Hello I'm new here.
I was going to wait to poast until I had my test results but here I am. Just been told I have autoimmune thyroiditis. Don't think it's Hashi's because I don't think there's a goitre, but I was told a few years ago that my inner throat was swollen because of waterbrash (stomach acid coming up the oesophagus

My consultant surgeon want to keep me on ventilation and sedation for 3 days following aortic valve replacement. Has anyone else had a valve replacement surgery were they were told they had to be ventilated and sedated for 3 days following surgery? Ventilation damages the lungs and those who are ventilated

Disappointing GP visit…referral for talking therapy and poss CFS, no increase in levo
As I’m still very symptomatic (hypothyroidism with history of results in bio) I went back to the GP to explain this, share my Blue Horizon test results and ask for a trial increase to 125mg of levothyroxine. Not a great appointment- apparently I shouldn’t lay everything at the door of my thyroid! GP

Finding the Right Treatment
I have been really depressed for the last two years. I have been diagnosed with treatment resistant depression. I have tried 10 different medications, I do weekly therapy, see a psychiatric NP and I have finally resorted to ECT until my insurance company stopped paying for anesthesia. I can't afford

Encourage to those contemplating valve replacement
I just want to encourage anyone worried about life after aortic valve replacement. I know that each case is different and when I had my valve replaced I was young and in good health apart from the leaking valve but I just want to share a photo I took on a walk this week to demonstrate what can be possible

Chiropractors
Sometimes I comment on chiropractors and how they can affect health issues. I posted this on another post and thought maybe some people, who do not read that post, could be interested. There is a chance that the condition of the spine could have something to do with AF. Heart doctors generally do not
