. Ft4 & Ft3 slightly higher than last time but still not optimal? B12 and vit D is a work in progress. Ferritin is edging out of optimal towards high end, not sure what this

Trialling T3 & T4 Low TSH
Hi i’ve been taking T4 for many years. Now taking 50mg of T4 & approx 8mg of T3. My latest blood test are back. I’m really worried my endo is going to stop me taking T3 when I am feeling much better. I’m aware of the fact that if you take T3 your TSH goes down, but he doesn’t! My results are above. Any

THS Levels
hi I have just had my annual thyroid blood test which has come back as 0.4 classed as normal. I am over 65 and taking 600mcg of levothyroxine over 7 days. My question is if my TSH levels are normal should I stop taking my meds or reduce my dosage? Grateful for any advice

Relevance of TSH vs T3/T4
My TSH varies considerably: 1.5 to 3.1 in a number of NHS test but my T4 has been more consistent between 17.4 to 19.1. In two Blue Horizon tests:TSH 1.29 and 4.7 with T4 15 and 14.5 and T3 4.2 and 4.21. So fairly constant T3 and T4 but wildly varying TSH. These results all for 75mcg dose over almost

Need advice on these blood test results - wondering if it might be hypo, but Dr's all say numbers are fine.
I have just stumbled upon this site, and am hoping that you knowledgeable people can help me out.
The short story:
I'm undiagnosed, never been on any thyroid hormones. Feeling unwell for over 2 years - fatigue/tiredness, weight gain, hair loss (decreased hair density on scalp), loss of outer third
