Advice appreciated
Hi. I've been under active following radio iodine for over 8 or so years. Forget ! I am taking levo 125 daily. In the last couple of years I was diagnosed with depression. Put on antidepressants and after a battle I did get better but I'm never the same. Doc has said the 2 illnesses could be linked

Confused by Rheumy appointment and everything else. Please advise? At my wits end π
Hi everyone. It's been a while since I posted last. Alot has went on so I'll recap quickly: - Positive Ana, Ena, C reactive protein, Ro and elevated platelets in Dec 16. Referral to Rheumatology. 33 weeks wait until appointment. - Overactive thyroid discovered in June 17 when I got viral meningitis.

Overactive Thyroid
Hi, I was diagnosed with an overactive thyroid 2 months ago. I was prescribed Carbimazole which I had a bad allergic reaction too and ended up in hospital. I was then switched too Propylthiouracil which seems to be working well. Had my first Endocrinology appointment today and have been advised too have

Utterly confused!
Hi! I've been on levo since April 2016 after radio-active iodine treatment. I've been feeling terrible just lately and was sure that I'd gone under-active again and needed to increase my dose. I was weepy, joints aching, my nails are dry and feeling really tired all the time. (Though in fairness,

GP cautioned me about Thyroid UK credability
I presented some insights/research in letter form to my GP to aid further engagement & education about by my ongoing Thyca with view to seeking their clinical POV. As they all have limited experience & knowledge in dealing with Thyca. Content included info. about T3, letter from Dr Lindner, D102 gene

Overactive Thyroid
Hi I've been diagnosed for the past 3 years or so. I have Graves' disease and TED.... I was due to have RAI next Tuesday but my Endo said my bloods indicated that I might be cured and so has postponed the procedure to monitor me until next Jan. So I have stopped my daily dosage of 5mg of Carbimozole

Doctor prescribed me iodine, but far less than recommended
I just had a chat with the rogue doctor, they suspect mitochondrial issues. In the mean time while I get my amino acids tested I am advised to take iodine, but less than I did before (150-350 mcg), they recommended as little as 50 mcg at first for long term to see what happens. I am also getting tested

Hypo following RAI
I am a 28 year old male who had an overactive thyroid as a teenager. It was under control on carbimazole but eventually I decided to go ahead with my endos advice to get Radio active iodine treatment in 2010. I was made aware that this could potentially cause an underactive thyroid down the line but

Crazy thyroid journey!
Looking for anyone who may feel the same? I am waiting for thyroid surgery after a very long journey and feel it has taken so much out of me to get to this point. I think the medical profession can underestimate that on top of a very unstable condition, alongside this there are emotional ups and downs

A bit of reassurance to 1st timers!
Just to say the fear of the injection is far far worse than the actual injection! Don't be scared to ask to hold a nurses hand . .it helps. It's pretty quick so you may be waiting to feel something when it's actually been done! Make sure you get some drops for afterwards . .the only thing that's caused
