Naltrexone
I am on thyroxine and T3 medication for under active thyroid. A friend was recently prescribed low dose naltrexone to help with inflammation in the body as well as being on thyroid medication. Does anyone know if naltrexone is available to purchase without prescription in the UK as I would like to trial

Advice for blood test results
Hi all, I would really appreciate some help with my latest blood test results. I have gradually reduced my meds over time, from 150/125 mcg Levothyroxine and 20 mcg liothyronine, to 75 mcg Levothyroxine and 10 mcg liothyronine. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s back in 2013, but my TPO has been within

Weaning off proprananol
Hello everyone,I have Graves disease and had a thyroidectomy in June 2022.I am having conversion problems ,even with a very over-range T4.I know proprananol can reduce T4 to T3 conversion and am looking to try and wean off it. My GP put me on 20mg 3x a day as a migraine preventative. I also take 20mg

New test results after NHS ones
Hi I got some good advice after being dispirited last week by 'normal' results from my GP. I got a set done by Monitor my health, hope you can read them. My question is, should I go back to my GP and ask for an increase in Levo from 75mcg to 100mcg or is that not going to help my T3 - which is presumably

Tight chest T3+ T4 fractures
I have T3 and T4 vertebrae fractures. Sometimes (like this afternoon) I feel tight chested. Could that be because of the fractures (and not a heart warning!)? I am looking for others’ experience, not advice. Thank you.

My experience of T3 on keto/carnivore so far
I’ve been taking 12.5mcg a day T3 now (raised from 6) for about a month on the keto/carnivore diet. It’s been going well I’ve been exercising and getting back to reading books again which has been nice. Carnivore was quite hard so I transitioned over to keto which seemed to help a bit probably because

How to describe if you have been told you have under active thyroid in layman’s terms
I read the questions/answers with interest, but not being a numpty I want to know what is happening to my body there is talk of t3:t4 etc, what do they all mean? Can anybody advise me in sentences that explain it plainly or is there a recommended book that details what is happening and why. I realise

Ft3 295% 3 hours after dose, taking 95 t4 and 30 t3 in one go (Armour and Thybon T3)
Hey all, I am currently not splitting the above dose and I'm getting weird symptoms every single day. My ft3 is 90% of range in the morning, but it goes up to 295% after the dose. Ft4 is 54% after 3 hours and about 38% in the morning. Would splitting it help with hypo and hyper symptoms? I seem to be

One
test
was thyroid function
test
: TSH, T4 but of course, no
T3
. The results were TSH 4.48 (0.35-5.00); T4 14.3 (11.00-23.00). Do you think it would be worth getting Medichecks to do a proper Thyroid function test?

Intermittent fasting (daily 16:8) while taking Levothyroxine - to control weight. Your thoughts please, Is this ok or not advisable?
I’ve read that leaving 16 hours in between eating or drinking anything other than water is an effective way for the body to burn its fat stores. Then during the 8 hour window that you do have food, you make sure you are consuming all the beneficial vitamins, minerals, protein, etc. and sufficient calories

I speed from Armour Thyroid (1 grain am 3/4 pm ) last Monday to 50 mcg Levo and 10mcg Liothyronibe am and another 10 mcg pm. Bloods done Tuesday am (last dose T4 24 hrs before and split T3 am/3:00 pm and 7:30 pm). Only water before test at 7:30 am. Results below. I’m wondering how quickly the change

Adding T3
Finally allowing me to try adding 10mg of T3 twice a day to my 100mcg of Levothyroxine.I am a little scared of going hyper or heart racing, the endo hasn't reduced my levo and these were my last results. They probably look normal but I'm struggling with weight and my resting pulse is around 60. If

NDT vs T4 T3 combination therapy
Hello everyone. Please share your experience NDT vs combination therapy. Currently I am on combo but still have symptoms (I have no thyroid). I am doing better on combo than on T4 only. I want to try NDT and see if it will make me feel better. Since both of them mainly contain T4 T3 may I expect significant

Stopping meds before blood test
I normally take 1/2 my T3 12 hours prior and then I take my T4 and the other half of
T3
after the
test
but I seem to recall someone on here telling me this was wrong? Also, how long to you need to be free of Biotin for? Thanks a lot

TEVA 100mcg Thyroxine
I had taken another brand for many years and have now been switched to TEVA. This happened a short while ago and since then I feel much more tired with aching joints. Is this coincidence? Overall my dose has been reduced from 100/day to 100 Mon-Fri and 75 Sat, Sun. This is addition to T3 12.5 mcg
