New results help - trying to find correct dosage after overmedication
For your reference, when I felt normal on 200mcg my blood was as follows: tsh 1.46 FT4: 18 (9-19) - testing not done proper, levo was taken before so more like 16.5-17 no FT3 result
Vitamin
D
was 46 (reference 75-250), and is now 119 (taking 4000IU daily). I am in Canada.

Shall I raise my Levo
I’ve been on 115mcg of T4 now for around 3 months. For one month I did the carnivore/keto diet with a little T3 but it was so hard to stick to. I’ve been eating normally again with no T3 now for about 2-3 weeks. My levels are still quite low so I’m thinking of going up to 125mcg per day does this sound

Returning to work with exhaustion
Hey lovelies 💛 I hope you are all doing well. I had my Laparoscopy 4 weeks ago now (9th April) I was in theatre for around 3 hours and they removed a fair bit of endo. I've felt really good since, only a little bit of pain & managing to do normal things - cooking, cleaning etc. However I have had

Mixing pills (prescription and over-the-counter)
A frequent query is about the effect of pills and how one might interact with another. The usual advice is to read the leaflet and check with one's pharmacist or GP. On occasion I've suggested that Googling and consulting
authoritative
websites should also be considered, as I wonder to what extent

Poor GP response for years!
Hello. First time poster here Long story short I have been taking Levothyroxine for around 8 years and within this time I have had a constant battle with my GP to manage my symptoms. Unfortunately I have found that it does depend on which GP you get as to whether they will increase Levothyroxine.

Thyroid Lab Error
I've had thyroid disorder now for many years and it's been well managed. Now I'm pregnant and getting tested every month. I had a weird experience where my tested my TSH as 4.8 (0.4-4). That raised alarm bells so I went to a private clinic to get full blood work (FT3, FT4, vitamins and minerals etc.)

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

Teen boy impulsivity/help
Good morning. My 15 year old son has mild to moderate ADHD. Doing very well in school, but has some impulse behaviors with peers that has always been there and issues with focusing. He is also highly emotional and needs to "vent" to me daily. I want to make sure he is doing this in a healthy manner
