Low tsh 0.01 and low t4 12/13 even on levothyroxine
I have had bloods done and tsh is majorly supressed and t4 is low even on levothyroxine. 12/13 t4 (range 9-19) I have tingling and leg swelling daily and I'm unsure what this may be. Any advice or similar story's would be helpful

Levothyroxine linked to high blood sugar readings.
I got up this morning and planned to check my blood sugar but was wondering why the readings lately have been running a little high and just thought i would look up if my levothyroxine might have anything to do with it. I am glad i found your site, i learned a lot from here. I am on a low dose, 25mg

How to persuade TSH-obsessed Endo I'm not over-replaced (on T3-only)?
Hello, I am posting because I'm hoping for some advice for an Endo meeting on Tuesday. There is a possibility that the NHS Endocrinology team at my local hospital might just be contemplating 'widening' their approach to T3 (historically for me, a violent slam in the face 'NO! Get off T3 immediately or

lower levothyroxine
I had a blood test done in October 2023 it came back with my TSH at 0.01 (range 0.27-4.2) and my T4 was 17.9 (range 12-22) so the doctor reduced my Levothyroxine from 75mcg to 50mcg one day and 75mcg the next. In January 2024 I had another blood test done, unfortunately they didnt do my T4 even though

Levothyroxine no longer effective
Hi Folks , I'm struggling. My medication is no longer working. my Levothyroxine 100mg was working - from November 2022 TSH 0.49 shot up to TSH 7.18. February 2024 safe regions 0.27-4.2. I have no clue how this can change so dramatically I need some kind of explanation. Can someone help me.

Please help - T3 non-prescription source
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's about five years ago and have been taking levothyroxine ever since.

Stopping Block and Replace
After 8 long years I have decided to try stopping BR ( 5mg. Carbimazole and 75 mcg. Levo ) to check for remission. Just come back from GP appoint. that unexpectedly went well ( usually try and avoid them for thyroid issues) I chose a GP trainer hoping he might know a bit more about AITD. Receptionist

34, Osteoporosis and scared of drugs
Hello all So just seen my GP regarding many matters including my recently diagnosed osteoporosis in my spine (-2.5). She wants me on supplements which I’m okay about but also to try bisphosphonates which I’m very not okay about. All I’ve read about them scares me stupid. I have tremendously bad luck

T3 Timings Please
Just wondered how much space to leave in between T3 doses, currently taking 6.25mcg in the very early hours with Levo and then taking the next 6.25mcg around lunchtime/ early PM. Is this leaving enough time or too much time between doses? Not sure how long T3 lasts. I'm obviously aiming for consistent

🤷🏻♀️ Sudden jump up in T4
Morning all 😉 I have Hashimoto’s and have had radio active iodine treatment over 16 years ago so have been on Levothyroxine since. I’m familiar with all the testing and get regularly tested by my GP. I also private test occasionally to check my T3 as my local area do not test that on the NHS. I

Book on hypothyroidism as I wait for Levo to kick in?
Hi all, and thanks for having me here. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in October and started on 25mg Levo per day. Last week I saw my GP for (I think) an unrelated matter. She looked at my blood results from December (TSH 2.35, down from 4.39 in October, and T4 9.2, up from 7.9 in October) and
