Endo appt on Thursday - new blood test results after 9 months on Erfa (it was going so well...)
I was diagnosed with an underactive thyorid in 2008. After being on levothyroxine for years, I paid to see a private endocrinologist and switched to Erfa (NDT) in Feb 2016. Had last load of blood tests in May and was feeling pretty good, taking 120 mg of Erfa a day. Now am due for a six-month check-up

Ignorance
Hello, I have DRY AMD, I was diagnosed last year and still find it very frightening! I have tried to do my own research and every where I come across the same statement. "If AMD is diagnosed in time, then with the right supplements and change of life style," (in other words, getting as healthy as you

Question
I seen my thyroid doctor today I asked her if I should start selenium and zinc because I'm really hypothyroid and my numbers aren't budging. She told me no not unless it's a very tiny dose in a multivitamin cause it could affect the way the thyroid is being absorbed. Has anyone ever heard of this?

Zinc/ veins
I have varicose and spider veins. A doctor suggested taking zinc, which constipated me. Does zinc really help with veins?

Help with blood test results, please.
I had my blood tests done last Friday (last blood tests were done back in April this year). Is it possible to get the results on the same day, even though I was told that it would take at least a week before they were ready? My TSH, which was 0.01 from this April , suddenly went up to 13.25miu/L [0.34

Thyroid?
Normal Ranges: TSH 0.3-4.5 FT3 3.1-6.8 FT4 11-22 My FT3 never changes. I have managed to bring my TSH below 1 (at last) as a general guide and also as an actual known point where I was before illness (Subacute Thyroiditis). I will write my latest results (19/10/2017) in a bit below. During

Normal TSH and T4 but low T3 - still have hypo symptoms
Hi everyone, I'm looking for some advice. I have been on Levo for 2 years now and my TSH and T4 are currently in the right range (TSH 0.61, T4 15.0) but I've been feeling progressively more and more symptomatic (depression, weight gain, cold, insomnia, tiredness) for a few months. I decided to order

Help with NDT / T3 dosing please, and ferritin!
Hi there, I'm 49, and was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s around 2014/15. I took thyroxine 50mcg for about a year, which didn’t help much, then increased to 75mcg thyroxine plus 10 - 20 mcg T3 per day (seems I don’t convert too well) I was actually feeling pretty ok on this dose, though not quite my old self

Adrenal support for high cortisol?
Can anyone tell me if it would be appropriate to take Adrenavive (or a similar product) if you have high afternoon and evening cortisol – or is this kind of adrenal support only appropriate if you have low cortisol? I have been trying to lower my cortisol for over a year now. Unfortunately adaptogens

Zinc Deficiency
Haven't tested for a long time but with the SIBO going on and not being able to absorb the nutrients I am eating I thought I would check my zinc again. It's low but not that low is it? 10.1 (11.5-20). Just had a little read and apparently it's common with thyroid disorders and obviously not helping
