What happens to your thyroid levels
Question of curiosity. If someone is having a seizure and they take bloods for thyroid levels would your labs show a low level of thyroid hormones or would it show a higher level of hormones? I thought I read that if it you fall ill like have a seizure that your levels will drop to protect you???

Good Morning Thank you for allowing me to join the community. Thank you for helping us all. I have been going to my gp for sometime with low thyroid symptoms but they say the blood test is normal. My mother had a parathyroid tumour removed in her forties and my brothers and mother have underactive thyroids

Unbelievable Endo setting the record straight on weight gain …
People often blame the thyroid when they put on weight. Is it usually to blame? That’s one of things that our society overplays. In truth, the weight gain associated with untreated hypothyroidism is generally just a few pounds — we’re not talking 50 or 60. Your thyroid doesn’t make you crave food; it

Thyroid question please...
Hi everyone, I am writing to ask if you can have a sore thyroid without significant enlargement and with 'normal' bloods? I have had 'normal' bloods, it doesn't seem visually enlarged, though I feel like I am being strangled and have audible sounds when I swallow in my ears. When I move my head something

Sporadically fall backwards with no warning
3 weeks into new dose of 100 levothyroxine (on waking) + 2 doses of 7.5 t3 (one on waking and one at 3pm - [built up gradually]). Back to suddenly, out of nowhere just falling backwards and fatigue beyond all comprehension. This falling symptom only started after my 15 days off levothyroxine, nearly

Thyroid cancer, hot flashes and cold intolerance/shivering?
I haven’t been diagnosed with thyroid cancer but I’ve been unwell for well over a year and my symptoms have got progressively worse. I only just did a post on this few days ago but I wanted to make a new one as I’m curious to see who has had thyroid cancer and found that they had a progressive worsening

Radiation for cancer other than thyroid.
Does radiation treatment for breast cancer affect thyroid medications? Does dose need to be adjusted during or after treatment?

Elevated Diastolic Blood Pressure & Thyroid?
I’ve read that thyroid issues can increase diastolic blood pressure while systolic remains normal. I’ve been seeing a slight increase / trend with this. Has anyone else seen this and it meant levothyroxine increase needed?

Parathyroid test is high
I've recently had a blood test (yearly bloods) to check my thyroid levels as I have an under active thyroid. My doctor also did my Parathyroid which has shown up as high and he's referred me to an endocrinologist. Does anyone know what this means?

Interesting article about effects of medication on thyroid function in dogs. However, many human studies are referenced too.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10473007/ Although this 2023 paper is about how medications affect thyroid function in dogs, I found much of relevance to humans given within the text body, with good references. I found it an interesting read and the first diagram particularly illuminating

Medichecks advice
Hello, I am planning to do a full thyroid and vitamin test with Medichecks. Firstly, is there a discount for Thyroid UK members please, and if so, how do I get it? Also, I think members of this forum might have some advice on when to do the test. Thank you for your support in advance.

Why do I suddenly feel terrible but still taking Armour?
My private
thyroid
doctor recommended an increase in
Armour
by a quarter of a grain a day and bloods six weeks later. I started doing that dose on 1st April. The constipation started to ease after about a week. Since 13th (6 days ago) I have felt absolutely terrible.
