Newbie to this community and wondering about B12 deficiency
Hello, for the past 4 years I've had symptoms of CFS, plus low FT4 and on occasions, low TSH. I've also had my cortisol tested by saliva and short synacthen test, both showed low levels but the adrenals work when stimulated so it's not Addisons. I've tried levothyroxine, T3 and thyroid glandulars and

T3 looks low to me! I have a goitre....help please.
I'm waiting for and Ultrasound scan for goitre. I had to push for T3/T4 blood test after gp took TSH and was then fixated on high cholesterol levels. I did some research and found that cholesterol levels were raised with thyroid problems and said I would not take Statins until thyroid sorted out.

Advice with Graves Disease
Hi All - I was diagnosed with Graves Disease in June 2023 and prescribed Carbimazole 20mg plus Propranolol 80mg Sustained Release. I have never actually met my endocrinologist owing to NHS strikes, so as a 60yo man I feel pretty alone with this condition as I don't know anyone else who has it. After
