Do My Symptoms Have Anything To Do With My Lowered Levo?
I am getting so fed up. The doctor put my Levo down from 100mcg to 75mcg a few months ago, she wouldn’t have it that I felt better on a higher dose. I’m pretty sure I talked about this previously in a post. But lately my digestion has been bad, I am so tired in the afternoon that I’m yawning a lot

Graves Disease and muscle weakness
Hi, it’s my first time posting here and I am wondering if anyone has had a similar experience to me or is able to offer me any advice based on their knowledge and own experience. I am a 40 year old mum of two children under 10 and first noticed that something was wrong early last year when I started

Early days on T3
Good morning, I started T3 just under 3 weeks ago as prescribed by a private Endo. He started me on 10mcg daily which I took for the first week. After reading some posts on this forum I reduced the dose to 5mcg daily as I was experiencing palpitations. A further 2 weeks in and the palpitations seem

Indigestion
I have a dull ache down my breastbone which comes and goes. Although I have a mild heart murmur it has been diagnosed as gastric related and I’ve been given Lansoprazole to try. I’m concerned as one of the side effects is osteoporosis of the hip - I already have osteopenia. Is this type of issue linked

Anyone take Co Q10 and are on T4/T3?
I’m seriously thinking of adding Co q10 to my daily routine. I get migraines, and having watched many chats on the World Migraine Summit recently, it stands out as something that might help. (I’m 58, so won’t be taking it for fertility reasons). I’m not on anything that might be contraindicated with

Just a quick update, Endo appointment 👿
went to Royal Liverpool Endo dept , was hoping to see the consultant who is on TUK Uk list. Unfortunately this did not happen, the person I saw was less than helpful, see I can be tactful, sometimes. Introduced herself as diabetes consultant and she lived up to that name. The first thing she said

Light Bleeding, BFN 11DP5DT. Two days till period due and OTD… Any hope?
I’m such an idiot. I’ve had a very rough few days and today I got some very light bleeding. From my research it could easily be implantation bleeding, but my mind went nuts and straight to the fear of period, and like some possessed zombie I grabbed my pregnancy test and did 1, it came up negative :

High TSH (which keeps rising over the years) and consistently high T4 for 7 years with no major symptoms.
Hi, Over the last 7 years, my TSH has kept rising from around 5.88 and now it is at 11.9. My T4 has stayed consistently high at between 19 and 20 throughout this time. My antibodies test are normal with nearly non-existent antibodies and my T3 was normal in the middle of the range. All my other blood

Update in sustained release T3 and new paper
The recent review of treatment for hypothyroidism recommended further research to look at combination therapy. A group in Iran have done the following trial looking at sustained release combination T4/T3. Fascinating…… it suggests that daily sustained release capsules can deliver a stable T3 level over

HRT related
Hello 🌷 Please may I ask how much HRT are ladies on? Last night I accidentally left my old Evorel patch on (1 put a new one on every 3.5 days instead of the 3 day /4 day combo) and put on the new one. I realised it this morning and took the old one off. I guess it was still giving me oestrogen because

Extremely upset
Has anyone ever been told they can't have a levothyroxine increase until their tsh is over a five. I'm currently at a tsh of 1.77 with a range of 0.36 to 3.74. My free t4 is 1.01 Rage is 0.76 to 1.46. Feeling exhausted with the low free t4 but being refused even a boost from 125mcg to 137. Any reasons
