MEDICHECKS RESULTS

[turkeydinner]

Hi I had my results this morning.

Followed advice on here early test no T4 for 24 hours bef.

I currently take 100mcg/125mcg levothyroxine alternate days, I stick to ACCORD brand.

I sometimes feel overmedicated, I drop back to 100mcg and after 2 days I'm puffy and struggle to function again

I take nutri b vits, vit C, vit D which is low as I've been forgetting to take it

Would I benefit from T3??

Do GPs prescribe it??

You can’t chop and change dose levothyroxine

You need to stick on same constant over all dose

You may find it better to take 112.5mcg every day

Can also try splitting your levothyroxine dose …..taking 50mcg waking and rest of daily dose at bedtime

Thank you I'll try 112.5 a day or split it.

Thank you again
