Hello!
Happy Holidays! It's been a while. I recently realized that I am not supposed to take calcium or iron 4 hours after my Tirosint 100mg and liothyronine 10mg. Um, for the past few years, I've been mostly eating after an hour of taking thyroid meds (coffee with whole milk, etc.). So it's highly likely that my thyroid meds were not being absorbed properly..no wonder I needed coffee so badly, and felt awful sometimes. Wow.
My question: What is a good time range to take thyroid meds to ensure room for eating normally without affecting thyroid absorption? It seems like I have to take it really early...
I'm trying again to lose weight, and eat right. I did TT in 2012. It's been a roller coaster trying to get my thyroid meds optimized... I realized recently that I did not do any labs for the year, so will do those soon. I'm eager to see the results and will share results when available.
Thank you much! I really appreciate your insight!!
