My nails used to look like that, but they have improved greatly since being on a small amount of T3. Even the lunular are beginning to appear.

[nightingale-56 in reply to Jump1]

It won't work immediately, but is accumulative.

No, I take T4/T3 75 mcg/6.25 mcg. Maybe you need to check your vitamin and mineral levels. Others may be able to help with this.

Vitanins and minerals all really really good had them all tested several times. I definately feel warmer this evenin than i have for a long long time. T3 def havin an impact. Not uncomfortable nice 4 a change

If you have a copy of the results and the reference ranges for vitamins and minerals you should post them and ask for feedback. Optimal levels vary depending on what is being measured.

My iron and ferritin are high by the way

This might not be a good result, but we'd need to see it to be certain. Too much iron in the body is poisonous.

On the other hand, if you had high levels of vitamin B12 that could be good or bad, depending on circumstances.

Any vitamin or mineral results could be helpful.

Human bean ive posted them before. No deficiencies and not too high that they are poisonous

[humanbean in reply to Jump1]

Sorry, I should have checked before posting.

Im positiv for hashi and tsh is 2.5 ft3 4 in middle range. I wwnt and got blood check on liver today and sneaky thyroid test again.tsh t4 nurse believed me

I thought it was usually liver problems or heart, which can be a side effect of undermedication for hypo. But I believe that they also occur in diabetes and lots of other systemic problems.

[Jump1 in reply to Angel_of_the_North]

Not diabetic been tested for that. Just got a liver function test done yestersay await the results. I asked for it. No problems with the heart that i know of.
