Thyroid test results
I’ve been taking 200mg of thyroxine for most of my adult life. Now the doctors have reduced to 150mg I returned to the doctors to say I felt awful. All my symptoms were returning. So they issued another blood test. They have came back saying my TSH level is too low and reduced my dose even more.

Graves - blood test
I bit the bullet and have messaged the GP this morning and requested a blood test ... I'll wait and see if they'll allow it. I realised whilst crying AGAIN in the shower this morning that something was very wrong, as I was struggling to get up again this morning, unable to go for my usual walk and crying

Could thyroid be causing the issues ?
I have enclosed my daughters ( age 22 ) last thyroid result panel. Her TSH in June last year was over 6 then swung down to under 2 in September but is on the rise again. Her T3/ T4 are always just above minimum. Her father has Hashimoto’s as did her Grandfather and so does her male cousin. Grandad unfortunately

Hashimoto’s or Graves’ symptoms or…? Help to clarify please.
Hi everybody! I’m new here. Would be very grateful for your advice. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 17 years ago. It was in different country not in the UK. I have never been on medication as I was told if my T4 level is ok I don’t need any pills. I’m now in UK for about 5 years. I’ve never seen endocrinologist

Help with results please!
Morning! I would appreciate advice please. Due to another health issue I happened to be at the Drs and was offered a blood test to check thyroid levels. Without thinking , I agreed . However, I had had my thyroxine before appointment . My question is how will this have affected my results? I had TSH,

So I am in Liverpool, I have asked 4 times over the last 3 or 4 years for a referral nand refused each time. Following on from Sneaky GP saga, GP lying that I consented to reduction in meds in November. I asked for her entry in my notes to be removed as it was incorrect and it has not been. They refuse

Feeling like something stuck in my throat on swallowing - any thoughts please
Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone else had experienced the same thing ? I guess it is down to some issue in my thyroid - but there are no visual lumps externally, just this weird sensation on swallowing. It started in March . Three weeks ago I have had annual bloods by GP and as my TSH is suppressed

IGF-1 Blood Test
I have had the results of my IGF-1 blood test. It’s 26.4nmol/L. The endo has said he thinks it’s because I’m over medicated with my thyroid medication. He’s arranged an OGTT. I’m currently on 75mcg T4 and 10mcg T3. I recently lowered the dose from 100mcg/10mcg. I had been on that dose for a long time

Sensitive - How long does it take to get a negative pregnancy test after miscarriage?
Hi all, I took medication for a miscarriage on Dec 23rd (due to a empty 3cm sac). I was told the hcg pregnancy test should be negative 3 weeks after, which will be Saturday. I took the HCG test this morning and the test line is still almost as dark as the control. I was expecting the test to be negative

Iron Deficiency and Iron Deficiency Anemia: Potential Risk Factors in Bone Loss
Members are likely all too familiar with patients being told that they are suffering osteopenia or osteoporosis due to having too much thyroid hormone. And, especially, too much T3. While it is important to realise that there is a case to be made regarding excess thyroid hormone, it is just as important

19 year old son, blood results. Only taking 75mcg levothyroxine but results show high T3?
Hi everyone, My 19 year old son is having symptoms returning. Backround tiredness, low resistance to bugs and migraines seem to be comming back. He has been on Levo 75mcg for 3 months. Initially Doctor started him on 25mcg Levo last summer. He has responded really well to the levo, resolving most

is this subclinical hypothyroidism?
Hi, Any guidance would be much appreciated please… this is all new to me. I managed to persuade my GP that I have symptoms of hashimotos and to humour me a TSH test , T4 /T3 and anti TPO blood test was done. However the bloods were done at 10:30am, I’ve been having biotin in my multi vitamin and drank

Blood test timing
Hi all you clever folks out there, I’ve upped my medication of liquid thyroxine in the last few months from 50 to 75mcg. I did it without GP’s consent but I was feeling so hypo and tired and although my last blood test results were within range (TSH 2.35), I knew an increase would help. I was going to

Please can I get a view from experienced users of what I should be suggesting to my endo consultant the next time I see him. He is very open to what I have to say but I am currently feeling a bit lost as to what to do. My main problem at this stage is my weight. I have put on 2 stone in

Infertility and endo options
Currently starting second round of IVF (x2 embryos in round 1 with x1 negative pregnancy test and x1 embryo left frozen) with endo still on uterosacral ligaments, pelvis and bowel vaginal wall. Been trying to find consistent & clear guidance whether to have remaining endo removed before further embryo
