Endo review... that's a new slant!
Opening line...
Endo: I don't wish to discuss TSH with you as we disagree (0.05 results from 5 months ago)
Me: š¤ (zipped mouth)
Your fT4 is near the top of the range 17.2 (12-22) blah blah heart and bone issues blah blah
š(confused) even though it is actually in the middle? Are you

My nieces thyroid test results
Hope this is ok to post on here on behalf of my neice. She also has hypothyroid like myself she's had it for the past 5 years and have never looked at her test results until now because I told her she should get her T3 and T4 tested also. Could I had some feedback with results please ? Tsh 3.46 mu

Now I'm really confused ā surprising test results
I've been on here before complaining about the same problems which seemed to stem mostly from undertreated hypothyroidism and doctors being too cautious to change my T4 dose. My picture has been complicated for several years by atrial fibrillation which has the grace at times to run to tachycardia (very

Heart rate after levothyroxine increase
Hello all :) I recently got myself a private endocrinologist appointment after being increasingly frustrated by GPs being dismissive, and not wanting to increase my levothyroxine as my levels were "normal" despite still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I'm so glad I did, because she was very kind, completely

An NHS thyroid specialist in or around Worcestershire please?
Does anyone know an NHS thyroid specialist on or near Worcestershire please? Unfortunately it has to be an NHS one, not private. Any ideas, by private message only. Thank you.

My Endo Consultation Disasterā¦. No T3 for me.
Hello everyone, feeling like I want to scream into a pillow this morning! I had my private consultation yesterday and not only wouldnāt he prescribe me any T3, he is also going to write to my GP to reduce my Levo prescription!! So it was all a bit of a disaster really. I showed him my Blue Horizon

I also get this all over my body and have bulging not pitting type odema at the top of my shins towards

Fatigued with anxiety
Hi, I have hypothyroidism which was diagnosed three years ago and am currently on Levothyroxine 100mg daily. My memory has improved to a more normal level but I wake up every morning barely able to open my eyes and in work I am able to function, but I lack sharpness and feel detached, almost like I am

Need help, reassurance, explanation anything!
Hi everyone, I'm very new here and I'm still in a little bit of shock and trying to process everything at the minute. I am 7 months postpartum and have a beautiful 7 month old baby boy! He's wonderful, but the entire pregnancy was not! I suffered hyperemesis for 6 months with multiple hospital stays

Wondering about something
I know everyone is different so there won't be a precise answer to this. I know when we have a dose increase it takes a few weeks or more to feel the effects. But, I'm wondering how fast medication affects our levels like tsh and t4. Does that take weeks too?

Bottom of T4 range - Graves
Ok - had a mental health crisis over the weekend - not feeling great but kinda sorted myself out. I was waiting for results which get posted and thought I had gone up the scale turns out T4 is 12 (range is 11-23) lowest it's ever been and TSH is 0.20 (range is 0.27-4.5) - they won't test anything else
