Best blood values
Already learned a lot in this forum and from other sources about optimal blood values for Vit D and B12. Just wonder if similar recommendations exist for zinc, selenium, iodine, iron and omega 3 and 6? I’m on WFPBD, take some supplements and check my blood values every three months, some more expensive

worried about weight gain
Hi this is the 3rd time I've had graves disease in 9 years! I'm just wondering if my consultant will try to push me to have RAI this time as I was told I couldn't be on medication too long or often last time. Also I've worked really hard this year to lose lockdown weight & I'm worried about gaining

Hi - my 17 year old daughter has been experiencing hair loss and hair thinning. She attributed it to having got Cold but that was over a year ago now. She is stressed with all the A level work she has to do and trying to do well so that she goes to the university of her choice which requires high grades

I would like to see a discussion of T4 & T3 Conversion. I believe I was dx with Hypothyroid and placed on Levo that made me sick.
Out of the blue on a random PE lab I was dx with hypothyroid because of an elevated TSH. I had no sx and had been walking 2 miles 3 times a week, eating reasonably well no junk or fast food pretty much ever, not a big water drinker. After 4 3/4 years of feeling like how they describe amphetamine users

Low iodine diet?
Much advice here to be careful to not add iodine supplements to diet with hypothyroid- but taking this a step further should we not all be careful to cut back on all the foods with the most iodine eg fish and prawns etc I read an article from someone who actively advises clients to cut back on these

Wondering about Betadine/Povidone-Iodine solution and Thyroid
Hello all, I am preparing for a vacation - something long overdue :-) In my preparations, I decided I needed to bring along a nasal "mist" that would essentially decontaminate my nose from any yucky stuff, viruses - covid or whatever else may be lurking. I just realized that this solution has iodine
