Urgent help please - feeling total despair - think I'm going crazy after stopping and restarting levothyroxine - blood results included
Hi, This won't be the full story as I don't want to to make the post too long and hard/annoying to read. It's already going to be too long. RAI for Graves around 11 years ago. Never felt good on T4 since. Normal dose around 100 micrograms plus around 12.5 micrograms a couple of times a week. Mostly stopped

ferritin
so my ferritin is at 29 and my restless legs are bad so from what I read I should work on increasing my levels. My question is my levels have been lower than this before and I didn’t have any symptoms of restless legs , so does this mean raising my ferritin levels won’t work ?

T3 looks low to me! I have a goitre....help please.
I'm waiting for and Ultrasound scan for goitre. I had to push for T3/T4 blood test after gp took TSH and was then fixated on high cholesterol levels. I did some research and found that cholesterol levels were raised with thyroid problems and said I would not take Statins until thyroid sorted out.

PMR Review with GP
Further to my previous two posts, I had my appointment with the GP today, which was interesting. No mention of fibro. Yay! Mind you, this was the same doc I saw right after diagnosis and the guy who sent me off next day to the hospital ophthalmologist to get my eyes checked out to make sure that I

Peak flow app with reminders
Can anyone recommend a peak flow recording app for iPhone that notifies you when it’s time to take a measurement? I’ve been using asthma md but it doesn’t have this feature and I keep forgetting to take my peak flow. Thanks in advance.

sore gums anyone?
Good morning everyone just a quick query, each time I reduce my T4 I find I get sore gums and sometimes ulcers in my mouth. Happened about 4 or 5 times. Have any of you had this problem? Also knocks my insomnia into another gear.

I recently read a book “The Great Thyroid Scandal (and how to avoid it)’ and “ticked” my way through the book as I have had 90% of the various symptoms detailed in the book for the past 30 years. It suggested that the adrenal gland & thyroid work closely together & if thyroid is not functioning as it
