T4 how long it lasts in the body 🤔
Hi everyone ❤️ Quick question, I started on T4 vencamil 12 mg on Monday afternoon (8th April) took Tuesday, Wednesday, dose 12mg then found out gp botched the thyroid bloods 😡 I posted the whole saga, so not going to get into that. So how long will these 3 days of T4 12mg take to leave my system?

Confused about folate

I have also been taking Thorne Basic B complex. Levothyroxine 100/112.5 alternating. What are the issues and

Still on 50mcgs Levo and symptoms returning…
Morning everyone, It’s been a while since I last posted; And no surprises but I’m still on 50mcgs with symptoms I had before I was diagnosed returning. My GP refuses to increase because my last blood test done in January showed my FT4 at 19.4 and he said he doesn’t want it to get any higher than that

Why does Paul Robinson insist there’s no such thing as adrenal fatigue and T3 will fix low cortisol. It certainly hasn’t in my case .
I’m currently using armour thyroid at 2 grains and feel bloody awful. Same old same old symptoms I get when I try to increase Levo or Levo/t3. My adrenals suffer. I know it’s adrenals because I’ve been doing this for almost 5 years now. Really surprised with his info/advice which makes me doubt everything

Advice on raising NDT
Following on from my post on 26/02/24, my symptoms got worse (increased number of anxiety attacks and unable to cope with pain in head/neck and upper back) and the GP didn't have any ideas, so I saw a thyroid specialist recommended by thyroid UK in April.

Jaw/Tooth ache with Liothyronine
In previous posts I've mentioned my poor conversion of T4 to T3 following thyroidectomy over 2 years ago. As a consequence in January I went to a private endo and got a script for 90 tablets of Thybon Henning T3 20mcg which I got from Roseway Labs. I started taking these which I split 10mcg am and 10mcg

Hi everyone, My first post here. I’d be interested in opinions on my most recent Medichecks results. Levels have been a little erratic in the last couple of years with the smallest possible dose changes (+/- 25mcg per week). I also have IBS. I’ve been in the hypothyroid game a long time so I’m very

Help please with Latest Blood Results
Hi all, My latest thyroid bloods have just been made available and would appreciate some advice on what they might mean in terms of medication and supplementation changes. As my T4 has been too high with sub-optimal T3, there were mixed opinions on whether I should just reduce my T4 or reduce it and

Help interpreting results please
Having been on a combination T3 plus levo trial for a year, these are my latest results. I am on the trial because my last results indicated I am a poor converter. I was knocked back from taking 100mcg levo to 75mcg by a doctor who doesn't know me when my TSH lowered because I was newly on T3. Of which

Banging my head against a brick wall!
First, let me start by saying I've being reading post after post and this forum seems very well informed, helpful and respectful. My wife and I have been looking for answers to her health condition, which I believe, is Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism, for nearly 10 years! I've taken on the role of researching
