Hypo symptoms worse when sitting?
Hi all! Had a quick query, and recognise the title might sound a bit bonkers! I have Hashi's, diagnosed in March, initially on thyroxine, but then moved onto NDT in September and have been generally feeling better than I was... I had a bit of a break from work for lots of reasons but started a new job

Vitamin D deficient but not sure if prescribed dose is high enough?
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this (apologies if not!). After getting sick with things for 7-8 weeks in a row (COVID, then two cases of flu back to back, and then a chest infection), along with fatigue and joint/bone pain, I had a blood test, and I was told by my GP that I have low

levo side effects and alternatives
hi all I’ve written in her a few times and had such helpful responses so here I go again, I’m sorry but my GPs seem a tad useless on the thyroid function stuff. I had a TSH of 10.3 and within range but low FT4 so have been on a 50mg dose of Levo since start of sept. Since then I’ve had headaches

Thyroid results pre IVF
Hi everyone, I have had some routine blood tests done ahead of IVF including TFTs. Results: TSH 0.29miu/L, free T4 16.pmol/L and TPO 225iu/ml. I know the antibodies are high which I am very surprised about as I have no symptoms and no history personally or within the family of thyroid issues. TSH

Vitamin D supplement
Have been watching Dr John Campbell on U Tube and he is recommending taking a large amount of Vit D to avoid catching Covid or any other virus infection. It also lessens the effect of these viruses. At present I just have the vit D in Calcichew - 10 micrograms , and thats when I remember to take it

Thyroid tests
Hi all, As part of routine bloods ahead of FET my clinic tested my thyroid. FSH and T4 were very normal but I had evidence of raised TPO antibodies. I’ve read this can lead to miscarriage but have a friend who had the same thing during fertility and was told it’s quite common by endocrinologist and

Leaky Gut syndrome r
I am hypothyroid diagnosed in 2018 when my TSH was above 5 and i was contacted by my GP. I was advised i was deficient in Vitamin D and put on a course of tablets before another blood test which had lowered my TSH to below 5 and normal, so no treatment was necessary. I've since added further vitamins
