Hashimoto
Being diagnosed as a six year old with Hashimoto, which had already destroyed my thyroid I was always wondering what other treatment options are out there. Over the last some years I found out a lot about related illness that I have like high cholesterol, teeth problems, on and off iron deficiency etc

Mum update (CBD)
Thought I had finally better give you all an update on mum. Mum had a fall back in Feb which resulted in a broken nose and slight skull fracture, still mobile unaided at this point, but with falls risk. Admitted to hospital after 24 hours in A&E, finally getting a bed in a ward. Ward then had changed

I'm currently on sertide and being switched over to symbicort. I'm not sure of the dosage etc as need to discuss further with gp. I'm a little concerned as been on seretide for years. When I get switched it triggers flares and I've already had loads of time of work. I work part time. I also think I'm

ERFA Source
Hi. I remember from a long time ago, there is one stockist abroad that will sell ERFA without needing a prescription. I would be really grateful if anyone can tell me who it is by PM, thanks. I am desperate to try it as Thyroid S is no longer working for me. My health authority will not prescribe any

Has anyone been diagnosed with 'Da Costa Syndrome' after a head injury.
Weird histories involving concussion. Da Costa syndrome first appeared in the American civil war. It was thought to be some kind of heart disease that caused fatigue. But many soldiers with this were executed for malingering and being cowards. Then it became a psychiatric condition in the 20th century

Anyone else feel the same?
Each time I have to go through the process of buying NDT I go through a series of emotions.1. Angry that in this day and age I have to buy meds from Thailand 2. That the NHS won't let us have the meds we need 3. The cost if these meds, how will I afford once I've retired 4. The fact the cost is highly

Reassurance about taking T3 during pregnancy
Hi All I’m just looking for some reassurance if anyone else has continued on T3 during pregnancy. When I tested positive my ft4 was 17.5 (12-22) but my ft3 tanked from 4.4 to 3.1(3.1-6.8) and all my hypo symptoms were terrible. (Previous ft4 was17.1 and ft3 4.4 so I was still probably under medicated

Need your advice, pls, what should I take and how?
Hey all, I've been on a bit of a journey, unwell for the past few years, diagnosed 2012, did awesome on thyroid meds until...I didn't. Since I have now all cofactors optimal (vit D, B12, folate, iron, ferritin - after iron IV, magnesium), I feel my problem either stems from cortisol issues or balance

Fed up gut!
Hi, I have suffered with diverticulitis and IBS for about 15 years. Recently I have experienced hard bloated tum with dragging sensation just under left breast. When I eat it becomes very uncomfortable and nausea soon follows. When I walk any distance my tum swells to huge proportions and only relieves

Considering NDT
Hello everyone, It’s been a while since I have posted! I wish I could say it’s because I have been doing really well on my thyroid journey. I have been very unwell, picking up infections and having allergic reactions to antibiotics that left me with swelling around my eye and now a really ‘nice’ scar

PSA #’s elevated from sex (After ADT and RT)
I’ve been on Active Surveillance since completing my
ADT
and RT both in 2017 &18 finally coming out of castration in 2019 / early 2020 with a basement T level, so I began Penile Rehab. Well over a year after that, I was able to resume (what I now refer to as) sexual relations with my wife!

Advice about recent NDT thyroid blood tests and high SHBG
Hi there! Is there any connection between high SHBG and taking NDT thyroid medication? I've been feeling better than ever on my Erfa thyroid medication and I don't feel over medicated at all, but I had high SHBG. My estradiol also seems high. I've read that one reason for high SHBG can be hyperthyroidism

Intracrinology-Revisited and Prostate Cancer
Thus, adaptive responses in the canonical, alternative and backdoor pathways due to
ADT
would be effectively surmounted by inhibition of AKR1C3. The challenge is to develop AKR1C3 isoform selective inhibitors that do not inhibit the highly related AKR1C1 and AKR1C2 enzymes.

Vit B/Folate Advice Needed Please
Ever since having my jabs in October I felt very ill initially and then I have carried on feeling unwell and so recently I did an advanced thyroid test with Medichecks and realised my thyroid was out of kilter so I've upped my NDT by 1/8 grain (knowing I had some wiggle room). My vitamins all took
