    Hiya,

    Has anyone who is on ERFA started noticing a difference lately? My last prescription looks slightly different from normal, the tablets are more mottled, whereas usually it's just an even beige colour. My latest TFT has also come back a bit unusual, so I'm wondering if there is something up with the batch?

    Hi sorry I'm only seeing this now. Yes I thought it looked bit spotty too. Can I ask how your TFT was? Did you notice any other differences in how you were feeling?

    My bloods were really good in July - TSH was 0.83 and my endo was very happy. Then I had them done again in September and it's jumped up to 3.8! That's the most it has swung in about 2 years! So frustrating! And now I am on Armour for the past month or so, as I can't get Erfa. Trying to get my pharmacy to order Erfa in but there is still a shortage. Apparently it will be resolved in a few weeks.

    I even contacted Erfa themselves in Canada and they put me in touch with a UK wholesaler. I've passed on the contact details to my pharmacy so hopefully I can get it asap! My endo has recommended I get a years supply or at least 6 months minimum as I will be trying to conceive as soon as I can get my TSH back to normal. The last thing i want is to run out while pregnant.

    Never a dull moment...
