*Update* TEVA Success
Today I finally got my hands on a box of TEVA Levo! Hooray!!! š„³ My usual pharmacy managed to get hold of some in the end. They even got extra and have put it aside for me for my next prescription. Sometimes standing your ground does pay off! š It will be interesting to see if there will be a difference

Hot Sweats/Flushes
Following my push to try and increase my FT3 levels (see my post of a few weeks ago) 3 weeks ago my consultant suggested I increase my Levo from 125mcg to 137.5 mcg for 2 months as he thought this might increase my T3, he had my graphs showing my FT3 was then at 15%. 2 weeks into the increase, which

I have just read through a thread of someoneās post and saw that it said the vit d spray did not need to be 4 hours away from levothyroxine, is that correct?

Holter results, bradycardia as predicted...
So, I got my results and as I predicted, it came back with bradycardia. I'm a male, 26 yo, 74kg(160 pounds I think), caucasian. I take levothyroxine 50mg for subclinical thypothyroidism, escitalopram 20mg and valproate 500mg( for anxiety).My symptoms are classical symptoms of bradychardia, like dizziness

T4/T3 combo v T3 monotherapy
Hello, can someone fast track me towards content to considerations of T4/T3 combo versus T3 monotherapy. I am trawling Dr Google and found many references but nothing specific. Context. Good news after 4+ years struggling on Levo and a steady downward spiral in 2023 I took the plunge and self trialled

Good vitamins and supplements

New blood test
Hi all, please see my latest blood test results below, done at 9am, fasted, last dose of levo 24 hours before, ceased biotin, b12 and b complex supplements 7 days before the test.

Doctor Listened and Agreed.
Yesterday I had a return visit appointment for something other than my thyroid. During the visit I told the doctor that the blood test taken the week before after a change in dosage was useless because only TSH and T4 had been tested, and that to make any sort of sense of it I needed T3 as well which

Can years-old injuries rear their heads when undermedicated?
Hi everyone, Iām interested to hear from you if you experienced or experience pain from old injuries when undermedicated for hypothyroidism. Iām wracked with pain everyday. Itās by far my worst symptom. Whilst the pain is widespread, itās occurred to me that some of the worst affected areas are

advice please
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 9 years ago whilst pregnant. Iāve been on 50mcg since then. It was only recently that I was seeing an osteopath at my gym and we started talking weight management. He said he thought I was under medicated. Anyway, thought about it and actually I have lots of symptoms

Worsening insomnia can anyone help?
Iāve recently reduced my Levo dose because my T4 was 93% through the range and I was having palpitations. I was on 100mcg so now on 75mcg 4 times a week and 100mcg 3 times a week. Energy wise this is actually the best Iāve felt so far. Unfortunately the insomnia has worsened in the last few weeks where
