Hello

I have had Hashies for about a year now. I am completely gluten free. My TSH levels hover around 4.8 so doctor won’t give me Levo. My antibodies are well out of range My CRP is just over 5. My ferritin is also way out of range. I’ve just bought some 40mg porcine thyroid tablets but only because I thought they were NDT. I now understand that they aren’t. Can anyone tell me which is the best option and where I could buy NDT. Thanks in advance.

It might be worth trying your porcine glandular tablets, some people get on well with them , some don't, but as you've got them give them a go, if they don't work for you then try NDT.

As we can't discuss suppliers on the forum I will close your post to replies so that no information is posted here. If anyone does send you any supplier details don't assume they are genuine, check with myself or another member of the Admin team to see if we have any feedback on them.

When you receive a message with a recommendation, please do not assume it is genuine.

Scammers are joining the forum on a very regular basis and messaging members with their assertions that they have successfully purchased xyz medication from zyx source.

First, check the profile of the member that sent you the message. Are they a long term member with an active forum posting history? Or are they a recently joined member with little or no posting history?

Once you have what you think may be a genuine recommendation, please message a forum admin to ask whether the admin team have any feedback on the source you've been given.

Admins are not allowed to recommend sources, but we can tell you what, if any, feedback we've received about the source you've been given.

⚠️ Don't part with your much needed money until you are as sure as you can be that the source is genuine.

Scammers often join the forum and post a 'fake' story about their thyroid journey, that includes mention of self sourcing their thyroid meds. This is to encourage members to ask them where they purchase their medication without prescription.
