SIDE EFFECTS FROM HYPO MEDS
Anyone else out there who’s resistant to all the hypothyroid meds they’ve tried? Over the last year I’ve tried Synthroid, Synthroid with Cytomel, Erfa, Erfa with Synthroid, and compounded NDT - which is pretty much all we have available to us in Canada. They all increase my hypo symptoms and give

I need help with my schoolwork
Hello Everyone, I am Kayra, I am currently 18. I am doing a qualification called Welsh Baccalaureate. I am currently suffering from Graves' disease and I understand how tough it can be to battle this disease and similar diseases. Also, I can not bring myself to imagine people who have battled with thyroid

Some advice please
Hi, I'm in surgical menopause and have not felt 'well' for a number of years now. I won't bore you with the backstory of my trials and tribulations with HRT, all in the pursuit of feeling well enough to fully function. I've questioned Thyroid for some time, I had tests last September and posted them

Association between different water iodine exposures & thyroid cancer: A retrospective study of high water iodine areas in China 2009-20
There are many differences between China and the UK. Including other aspects of water quality/analysis, diet, etc. For example, distribution of selenium in China is very complicated with adjacent areas sometimes have very different selenium intake.Therefore, we simply cannot pick up this paper and apply

medicheck results, what to do next?
I have posted my results before from Medichecks and I persuaded my youngest daughter to take the thyroid and vitamin test recently due to her symptoms of lethargy and the fact that not only I have hypothyroidism but also her Dad and older sister. Her iron plus Vit D were all low so she is now taking

Chris Kamara and Things Thyroid
I found this interesting as he supported the thyroid care petition, and before that I didn’t even realise that he also had a thyroid problem. I remember also wondering myself about Alzheimers the other year as I didn’t know what was happening to me. https://amp.theguardian.com/football/2023/nov/04

British Thyroid Foundation ?
Came across this https://www.btf-thyroid.org/thyroid-function-tests#tft5 when searching for info to try and help with current GP pig headedness. Think I now know some of the reasons why GP is being so closed about discussion. States must keep TSH in range, if below can cause osteoporosis and long

ANA & Connective Tissue Disorder results Graves
Hoping for some help. I got called into the doctors on Monday to discuss my latest bloods & my continued weight loss, I had already discussed my thyroid bloods with the endocrine nurse so was not really sure what is was about. My GP said that I had tested positive for ANA & connective tissue disease

Blood results help
Hi I have had blood test tsh is one (range 0.4 to 5) and T4 is 14 ( range is 9 to 19). Also had an ultrasound which showed altered echotexture but no enlargement of thyroid. Are these results OK? Have symptoms of underactive thyroid but results all in range. Thanks

Ultrasound Results. What type of thyroid issue could this be?
Had an ultrasound on my neck after pain in lower neck and ear pain. Dr advised right side of thyroid is very inflamed and left side shriveled with one nodule and should have further blood tests. Heard nothing so chased after 4 weeks and have been given a telephone call with ENT. I've had two low thyroid

Monitoring Thyroid
I have a condition which is known as an MPN . I have a haematology appointment this week when my Consultant is going to discuss a new treatment. This treatment is known to interfere with thyroid function and anyone going on it will need their thyroid function monitored as it can cause thyroid issues

TPO ab dropped to 'normal' levels
Good Morning all! I'm not here very often these days because largely thanks to the advice and support of the superstars here, my thyroid medication has been under control for a few years now. I hope this is a beacon of hope for those of you still battling through. I take my NHS t4 and I supplement

Help boosting thyroid without medication?
Hello all I have posted before as my thyroid function is poor but always comes back in range (my TSH never rises even with low levels) so no chance of medication on the NHS (other than statins for high cholesterol which I refuse). I did some recent tests TSH 1.95 (0.27-4.2) T4 14.6 (12-22) T3
