NDT dosing where insomnia is an issue
Interested to hear how others do their NDT dosing where insomnia is a big issue. I’m about to have a NDT increase (currently 4 months into treatment, at 3/4 grain) Insomnia is chronic. Horrible. Even on 20mg amitripyline, it’s still an issue. I recently tried one dose NDT at 6am because I thought

Urgent help please - feeling total despair - think I'm going crazy after stopping and restarting levothyroxine - blood results included
Hi, This won't be the full story as I don't want to to make the post too long and hard/annoying to read. It's already going to be too long. RAI for Graves around 11 years ago. Never felt good on T4 since. Normal dose around 100 micrograms plus around 12.5 micrograms a couple of times a week. Mostly stopped

Hello, I was started on levothyroxine by my GP on the 8th of January following test results that showed hypothyroidism. I had had symptoms for a while snd thought they were perimenopause, but my TSH levels were tested previously and came back ok (as shown by my July 2023 test results) T4 wasn’t tested

Hypothyroid Labs In The Pits
Long story short. My 6th Endocrinologist retired over a year ago when my labs were good. I'm back to seeing my GP for the past year for Thyroid and now my labs are in the pits. Drugs used for past 6 months: 125mcg Synthroid and 1.5 mcgs Liothyronine. (I will admit that I was using Synthroid every other

High ferritin results
Hi 👋 Latest results attached I have been on a stable dose of 1.5 grains of Armour Thyroid daily, for a couple of years now, prescribed by a private thyroid doctor. The NHS didn't want to treat my borderline low thyroid. I feel good, and have no symptoms, but I am concerned about my high ferritin

Well, I won't be multi-dosing again unless it synthetic T3 and T4. I'm at the YMCA and I'm very unhappy with the shape of my body. I gained weight around my middle. I don't think my legs look this bad. Maybe I'm in denial. However,, I would like to add T3 to my NDT if I could. I don't believe I'm going

Need info for doctor's appointment
I have been freezing cold for many years, but the situation is now ridiculous. I only take off my cardigan when the temperature outside is in the 20s. I had a partial thyroudectomy in 1976, aged 22, after carbimazole failed to do the job. I also suffer from extreme constipation. As I have been diagnosed

Found some old results
From all my test results in my bio, it is known I am a poor convertor. From recommendations within the Group back in 2016 it was felt I needed to add some T3, which my Endo at the time wouldn't do because of my severe anxiety levels and he said it would have to be dosed very carefully.

Biotin
I’ve just had a recent blood test and surprisingly my TSH has fallen. I’m on 75 of levo. Not having any symptoms of over active thyroid. I checked my multi vitamin and it has Biotin in it? Would this make a big difference- should I ask for re-test? Your Serum TSH level history The table below shows

herbs to help anxiety
people keep telling my to try ashwaganda to help with my anxiety. I have read that it can affect the thyroid and it is not recommended. I know when I took it previously that was included in a ‘rhealsuperfoods’ balance tonic powder drink along with maca root it definitely calmed me down but at the time

medichecks results help please
I had my thyroid function and vitamins result back from Medichecks and the doctors comments are overall very reassuring (great service btw). A couple I need help understanding.: My CRP HS Was high at 4.210 - I was/am at the very end of a cough/cold so assuming this could be the cause? My thyroid
