Comments On Blood Test Results Please
I don't post very often but I read a lot on here, and after having a Blue Horizon full thyroid blood test, I would be interested in the thoughts of anyone on what came out of it. I had radioactive iodine some years ago and am on levothyroxine (100mg). My results from the GP always come back as 'normal

T3: the devils doing
Hopefully, if you read this you’ve seen my original rant about the ablation (RAI) of my Thyroid for graves. You will have read that at the time, despite my almost blind faith in the GP and Endo (and their proposed care path), I had my reservations: I felt my condition had settled under the long use of

private blood tests
Hi all, Who uses private blood tests and where / how do you do them? I am under a consultant endo for hyper / graves but my bloods are only done every 12 weeks or so. I have been on 40mg carbimazole for nearly a year and finally my latest test apparently I’m hypo. This was found out the day I had

Very Scared and suffering with Graves Disease - don't know what to do next?
This is first time I have posted anything about this. I was diagnosed with Graves in 2016. Treatment then was satisfactory - mainly getting regular blood tests, mainly 3 monthly and hospital appointments but had two further relapses recently from 2021/22 and current one since Feb 2023 - each time getting

Asking for advice following RAI
My MIL, bless her had an RAI several years ago due to hyperthyroidism. I often wonder if they got it right as she never fitted the profile for overactive. I know she's always struggled with weight gain and if anything I would have said she was more hypo than hyper. Several years later she's never been

Odd Results?
Long time guys! Peculiar results today. RAI in 2014 and unwell since. Trialing 20mcg T3 and ERFA 30mg TSH 9.04 (0.27-4.2) T4 3.9 (3.1-6.8) T3 10.5 (3.1-6.8) TSH is usually well suppressed so hard to know what to make of these results. Still feel dreadful and think I’ve exhausted these medications

Iodine treatment?
Hello, due to see my consultant this afternoon after me not reacting well to the medication they were treating me for over active thyroid. It was lowering my white blood cells, has given me Antithyroid Arthritis so don’t want to go back on. I am going to ask him about iodine treatment and just wondered

I wonder if my thyroid was going wrong for decades before I became hyperthyroid?
I went hyperthyroid about 19 years ago. My explanation for it has been that it came soon after the birth of my beautiful son (amazing but stressful of course) and then the sudden death of my father a year or so later. I was just rambling on an ADHD forum (DX in 2022 now titrating) and the question occurred

My daughter has a swelling on her neck, can someone advise?
My daughter has been on a school trip away from home. The teachers posted pics for the parents to see and my eyes were instantly drawn to the swelling on her neck. Obviously I'm concerned this is her thyroid. After 4 days the swelling has gone down, however I can still feel it slightly. We're booked

Is it necessary to start treatment with L-thyroxin 50 μg ?
Hi, I'm new to this community and hope to get some advice. While looking into fertility treatment last Sept. I was told that I had elevated TPO antibodies 23.5 IU/ml (normal: <5.6) but TSH was normal at 1.87mIU/l (normal:0.27-4.20). Then I fell pregnant naurally in January and got my doctor to check

Looking for T2 & Thyroid granulars to supplement my meds.
Been watching Dr Westin Childs on YouTube for a couple of years now and I think he is great, from what I have learned since being in here and watching him has helped me a lot!! Now he recommends a combination of medications as to get a ‘full range’ of Thyroid ‘Goodness’ for the want of another term …

Can iodine affect thyroid medication test result numbers?
Hi all few days ago I was prescribed a medication for atrial fibrillation, namely Amiodarone. It's contains iodine and if I had a thyroid which I don't my thyroid would have to be monitored regularly on this medication.So by having no thyroid I do not need to have regular thyroid checks. But I was wondering

why wouldn't the consultant order a scan of a goiter ( I have confirmed Graves Disease?)
I have a recently confirmed Graves Disease. And also a goiter. Anyone any insight please as to why the medics won't do a scan of the goiter? When I asked they said it's because the treatment plan is the same regardless in first instance - ie carbimazole - in hope that stops growth/ balances the

I think I’ve messed up!
Started to feel not so great. Was taking 2 grains of NDT and 25mcg T3( background RAI therapy around 10 yrs ago) I went to the doctors who took bloods. Results as detailed. I am not sure why my results are so low. I have been on the same dosage for a long time- blood results were always good! Has NDT

Overactive thyroid? Does reducing iodine intake in your diet help? It has for me so far.
I was diagnosed with an overactive thyroid / Graves Disease in 2015. Between 2016 and 2021 I was on "block & replace" treatment - 40mg of carbimazole daily along with 150mcg of levothyroxine. My thyroid had stabilised by 2021, after which point I was taken off all medication. I relapsed with an overactive
