Hi everyone. After almost 3 years of thyroid ups and downs - I was fluctuating between hyper and hypo almost daily! I am at last starting to feel somewhere near ‘normal’.
I am on block and replace of 40mg Carbimazole and 100mcg Levothyroxine (changed from 75mcg 4 weeks ago) daily. I am also on 4000 units Fultium D3 and 5g Calcium Carbonate daily too and 2.5mg Bisoprolol.
I take the Levo at 4.30am, when I get up. 20mg Carb and Bisoprolol an hour later and Vit D and 2.5 Calcium 3 hours after that. The other Carb and Calcium at 8 in the evening.
This all seems to be working for me at the moment.
My question is that I am due to go into hospital on Friday for a 6 hour operation on my foot/ankle. So nil by mouth from the evening before. I have to get there for 7.30an, not sure what time the op is though.
I’m really dreading changing the times of my meds as it seems to have taken such a long time to get to the point of not feeling rubbish all the time!
Does anyone have any advice about when would be best to take my thyroid meds.....or indeed whether changing things for one day will alter how I’m feeling at all?
Thank you so much.
