Too hot to handle
I wrote about it month ago the symptoms of extreme temperatures changes that I was experiencing, and how my endocrinologist was not getting back to me even though I and my GP had contacted him. I had RAI treatment about it year ago and was put on levythroxine l. I have since found that my thyroid was

Help with results please
Hi everyone I recently have been having severe palpitations and slight chest pain I spoke to a GP at my surgery who suggested we do some bloods, initially she only wanted to test for TSH but I managed to convince her to do my T4 and T3 she reluctantly agreed I have no thyroid after having our RAI in

Advice on levothyroxine, supplements and possible T3 addition after thyroid cancer and treatment
Advice on levothyroxine dose, supplements and possible T3 addition after thyroid cancer and treatment I’m looking for some guidance/advice on a few issues if possible as feeling pretty lost and a bit overwhelmed on what to do next. I’ve been reading a lot of posts and information on here for a few months

Iodine foods
Hello. My diet is lacking iodine rich foods. What iodine rich foods should one eat on a plant based diet. I eat salmon fish once or twice a week. I used to drink milk and eat chicken before my CKD diagnosis. Please help.

Going from Graves to being hypothyroid without RAI or thyroidectomy

Appointment as aspected 😢
As expected, I got nowhere. Consultant apologised and said he knows it’s frustrating but as results are in range, he can’t do anything. He said normal range is the average range of the normal population and I’m in that range for everything so as an endocrinologist, he can’t do anymore. Said the people

Appointment tomorrow
Hi everyone. I have a hospital appointment tomorrow and don’t hold much hope. Long story short... RAI in 2011. Now hypo and health has got worse over the years. Lots of symptoms. Never get anywhere trying to get a T3 trial. Last hospital appointment in September was a waste of time and was fobbed

Good news - different injector - no blood shot eyes!
I recently wrote than when a particular individual did my eye injections I came out with two bloodshot eyes. This person said there may be some bruising as I’m now taking blood thinners. I wasn’t sure this was true as thought it was more likely her technique, which despite reassuring words felt more

My Thyroid Story Part II
Dr OPQ, GP/homeopath So, after lengthy chats with one of my students, who was a great fan of homeopathy, I thought I’d give that a go. Not much choice of doctors where I live, but managed to find one that also did acupuncture, which was a bonus. To his credit, he did say straight up that he didn’t know

Sublinical Hypothyroidism?
Hi Everyone, I've recently been to A and E for palpitations and they have found no issue with my heart. This is the second time this has happened this year. These always come with the usual symptoms below that occur in the run up and aftermath. Usually I dose up on vitamins and it eventually seems to

Diet and exercise for hyperthyroidism?
Hi all, Has anyone tried a low iodine diet combined with exercise to control their overactive thyroid (Graves’ disease), either as a sole treatment or in conjunction with other treatments? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

The ABC of Disease book by Philip Day
Has anyone read the above book and especially his section on thyroid disease? He recommends, for hypo, taking Lugo's Iodine (self medicating before having to resort to thyroxine) - has anyone tried this? His advice on diet & supplements is also very helpful. Interestingly, he refers to the book called

Iodine Content of Celtic Sea Salt
We see many people mentioning that they get iodine from Celtic Sea Salt. I don't dispute that it does contain some iodine. But the amount might be rather less than we tend to imagine. I went to one company's web site (Selina) and checked on their plain Celtic Sea Salt. [i]Q. Does Celtic Sea Salt®

Iodine in end stage Hashimoto´s?
I had a thyroid ultrasound a couple of weeks ago which showed a "completely atrophied thyroid gland" according to the radiologist´s report. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 1999 based on very high anti-TPO and anti-thyroglobulin levels, but both have been in range for the last couple of years which
