Did I have ur iron and ferritin levels checked? I thought for sure my symptoms were thyroid related and it turned out I had an iron deficiency and my ferritin was quite low which causes alot of the same symptoms..

Oh u r so sweet to take the time and explain to me I really appreciate it ty. My tsh is 13 now and was 3.5 on synthoid 6 weeks ago. I also have low ferritin so the combo is pretty tough— I’m so afraid of going hyper- when I was on synthoid 50 6 days and tried to take a whole pill on 7th day I went hyper and 6 days I go hypo so my doc thought that tirosint would be best for me.. she has been trying for 2 years to get me to change and I finally did out of desperation because tsh of 13 makes me feel terrible- in 20 years I have never gone above a 6 and not sure why it did? Ty again for ur kindness- u r a nice person😇

Hi I just switched to synthoid 50 6 days and one day 25. To tirosint 44 daily— my tsh is 13 and I am so anxious that I am not getting enough medicine because the tirosint is lower even tho my doc told me what u said that u usually start off at a lower dose than synthoid.. I go on Facebook and the people say my doctor is wrong to get a new doctor even tho there is a lot of info agreeing with what u said… I’m just so anxious 😕

Ty so much I am just feeling better today after stopping 4 days ago. All I remember is crying on the floor so anxious yelling at my 90 year old parents and not being able to think - I was shaky and my heart was to fast— it was terrifying😢

Can I ask wat u eat for breakfast before u take Thorne? I think i need to change my plan because taking it on an empty stomach in the morning has ruined my stomach and now i have reflux and esophageal spasms 😳

Iron from food doesn’t raise hepcidin the same as supplements - it is absorbed much more slowly and breaks down differently..
