Painful shoulders
I had my thyroid out in June. My right shoulder was a little painful before surgery, but now both of them keep me awake at night. I just had an MRI but was wondering if anybody else has pain in the shoulders that goes down the arms. Little finger feel sort of numb also. I can't imagine how surgery

T3 without a prescription?
Hi, I had RAI in July after trying and failing with block and replace (Graves) and Endo said this was the only way to go. At the moment on 100mcg Levothyroxine and the nurse said TSH and T4 normal even though I told her I feel dreadful, which means total exhaustion to the point of hardly functioning

Help with fairly sudden resting pulse rate of 90.
I had a bypass op in July following a very mild heart attack. I was on Nature Throid 2+1/4 grains and had seen my endo on day before -TSH 0.03 . T4 12.9 and T3 4.2. Comment to GP was that TSH represented over medication. I have dropped N T from 2+1/2 grains to 2 grains this week but I know this will

Hypo after RAI - Some advice regarding blood test results appreciated
Hi - hoping for a steer in the right direction if possible. I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in 2007, RAI in 2010 and hypothyroid ever since. Never any confirmation of Graves disease but I'm presuming that was the cause. Been on 100mcg since I went underactive. Feeling awful recently - very fatigued

Thyroid cancer
Hi all, I am new to this site, I have being diagnosed with variable follicular thyroid cancer after having half my throid removed (with a 4cm lump) the surgeon now wants to remove the other half as precaution which would mean having to take a tablet for the rest of my life to replace what the thyroid

Hypothetical question
What happens if you stop taking levothyroxine? I had RAI treatment on 2016 September 2017 endocrinologist said your normal and signed me off 6 weeks later my gp re tests and it’s all too high. Doc dropped me down to 150mcg and my system has gone to sleep Seems I only function well on a high

Sources of iodine ?
If you are dairy and wheat free and do not take iodised salt what do people think is likely intake of iodine per day ? My gut sense is that you are not getting RDA? Happy for other views

Supplier of T3
Complained of tiredness for 40 yrs diagnosed as CFS but convinced Thyroid has a lot to do with it. Received radioactive Iodine 20 yrs ago made me worse. UK medical practitioners tell me blood test showing TSH T3 and T4 all within ranges but I am not satisfied. Discussed T3 with consultant at Endocronology

Radioactive Iodine Therapy
2 weeks of strict diet of Iodine free. Then the Pill, sending home. Worried about my small dogs, 12lbs, one is 4yrs, and one 11. They sleep on my bed, every night. Should I board them or try to lock them in another room- very traumatic. I'm told to stay in for 7 days with minimal contact with people

Hyperthyroid and tremors
I have been diagnosed with hyperthyroid about 4 to 5 months back in a general annual check up with A TSH of 0.027 and FT3 and FT4 on an elebated side. I had my thyroid scan done which shows very less absorption of radioactive iodine. Doctor says my blood tests and scan do not correspond. I have tremors

Iodine deficiency
Just read the letter the endo sent to my gp. Says he wonders if i have iodine deficiency. Told me to continue to supplement iodine. Says all thyroid are normal except anti tpo which is slightly raised. I knew my antitpo were slightly raised. My tsh is 3. I have had nearly 2 years of diffuse hair loss
