Underactive thyroid???
I was diagnosed recently with underactive thyroid and prescribed Levothyroxine. I wasn’t happy about taking any medication without further investigation so requested a T3 blood test. My results were T4 = 10.9, TSH = 2.82, T3 = 3.1 From this I gather that the TSH and T3 are within the normal range

Things just keep going from bad to worse with me. So sorry for the long post but I really need some help because I don't know what's going on I really don't and I don't know how to try and balance things anymore, it's all beyond me now. Near end April this year I did a full panel, rather than link

Hypo energy 'crashes' on a daily basis?
I am currently taking 125 mcg Levo and 10mcg T3 daily. I take the meds together around 2pm. Having finally got relief from so many symptoms (eg fatigue, muscle pains, zombie brain, low mood etc) recently, I am experiencing almost daily energy 'crashes'. They are quite overwhelming. I get a headache

t3 only or combination t3/t4
I’ve been working with a private gp to see if t3/t4 will work better as I appear to be a poor converter I have had some improvement in fatigue and mood symptoms but the severe muscle tension has come back, The doctor is German and she says it is common to test rt3 and if it is high to consider t3

Levothyroxine natural alternative?
My doctors have prescribed Levothyroxine and Synthroid for me in the past. However, both meds drastically increased my blood pressure to dangerously high levels, landing me in the hospital emergency room twice. (This, even though I routinely take Ziac blood pressure pills, which have kept my bp steady

thyroid trouble please help!
first time poster here, 37yo M. I have been feeling exhausted for a long time now and been struggling with constipation. We can’t find a reason for this but my GP did some bloods that showed a normal T4/T3 but a TSH of 3.7 which is the upper limit of the normal range. I have been begging to trial thyroid

T4/T3 Combi Overmedicated Help Please
I posted yesterday about my recent feelings of overmedication but didnt get many replies. Its just symptoms, not blood tests, but had palpitations, fatigue, fast heart beat, shortness of breath. Was on 150mcg Levo and 12.5 T3 daily. Also added daily selenium which might have complicated things. Cut

Got in a mess over reduction of T4
If possible could greygoose TiggerMeor anyone else offer some much needed advice. A few weeks ago I reduced t4 to 75/100 over one week (high t4) I felt very under medicated so then increased again. I then changed to a lactose free make to see if accord was causing the acid reflux. Recently

Heme vs Non-Heme Iron Supplements
Since being diagnosed with low ferritin three months ago, I've been on ferrous sulfate tablets (1 - 65mg along with 500 mg vitamin C twice a day with meals). It's been working fine (went from 11 to 45 in a month) without any side effects. However, early on, I purchased a bottle of Three Arrows Heme after

Vitamin and antibody blood test
I got my results back from my test I did on Monday. I’ve attached screen shots below. My ferritin has improved and my antibodies have always been 80 but they seem to have halved ! My vitamin d has also improved. Please can you have a look and see what you think ? And what are thyroglobulin antibodies

Problem absorbing T4/T3
Just wondering if anyone knows how you can tell if you are not absorbing thyroxine and liothyronine due to gut/stomach problems. Will your TSH and T4/T3 blood levels show you have enough hormone - i.e. will it still get into your blood but not other parts of your system. I currently have a diverticulosis
