Which T3 is better?

[bear10]

Wondered if I need to add in more T3 and wondered which one is more recognised.

Bear10, there are various brands/makes of T3. UK Liothyronine is prescription only but American Cytomel, Turkish Tiromel and Greek Uni-Pharma are available without prescription from online sites.

I find no difference between Liothyronine and Tiromel, other than the 20/25mcg dose difference, but haven't tried others to compare.

Tiromel is very good and cheap

thank you I know I am clutching at straws but wondered if I should be on more T3 the dizzy feeling has come back and I am just so unsure. I am trying to get an appointment with my GP to see if I can go and see Professor Stafford Lightman in Bristol.

Bear, I thought you were taking NDT? Do you have recent thyroid results with lab ref ranges you can post? If you are undermedicated that may cause dizziness but there are other causes, B12 deficiency and ear infection to name two.

I am on NDT but started to get dizzy. You checked my blood tests and all a bit low. Sorry I am just clutching at straws.... haven't been able to get into see GP yet to get B12 test done.
