Hi everyone, I haven't been on in a while, there was a big delay in getting my T3, postal service on strike, but thankfully it arrived. I won't received them until Christmas, my friend is coming to me for Christmas and is bringing them down to me when he comes. So I will be starting my T3 then. I know

Worried about TSH levels :( 0.04mlU/L
I am taking a small 3mg of T3 with a private prescription and my NHS endo has said, this prescription is causing my lower TSH - but that feels like I'm being gaslight again. I'm feeling soo fatigued and stressed trying to get it sorted. I know I need to my levels on the lower side due to previous thyroid

Going the right way at last - take 2
Hello everyone I have just received my most recent set of results after a dose change about 10 weeks ago. I am now on 50mcg Levothyroxine and 25mcg Liothyronine. I take the T3 when I get out of bed (all in one hit) and the T4 before I get into bed. This is working for me, I feel better than I have

High prolactin levels
Hi! For some background I've had 2 laps for ovarian cysts and the latter one found endo which was removed 7 months ago... However the pains have started again and after a scan have found a 3cm cyst in my right and 2 smaller on left ovary. I've been sent for blood test to also see if I have PCOS. They've

Thyroglobulin antibodies test
I tested for thyroid markers recently.I was already diagnosed last summer with hypothyroidism and am medicated with Levothyroxine, so the values of TSH T4 are now in the control range with T3 low borderline. However, anti Tg came positive at 570IU/ml which I understands suggests autoimmune underlying

Diarrhoea and thyroid hormones
Not a great topic but needs must! I'm under investigation for gastro issues, am waiting for a referral to a consultant hopefully soon. I may have an inflammatory bowel disease or (I really hope not) bowel cancer - or something else, although infection ruled out. I have very high calprotectin levels

Next step in solving the mystery of my burning feet, but need a little bit of advice
Hi all I’m in need of some more advice. As suggested, I’ve tried raising my vitamin levels since Nov 2023 and although not perfect, they’ve gone up. I’m still having burning in my feet so decided to go to a consultant. Below are my most recent bloods. 7th Feb 2024 Medichecks Blood tests

At home pregnancy blood test BFP
Hello, Our clinic ask us to do an at home blood test three days after OTD urine test. Urine test came back positive. We are used to getting to this stage. The last two FET our blood test didn’t show a very strong line. Implantation failure/chemical at 6-7 weeks both times. Fresh transfer this time

stopping vitamins before tests
hi everyone, I can’t remember if I have to stop my vitamin b12 and D before doing my medichecks test - the one that tests for t3, t4, tsh, folate, b12, D, ferritin and inflammation. I’m taking the vitamins in spray form now so no biotin - is there any other reason I have to stop before testing? Thanks

Latest results, I’m a bit confused
Fresh in today, and I’m amazed at the B12 result! My B12 has been steadily dropping, the last test in March last year showed total B12 at 271 range 145-569, this result is >150 for active B12, there isn’t a result for total but I’m not sure why it’s missing. Can anyone enlighten me? My CRP has shot up

How to approach GP to get private endocrinologist referral?
Hello, I'm after a bit of advice really. I have approached a private endocrinologist who has come recommended by someone in this forum, but this endo says that they need a GP referral before they can make an appointment. I'm not sure how to pitch my request to my GP? My TSH is good however my T3 and

Ferritin and Iron
I found some information below about Ferritin and Iron - it is from the Dr Mercola website. I have just had my ferritin levels and iron levels checked - The Doctor said they were a bit on the low side so I am taking some gentle iron. My ferritin was 50.9 - I never heard of ferritin before having RLS

folate dropping
I have been injecting since July 2023, thanks to you all, I knew to check my ferritin when I felt something else was off…since no doctor thought it necessary. It was 14. Now I am on iron supplements. My folate has always been >24. However, since starting the iron, my folate has dropped to 15 (still

When is 5.6 not 5.6
For as long as I can remember my FT3 has been 5.6 with a consistent dose of 2 grains of Thyroid S and a consistent range of (3.4 - 6.8). 18 months ago I moved to another part of the country where the FT3 range is (2.5 - 5.5). Technically my FT3 is now over range although no one seems to be too worried

Hiya Eventually Plymouth Live agreed to post my story. Sadly they wouldnt put in about the T3 debacle unless I could find an NHS Professional who would prepared to be interviewed by them on this subject.

Waiting for order?
Hi all. I placed an order for T3 10 weeks ago at my usual source. Paid by PayPal as usual but have been chasing them via email as I've not received them. I've just received an email saying they've had 'hard damage ' to their website and Facebook page and all their communications were lost. I assume they

Considering Conception & Ideal Thyroid Levels
Hi all. I finally saw an endocrinologist and they suggested increasing thyroxine dose by 20% when doing an embryo transfer to ensure adequate thyroxine. I asked about FT3 and FT4 levels but they were only interested in TSH which didn’t make sense given it only signals thyroid production and isn’t a thyroid

T3 help
Hi, I have been on T3 only for a few years now and although I don't get it on the NHS, my endocrinologist supports me taking it and tells me that I can source it cheaper than they can, so to just crack on. My Doctors also let me get on with it. They test me and give advice, but as always, they do not

Getting a thyroidectomy soon, what to expect?
Hi, recently diagnosed with a tumour in my thyroid, so team at hospital will be removing the whole thing soon. I am overwhelmed with all this stuff I've been reading here about T4/T3, vitamins, calcium etc. I thought I just had to take a tablet every day, dosage might be adjusted if necessary, but that
