Over medicating
I've recently had some help from the great people on here regarding my thyroid problems, which I am super thankful for but I think I need more. I've mentioned previously the horrible anxiety/restlessness/claustrophobia type symptoms I've had for a few weeks now and recently had a private blood draw to

RLS in legs and arms
RLS in legs and arms for 3 years. Tried Mirapex, Gabapentin, Pregabalin which all made me feel horrible so discontinued. Tried Acupuncture, Homeopathic, Naturopathid remedies. All seemed to work for awhile then not. Yoga helps as does walking at night when I cannot sleep because of the RLS. Only get

Reverse T3
If I am taking T3 (Liothyronine) every day, would a Reverse T3 lab test give me any reliable information? Thank you in advance for your answers.

Triiodothyronine
Hi is Triiodothyronine the same atomic structure as liothyronine and depending how many different atomic ways are there of structuring a liothyronine molecule with the atoms needed and how many different spellings of liothyronine or something similar have people come across and are there any good books

My drs reduced my levo and now I'm having a mare.
So I've been suffering with swelling and pins and needles recently and my dr has said it must be my thyroid He's reduced levo from 100mcg to 75mcg. My t4 has gone from 13 to 11. The edema is worse now.. However my testerone has gone from normal 0.8... range 0.3-1.9 to 2.5!!! Does anyone know why

At A Loss
Hi, I've been Hypo/Hashi's for 20 years now. Completely GF/DF/EF/SF for just about that long. I did so well on NDT until the pig flu debacle years ago, then Armour and the other NDT's stopped working. I currently take only T3 for about 4 years now. I was taking 62.5 mcg split throughout the day. I

MMA Urine Result
Good morning! I recently had an MMA Urine Test and the result came back as <30. I thought over 3 was indicative of B12 deficiency. Why is there no specific number? What does less than 30 actually mean? Has anyone else had a result reported like this?

Hypo with Hyper results!
Hi All and good to meet you. Had a thyroidectomy in 2022. Just had a blood test with TSH - 0.2 miU/l FT4 24.5 pmol/L On levothyroxine 125mg for 4 days and 100mg for 3 days. Any idea why this looks like hyperthyroid? Thanks for any advice.

6 month old chronic cough
My 6 month old baby has had a cough on and off for the last 4 months . Back to the gp various times and three courses of antibiotics yet this still has not fully gone! Been referred to pediatrics and gp said this may be the start of asthma but hard to diagnose due to his age. I’m really getting anxious

More test results to understand
I have now seen an endocrinologist and had another set of tests. My TSH is not measurable at < 0.02, my FT4 is within range at 20.9 (11-22.7) and my FT3 is 5.9 (3.5 -6.5), much higher than it has ever been before. My previous results on 15/04 were TSH 0.02, FT4 23.6 (12-22), FT3 4.7 (3.1-6.8). These
