How much folate is everyone taking?
How much folate is everyone taking?I’m now currently twice a day, will be moving to three times a day. When I was injecting once a day, I was taking one 5mg of folic acid. Now that I’ve increased my injections, im wondering if I should increase my folic acid.

Anything I should be doing for auto-immune hypothyroid?
Hi there, I was recently diagnosed by hypothyroidism as GP blood test showed a high TSH level (14.69) along with the symptoms I was experiencing (general tiredness, terrible immune system and weekly cold sores). They didn't do any other tests, and I was keen to also get a baseline on my T3/T4 levels,

Question about B12 test results
Hello there, I have done two full thyroid panels with Blue Horizon, 16th months apart, the most recent being November ‘23 and I would appreciate your insight and advice. B12 and folate were low in July ‘22 so I took Thorne Basic B for about 6 months at the beginning of this year. My energy improved

TSH post levo raise - how low can you go?
Hello again, I've been on a mini trial of raising my levo by 12.5mcg / day for 8 weeks in hope of raising T3 and losing a bit of weight. Is TSH of 0.13 (0.27-4.2) too low? I feel great and weight has been going down gently. The Dr's report from Medichecks says only if I experience overactive symptoms

And again!
I just wanted to give a short (!) update and get a bit of advice. I seem to be feeling worse every day and have been extremely depressed to the stage that I haven't really wanted to be here. I had a phone call today from a new G.P. who had asked for a blood test review and she said that I have " dangerously

changing hydroxo and methyl dosage.
I’ve been taking hydroxo 1500ug one injection a day for 2 years with folic acid and no improvement. A month ago I added methyl 1500ug one injection a day with adeno and it’s been helping but as not much as I hoped my physio has noticed a difference. I feel one injection isn’t enough! I’ve now decided

Thorne Basic B, Biotin, Folate and Blood Testing ?
I was just wondering about something…I shall need to make my blood test appointment soon after a dose change so of course need to stop taking anything biotin. Along with Biotin Thorne Basic B also contains Folate, so how much difference do you think stopping TBB for a week will make to the blood test

Newest Bloods since starting T3!
Hello All!! It's been about seven weeks since starting T3, so I thought I'd check in and post the newest (Medichecks) blood results. I am so happy with the T3 addition and feel SO much better. Have more energy, a better outlook and even lost some weight. The results show that the TSH has bottomed out

GCA and hair loss
Have been on pred now since end of July 2023 - originally 60mg now tapered to 20mg. (stay on 20mg for 2 weeks). Feel fine on that dose. Will taper to 18 mg in a week Mon. and stay on it for 2 weeks, etc. then down by l0% every 2 weeks if all holds. I am losing my hair. Will taking folic acid help?

GP Consultation
Well, I had my f2f GP consultation today and I was pleasantly surprised by his reaction. All bloods were within range (?) and there was no other cause for concern although there was no T4 or T3 test, only TSH. I went ready for a battle armed with various printouts but thankfully it wasn’t needed as

Hello folks, this is me here :-) My mother had and my 3 siblings and I still share a history of hypothyroidism. Each of us takes levothyroxine on a daily basis, except my mother died a few months ago at the age of 90 after many years of slow physical and cognitive decline. I've been taking it for

Methotrexate and Folic acid
I know Folic Acid is not taken on same day and take Methotrexate around 6pm at night then Folic following day.Does everyone wait a full 24 hours before taking Folic acid. Pharmacy thinks needs to be full 24 hours but not seen this written down. Nurses have a three day wait for advice so seeing what others

Iodine in pregnancy supplement
Hi All I am trying for a baby and I have been told to take folic acid amongst a few other vitamins. I have found a pregnancy vitamin supplement however it has 150mcg of Iodine in it. I understand Iodine is not good for those with hypothyroidism and we do not need it BUT my future baby will rely on
