Advice before I see the endo
hi oracles I could really do with some advice as to what I should do next. I’m going to see my Endo next Tuesday and my TSH is under the range, she’s going to want to reduce my meds and I don’t know what I feel anymore. Here’s my last results from private tests from 2 weeks ago … TSH - 0.154 Range

The ongoing battle to be well
Since I had Graves diagnosed years ago have struggled with levothyroxine alone..had RAI ...although my previous doctor gave me a private prescription for Thybon Henning Liothyronine. Which I have got - but due to house move changed doctors..present one said it would not help so I did not take it!!

Help with introduction of T3 please…..
Good morning, I would truly love some guidance on how best to introduce T3. My private endo has now prescribed T3 to commence with 5mcg twice a day. He would like me to drop my levo from 100 to 75 at the same time. I am trialing T3 due to poor conversion and all the usual symptoms which accompany

Another 8 weeks on. Advice, please
I did it as per guidelines here, EXCEPT for
T4
which I took about 26 or 27 hours before the
test
. Long story. Got up for a pee around 3am and took it on autopilot. The point is, I think the FT4 result is lower than it might have been?

So my sister has just found that she has haemochromatosis...
I've nagged her to follow up on her high ferritin results for the last year or so, though GP seemed disinterested with it above 700 so I sent her to give blood which bought it down to 400. Since then we have successfully got her GP to acknowledge her Hypothyroidism and prescribe T4 and I got her to

Starting T3 combination trial
Morning all.Thanks everyone for your reply! I haven't started the combination yet. After 3 trips to the pharmacy, they didn't have 85mcg thyroxine, so they reduced to 75mcg! The dose of T3 is 5mcg once daily. I do feel set up to fail. I'm still have the classic hypo symptoms, (and more!) despite T4 in

Cytomel sleep starts?
I started taking Cytomel six months ago. I had more energy and occasionally woke up several times in the night or had trouble sleeping. Around two months ago, 2 to 3 times a week. Every time I start dozing off I am suddenly woken with a start. My heart starts racing, my arms, neck and face feel tingly

Do you think I need an increase in my T4 dose???
Hi all, I have hashimoto and hypo since many years. I take T4 medication ( 100 mg) every morning. The brand name is Euthyrox ( the version which has mannitol and citric acid instead of lactose). This is my thyroid test results after 14 months of no tests at all due to lack of medical insurance. I was

Can thyroid function recover after RAI
I received RAI in 2010 for alleged nodules but then consultant thought I may have had Graves disease instead. Over the last 13 years, I have had my levothyroxine reduced from 150 to 100 and I fear it will be reduced again. I am 55 years old. My question is why does the doseage need reducing? Is it

Sussex hospitals no longer giving fT4 result on thyroid function tests
Hello, Writing this post in case it helps prepare others rather than for advice (but feel free to advise if you wish!). I had a blood test last Friday not because of hypothyroidism but the test included "thyroid function". My results came back with just TSH being reported, no fT4 as I have been used

Possible underactive thyroid?
Hi everyone, I'm new here and would love some advice from people who actually know what they're talking about as I currently feel like I'm being fobbed off by everyone! I am 42 years old, and have struggled with symptoms that I have always considered to be thyroid related but every NHS test came back

Hi Everyone Sorry for long post. I am so confused now. These are my thyroid blood test results, unfortunately I never know when the district nurse if coming out to do the blood test so I can’t leave the recommended 24hrs between Levothyroxine and blood test. I took my Levothyroxine at between

TSH and freet4 levels
Hi what does TSH level 4.73 and free T4 level 8.8 mean? I have been struggling for years with tiredness (I also have fibromyalgia). This tiredness is different. I'm struggling with it now. Achieving very little. Every time I have a blood test, which is not often cause I get told everything fine, no

Hypo with Hyper results!
Hi All and good to meet you. Had a thyroidectomy in 2022. Just had a blood test with TSH - 0.2 miU/l FT4 24.5 pmol/L On levothyroxine 125mg for 4 days and 100mg for 3 days. Any idea why this looks like hyperthyroid? Thanks for any advice.
