Erfa and Levo?

Just wondering if anyone on here takes a combination of Efra and Levo and how do you find it? I take Erfa 90 but had to add Levo as my FT4 was on the low side . Waiting to see what happens.

Hi I have to take armour and T3, so similar position, my FT3 was below range originally. I take them at different times, If it was me , I would do that, a few hours apart.I know my Endo has suggested your sort of regime to some people too.. not so strange, if you think about it. However, do watch your levels for the T4 and importantly the FT3, as it could cause the FT3 to shoot up too, over range, dangerous.

Best wishes,

Jacie

Thanks Jackie. Yes I do take them apart and as you suggest I do need to keep an eye on my FT3 as when it gets to the top of the range I feel more unwell with hyper symptoms.
