Thyroid Medication
Please could anyone help me with obtaining my medication. I have been on L Thyroxine Henning and Thybon Henning Liothyronine. I have been on both of these for over 15 years now and can longer get them in my local pharmacies. I use this brand because they are lactose and gelatin feee and seem to suit

Levothyroxine dose increase, advice please
hello some advise regarding increase in my levo dose would be much appreciated. My last Tsh test in February was 2.15 (0.35-4.94) unfortunately no t4 or t3 Test. No vitamin test, but my iron levels reduced back into the normal range from being slightly over range. I am currently on 75 levo, haven't been

Research for effects of insufficient Levo starting dose
Hi Quick recap: Endo started me on 25 mcg of Levo following an ultrasound showing a Hashi thyroid and increasing TSH. It has been a week now and I feel ghastly. I had zero expectations of feeling better quickly, but definitely didn’t think I would be dosing off during meetings or feeling unsafe to

Thyroid ranges for teen
Does anyone know if thyroid ranges are the same for kids/under 18s as for adults? I've got a GP appt in a couple of weeks to discuss 14 year old (with acute anxiety) results. I've only got the TSH result, and it's come back normal at 0.87 (levels 0.51-4.3). Or am I safe to assume those would be

hives after starting levothyroxine
I’ve been on 25mg of levothyroxine since 1st march. My TSH level was 5.38 and for fertility reasons I needed it to be 2.5. Levothyroxine has done the trick and I’m now 2.45. I have recently developed a raised rash all over my body that is so itchy. Does anyone have any experience of this or solutions

Splitting levothyroxine? Effect on tsh
Would splitting my levothyroxine into at least 2 doses suppress my TSH less than talking the whole dose at once?

Why is nothing ever easy?!
Just had my telephone consult with the gp re tsh 1.96 and increased symptoms again. He basically said that in his experience when the tsh was within range there weren’t any issues and he had never come across that before with patients. He said he understood what i was saying but that we should look into

latest nhs results..
They’ve only done the tsh this time (actually I think that will be the norm now), but strangely the return of my symptoms coincides with an NHS tsh test of 1.96 which is EXACTLY the same tsh result as Sept last year when symptoms returned and I asked for the test and then for a small increase from 50

Monitoring Thyroid
I have a condition which is known as an MPN . I have a haematology appointment this week when my Consultant is going to discuss a new treatment. This treatment is known to interfere with thyroid function and anyone going on it will need their thyroid function monitored as it can cause thyroid issues

Finally! 12 months to get to 100mcg
Just a little celebration really, I feel quite emotional sitting here with my Levo. 12 months ago I was diagnosed subclinical and thanks to this forum I've kept going even. Without you lot, I'd probably still be stuck on 25! Just keeping my fingers crossed that this dose increase finally helps me to

Need support with talking to GP/Private doctor. What should my next step be?
Hi. Shockingly, I have recently realised that I might be having allergic side effects to the levo I have been taking all these years. I am shocked by this. I didn't even know that Levo could have side effects because I was never told that I should be on the lookout. I have visited so many private endos
