Oh hun, sorry to hear levo didn't work same for me, I had to add 17.5 t3 over a long period of time to my levo, and the jury is still out. Gained 12 kilos on levo and inadequate t3 dose...it is quite early to say sweetheart, but at least it isnt worst! You will do well, I believe in it, you did well on Nature Throid before it was reformulated x sending you loads of hugs! I am currently adjusting, week 4+ to 112 and 17.5, hit adrenaline rushes, it is hard , but I can do it, I fall asleep at 4 am :/ xxxxxx

Hi Christinah61, how are you getting on with ERFA, or is it too early to tell? I tried those once but felt awful ...

You would think by now we would have found a thyroid medication that works , as you ,like me have tried a few different combinations , such a shame nature thyroid is not as good as it was....I am trying some different t3 but having problems getting the right dosage.. Good luck with ERFA x
