My Nature Throid to ERFA journey (moose turned guinie pig)

[LazyMoose]

Different brands of Thyroid meds work differently in different people. I started going downhill on reformulated Nature Throid back in Feburary. But wasnt sure what was happening - the med or other things. Had some other tests besides thyroid , seemed ok.

Notice the high T3 with the super high TSH on NT in March.  How is that explained?. VERY ODD. I really felt hypo and hyper at the same time.

Changed to ERFA and labs started to look better.   The 5-22 lab reflects 2 grains daily only for 4 weeks so far, FT4 might still go up in time.  This was not all the same lab,  their close.

Starting to feel human.
