Thyroid scan advice and recommendations please
Good Afternoon everyone 😊 Thyroid UK recommends London Private Ultrasound Clinic. Please could anyone who has used them private message me with your experiences, good or bad, or anything I should be aware of beforehand? I'm thinking of having a scan with them as I will be in London for another reason

The results are in, over to the judges.
I am a 59 year old, 74Kg male, with no other comorbidities except mild lifelong well controlled Asthma. The tests on 10/01/2024 where all taken using the guidance given here, of no levy for 24 hours prior and no food/drink ETC before the test. The previous tests may not have been in full compliance

Hypo and Menopausal
Good morning you lovely people does anyone have any information surrounding thyroid meds and HRT? Since taking HRT I feel more hypo and my main symptom is a lot of hair loss. GP is trying to help but doesn’t really understand and still only goes by TSH. Do the hormones interfere with each other? I make

weight, diet and statins?
currently down to 5mg, generally chugging along ok, still working, but feeling occasional fatigue so assume I’m getting towards my own adrenals firing back up. Unfortunately I’ve put on about 25lbs over the last 15 months or so 😠 so looking to maybe start trying to lose some. About 3-4 years ago

Negative test, cramping
Hi 👋 We are 12 days post transfer and have done a pregnancy test this morning as directed, which is negative. I still have lower tummy and back cramps, does anyone know if this is this normal? I’ve spoken to out nurses and they said it’s probably unrelated, but I’ve never had any problems before

Update on me.
So it's been a while since I posted here. Still waiting to see a pulmonologist. That will be happening in June provided there's no cancellations or delays because of industrial action. Had spirometry done both FEV1 and FVC were 91. Not indicative of airway obstruction. Relieving and frustrating at
