Cannabis oil
The situation Rai is a bit more complicated . The oil for sale in holland and Barrett and on line is a component is cannabis called cpd. This is legal. The controversy in the press concerns the oil containing cpd and th c. Thc is the part which gives you the high and is hallucigenic hence illegal.

Urinary Iodine Concentrations and Mortality Among U.S. Adults
Iodine is, was, and will continue to be a controversial subject. There are people who have what I consider massive intakes of iodine (from supplements such as Lugol's or nascent iodine) and who suggest that we should all follow their example. There are others who are very cautious and positively avoid

Hi everyone.
M, 49, just had TT due to papillary carcinoma. Didn't know I had cancer six weeks ago, so not sure how I feel about it. Coming up two weeks after the second op, and I'm still incredibly fatigued. I have RAI due end of July, and hate the idea of being this knackered throughout the summer holidays! Anyway

NIH CLL Clinical Study
Fairly recent CLL dx, Stage 0 RAI. In process of joining NIH in Bethesda, Maryland long term tissue study for CLL. Would love to hear of experiences with other CLLrs involved in this study.

Problems with iodine
Anyone had a reaction to Iodine not sure it suited me, is there an alternative? Will continue if it’s the best option but prefer not too, I have lots of allergies.

NDT making me feel hyper?
I have used NDT (Erfa Thyroid) for over 10 years. Suddenly this year I have had nasty hyper symptoms, but labs are normal. I have insomnia, heart papls, shaky hands etc. I tried to lower my dose but it made me have hypo AND hyper symptoms! Also my labs are too low if I lower my dose. So that is not a

I’ve recently joined the wet macula brigade unfortunately!
It good to have a forum to chat with people already diagnosed, I am 69 with one eye wet and the other dry, I have just had my first Avastin injection and the dreaded iodine that wasn’t used sparingly, I found the injection more painful than I was led to believe so not looking forward to the next, I have

Iodine content of six fish species, Norwegian dairy products and hen's egg
I have an unpleasant feeling that any deviation between the Norwegian Food Composition Table and this paper might be somewhat less than the UK equivalent. I was somewhat amazed at the huge iodine content of Norwegian pollack! Whilst it might be necessary to have a simplified system to approximate iodine

Tracheomalacia, or my goitre is squashing my trachea...
Hi everyone, Ultrasounds have shown my goitre is growing and is now 8-9 times the size of should be and is pressing on my trachea. A girlfriend says I wheeze a lot when I exercise, and sometimes I feel it pressing on my throat. I'm not on any thyroid meds, although the endo I saw thinks I should get

Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality after treatment of hyperthyroidism with either radioactive iodine or thyroidectomy
The choice between thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine (RAI) to treat hyperthyroidism has long been controversial. (Mind, we must not ignore the possibility of remaining long-term on anti-thyroid medication.) The possible side effects of RAI have been described, and discussed, at length over many years

Long-Term Antithyroid Drug Treatment: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
We have read of too many Graves sufferers being pushed towards either radioactive iodine treatment or surgery. We have also seen quite a few who have stuck with anti-thyroid medicines for many years. Clearly opposing viewpoints. Good to see a paper specifically looking at long term use of anti-thyroid

PA or not PA?
Hi, I have a family history of PA, though I have never been diagnosed myself. I have been Hypothyroid for 5 years, since having had RAI for Hyperthyroid in 2013. I have posted the results for those on the TUK site. I wondered if someone would be able to take a look at these results and let me know what

Iodine and selenium testing in Uk- worth the fight?
Hi all, So recently I feel like I may actually be iodine deficient and because of hashimotos I have actively been avoiding it in supplements and my diet is prob low in it too. I always crave fish and seafood and wonder if this is more a biological craving for iodine possibly. I’ve also been supplementing
