Chronic inability to fall asleep/maintain/resume sleep and electric shock sensation.
Hi everyone,Hope we're doing better today. I have been on methyl cobalamin capsules (meconerv forte) for three months now. I was on 1 tablet (1000mcg) daily. I didn't notice much improvement and the doc increased to 2 tab(2000mcg) daily. Fatigue improved but I still have chronic insomnia, anxiety, depression

B1 HDT Protocol with Sinemet
Does anyone happen to know should the thiamine be taken before, after, or at the same time as sinemet?Or does it even matter?

T4 low TSH normal
Evening, I've had more blood tests done and I'm fed up of feeling so badly every day. I've done medichecks TSH tests and cortisol. Only test low is my T4 which tbh never changed since 2016 TSH fluctuates. I had telephone appointment before my test results came back. Due to my chronic fatigue. Weight

Haven't tested since last July. Wanted to test again end of last year but pharmacies kept messing with my meds so I had to keep waiting for things to settle down for a few weeks Latest results on 125mcg Levo and 10mcg T2 split dose. Levo taken 24hrs before, 5mcg T3 taken around 4pm and 5mcg T3 taken

Help with results - what would you do?
Hello I finally got a private endo to agree to up my meds from 75mcg levothyroxine to 100 or112.5 if I felt it necessary in July 2023 allowing my TSH to fall below range, and that I understood and was willing to take the risks. My 3 pm slump was dangerous as I was fighting to stay awake on the way

Many will be aware of some of the specific pages which I link to quite regularly. But you might not have realised what else is there. Below is a copy

Hi Everyone I was diagnosed with myxoedema hypothyroidism in 1989 and have taken 150 mcg Levo ever since. I am also coeliac. My new GP has recently queried my TSH and says I have been over medicated for a long time - since 2014 my TSH has been around 0.05 and my T4 in the upper range around 18. My
