Hi all

Hope you can help.

Feeling fine at the moment on 150 mg of levo but still have bad tinnitus and also very overweight from 4 years ago when undiagnosed for 2 years.

the tinnutus is an issue as its getting louder and I want to see of t3 helps. Plus even though I've given up alcohol and walk max steps per day I can't shift any weight.

Can someone advise me on how to start taking it. I have Tiromel and 25 mg tablets.

thanks
