[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 149565, member: 15043"] So I’ve done a ridiculous amount of research, in regards to thyroid, the past 6 months, and I haven’t found one person that was able to get optimal on generic T4 only treatment. There is a few that were able to do it on Synthroid, but that is almost just as rare. The vast majority either use a combination of synthroid and T3, NDT only, T3 only, or NDT and T3 together. So for you, I would either get on a quality NDT or switch to synthroid and add in some T3. You are going to find it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to get optimal on Levothyroxine alone. Being over medicated shouldn’t worry you. It’s extremely easy to avoid. Depending on your Levothyroxine dose, you most likely will just have to switch to Synthroid, and lower your T4 dose, and add in at3 at 5-10mcg to start. Then add in 5mcg every 5-7 days, while monitoring morning temps, your pulse rate, symptoms, and obv labs eventually. It’s very easy to avoid getting hyperthyroid symptoms when u know what you’re doing. [/QUOTE]
