Supplement timings with Levo
Hi all, Could anyone recommend supplement timings for me? I am getting confused with what conflicts with what. I take my Levo between 6 and 7am, and do not want to move it to taking it at night for various reasons. Breakfast 7am to 8am. I am taking; Iron B complex Selenium Magnesium Vit D Berberine

UPDATE: RLS, magnesium, calcium and hard water
Hello everyone, wanted to share my experience/thoughts. I'm a 58-yo female from the UK. I've suffered from RLS for around 20 years. I've never tried any prescription meds for this (the medications all sound quite dodgy to me as they seem to lead to dependence, and don't treat the root cause, which seems

latest bloods
I’m on a journey with t3 it’s taking a while. Latest bloods reflect 15mcg taken in one dose and 50mcg levothyroxine I think I need to increase levo but on 75 I was slightly over medicated I felt. A reply on here suggested 62.5mcg as middle road which makes sense to me but pills are tiny and crumbly

A great site!
I have had thyroid diagnosed 14 years ago. My mother had Hypothyroidism and my younger brother developed Graves disease although now Hypothyroidism. I have been on 100 dose all that time. Reading items on this site has been so informative - and explains such a lot. My GP practices never ever mention

Why ?
Parkinson's is well known for a loss of manual dexterity. Why then do they keep prescribing me these vile little blue vitamin D capsules that are in a foil that is more of a launch vehicle than a storage solution and when I do get my fingers on one they are slipperier than a greased politician? Is it

Cofactors - B complex?
should I be starting on a B complex? I had iron infusion end of May and have been on EOD B12 injections since then. I am also taking folic acid 5mg every day and a spray vitamin D & K. I have been reading that some people take a B complex, but the one I saw also has folate in it and don’t want to

New blood test results after 2 months on Levo
Hi, I posted a while back before I first saw a private GP and was put on 50mg of levothyroxine. Weeks 1-3 or there abouts I felt that things were going well. I felt rested after a nights sleep for the first time in years, increased mental acuity, diminished itching of the skin, decreased thirst,

Vitamin D and Magnesium
I've got low vitamin D and one of my symptoms is severe anxiety and panic attacks. Not sure if these are related. Someone suggested taking magnesium alongside vitamin D to help with the panic and anxiety. Has anyone had any luck with magnesium citrate helping with anxiety?

Background I was diagnosed with PMR in June 2024. Fortunate in having very supportive GP who quickly started me on 15 mg Predisolone which brought about dramatic improvement. Dose has been reduced to 14 mg after 1 month. GP plan is to reduce by about 1mg a month, depending on monthly blood test results
