Invisible Hypothyroidism Guest blog - How I needed a Different Thyroid Medication to Get My Life Back

By Paul on Mon, 21/01/2019 - 16:18

Rachel Hill is a writer, blogger and thyroid patient advocate in the UK. She is also known as The Invisible Hypothyroidism when on line. 

This is Rachel's story in her own words. It somewhat similar to my own, certainly in terms of the mishandling by the medical profession and the withholding of the correct medication she needed to recover.

I first had symptoms of hypothyroidism at sixteen years old.

CONSULTS with Paul Robinson

By Paul on Fri, 18/01/2019 - 15:00

I am now offering 1-1 CONSULTS for people who need a little extra support to recover from hypothyroidism or low cortisol issues etc.

I work with all forms of thyroid hormone, e.g. T4 (Levothyroxine, Synthroid), Natural Desiccated Thyroid (NDT), T3 and all combinations. 

I do the consults via Skype, Zoom or Facetime and also by email if necessary.

Please contact me via email at recoveringwitht3@gmail.com to find out more details.

Why Recovery Often Takes Longer Than Simply Being on the Right Thyroid Medication

I sometimes get asked by patients why they still don't feel well even though they think they are on the correct thyroid hormone type and dosage for them.

How to Go About Switching from One Brand of T3 to Another

By Paul on Thu, 27/12/2018 - 17:29

This is a question that comes up a lot from patients. 

If someone is on one type of T3 (or even NDT) and it is being taken in several doses per day, but they have to change brands, how is the best way to go about this?

Well, do not wait until one type runs out before switching over to the new brand. Swapping over all doses at once is not advisable, as the brands may have different strengths and may even have unwanted side effects.
