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

cost of meds wondering to switch to T3 and use Levo again ..advice/experiences please
hi lovely forum folks quick question (well quick as I can make it!) My Erfa runs out in 28 days. I’ve contacted Roseway to make an appointment and have asked them this question … can I switch from ERFA to liothyronine (T3 spelling 🤔) through them, and take levothyroxine again from my GP. I await their

No increase in T3 despite asking endo.
I had my endo telephone appointment yesterday. Because of the blood test results she will not increase my dose, in fact she wanted to reduce it!Also my vits and mine blood test will be done next week, because the endo letter didn't get actioned until yesterday morning when I had a text message from

Low TSH advice and breast cancer
I’ve been hypo for 25 years . October 23, non fasted , 12 hours after last dose of Levi , annual bloods showed TSH 0.1 (0.2-6) and T4 18.9.(12-22). Recommended retest in 6 months . I saw private endo ( useless ) who did fasted bloods . TSH 4.5 , T4 16.8 and T3 3.9 Levo was 24 hours before bloods

I want to understand what happened to me.
I stopped taking levothyroxine for a month because I wasn’t feeling any improvement at all. Then, I went back on it with a high dose of 100 mcg and felt a quick improvement. I had a lot of energy, and the brain fog disappeared. But, this improvement only lasted for 24 hours. I then increased the dose

My path to combination therapy
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 25 years ago, in my mid-thirties. For almost 20 years, I took only Levothyroxine. I realise now that I was probably depressed for the whole period. Back in 2016, I decided to quit drinking alcohol. I wasn't an alcoholic, but I was drinking every day, and sometimes

test results
Hi I received these blood test results today but didn’t receive any explanation and wondered if anyone knew if they were within the normal range before I can eventually speak to a doctor. Also my FIT test came back negative but my calprotectin was raised at 65. many thanks.

GP "has concerns about results"
Had a call this afternoon from GP surgery telling me “doctor has some concerns about your blood results and needs to see you”. First thing is panic mode then I realise that I've seen most of them with the exception of thyroid function.My TSH has come back at 0.09 (0.49-5.23) but T4 is only at 18.5 (11.5

amoxycillin interaction with T4+T3?
Just been prescribed a week’s amoxycillin for a chest infection (3 times a day)!😞 I take first T4/T3 of the day at 7am+following T3 at 2pm + final T3 at 8pm. I can change round the two T3s to fit in with antibiotics but how do I fit the amoxycillin in without affecting the T3+T4? Confused.com!!🤓

Hi everyone ❤️ So I posted a couple of days ago about the abysmal treatment by my surgery in me getting new thyroid blood tests 🤦 First I should point out my surgeon in Liverpool requested these thyroid bloods because (1) , I've been off thyroid medication since January 31st (no thyroid) I had a 4D

N.I.C.E to stop the use of Lyiothronine (T3 ) prescribing
I have just heard from my local Pharmacist that she is finding it very difficult to source my T3 as the National Institute for Clinical Excellence is shortly to implement a ban on the use of T3 as they state that.... "Levothyroxine is a safe and acceptable form of therapy for those requiring replacement

Tests to take prior to endo appointment
Hello I have a first appointment with an endocrinologist in 12 days. I've written asking what tests he would like me to take beforehand so as to save time and money at our first meeting. No reply, unfortunately. Clearly, I should be getting MSH, FT3, FT4 and TPO would be required. Any others?

T3 dosage
I’ve been taking T3 now for about 3 weeks I started off on 3mcg twice a day for a week didn’t feel much so I increased to 6mcg twice a day. I still feel like it’s barely touching the sides. My resting heart rate is still in the late 40s early 50s. I’ve also been doing the carnivore diet so I’m probably
