Auditory hallucinations triggered by raising Levothyroxine dose.
hi. This is my first posting here so please forgive any mistakes. My 92 yr old mother has had mildly low thyroid levels diagnosed from blood tests. She was put on 25mg daily which she’s been on for some months now. The most recent blood test indicated she needed to raise the dose so was given 50mg daily

Has anybody noticed a change to Armour at all this year?Just wanting to rule out different possibilities to why I feel worse than usual.
I have had alot of additional tough stressors this year ,but my FT4 and FT3 have dropped despite a gradual dose increase. I am going through the list of possibilities suggested on this forum, but thought I also should ask the question has Armour changed this year, ie perhaps a filler? I understand '

Thyroid medication Rx in the UK
Hello, My family will be moving to the UK from the US for my husband's job for around 3-5 years starting this fall. I have been on brand name Unithroid and generic t3 meds, Liothyronine, for about 5 years now and my levels have stayed consistent and really great. I tend not to do well when I switch

Mirtazapine and appetite
I am on mirtazapine 30 mg now, I take it before sleep, otherwise I can't sleep.I noticed that I feel hungry all the time and my appetite is increased. I thought I got diabetes but my blood sugar levels are normal. Does mirtazapine increase appetite thaat much ?

As much as I'd like to believe that one "bad" bacteria (desulfovibrio) is responsible for Parkinson's, I suspect the situation is more complicated than that, as this recently released study suggests; https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-38248-4 Certainly the evidence is accumulating though, that

Thybon henning t3
Hi, I have asked my private Dr to write my prescription for Thybon Henning T3. He said it is only for lactose intolerant patients. Is that true, I know it is lactose free, but I asked for it because it is cheapest. He said I had to email that I was lactose intolerant before he would specify it. I have

I have suffered with severe RLS for over 30 years. At first with no sign of treatment I used strong pain meds which I regularly took too much of just trying to calm my legs down enough to sleep, that didn’t work. In 2005 I saw a right up in a Sunday news paper about a treatment called adartrel, this

Berberine godsend
I struggled to get all my "T" levels and TSH normalized. No matter what we did my medicine wasn't helping. I read someplace that taking Berberdine and Ceylon cinnamon helps to keep your levels regulated so I decided to give it a try. I had all kinds of issues not getting my levels up for 2.4 years

Hypo weight gain mystery is now finally revealed for me (anyway)
Some great posts here recently covering various aspects of blood sugar levels and hypo condition: -Dawn effect whereby blood sugar tends to rise between 4-8am -Evidence that taking Levo pills provides a spike in blood sugar -Hypo condition anyway leads to slower metabolism and less regulated insulin

Blue Horizon Microbiome Test
I've had my results back. My gut microbiome shares my age, so that's not so bad. I have a high indication for autoimmune diseases. ( no sh*t, Sherlock) No vitamin deficiencies. I should eat more soybean ( no thanks) and there is a reason I've never liked bananas - according to the test, I shouldn't

Effect of thyroid hormones on blood glucose
PART I — I know how thyroid hormones (TH) raise blood glucose. — In liver, TH increases expression of GLUT2 -->increase in both gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. —In liver, T3 increases gluconeogenesis by increasing activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) —the TH stimulated glycogenolysis
