Fighting for corrections is so hard.
I am coming up on the one year of my wife's passing. On this day last year, she was sitting in her hospital bed eating frozen fruit. She was at 99% Sat with 1l of O2, and the plan was to turn it off in the morning. LFT's bang on Normal. Indirect Billi is still high, direct normal. Albumin low Plat low

Dr Shandeep Momi
I have moved from overseas where I was taking T3/T4 combo. I need to find a new doctor ASAP as I haven't had levels checked for at least 18 months. Is Shandeep Momi good? I need full thyroid testing as well as extensive bloodwork Thanks

Bit lost …wondering where I’m heading …
Hi forum friends I went to my gp Friday to see what help I might get re my thyroid now and also if I might see a haematologist re high serum iron but low ferritin (28 …5-204) thus can’t take three arrows. I didnt get many answers as he concentrated on a current kidney/uti issue I have so he’s booked

How to change from T3 only to T4?
I'm currently self medicating on 50mcg Tiromel and have been for a few years. My doctor prescribed me 75 mcg Eutirox 5 x week and 88 on the weekends. It just wasn't working for me, so after a lot of reading I assumed I was just someone with a faulty conversion gene and decided to try alternatives.

Recurring infections?
Hi. I have been on steroids since last April - currently 10mg daily - for suspected GCA (tests were inconclusive so going on initial symptoms and response to medication) . Have been reasonably well and side effects limited to some fatigue and weight gain. However in the month or so before Christmas my

Help with results appreciated
Hi everyone, It's been a while since I had full TFTs etc so I was surprised to see some of the results, especially compared to last time (2020). The TSH is lower than in 2020 (when it was 3.7), the Free T4 is slightly higher (16.2 in 2020), but the Free T3 is lower than it was (5.24). My B12 results

new to group
I developed strange heavy lower leg sensation in 10/23; always been very healthy active 54 year old female. This issue coincided with a lower back flare up after playing pickle ball. MRI revealed a small disc bulge at L4-5 but no one was sure if these symptoms were related. I also got brain MRI

I'm new here :)
Hi I'm new to the group, I was referred here by a councilor. I'm struggling to conceive, I have endometriosis and have just found out I have low progesterone and very high prolactin so I've got to wait for another blood test to see what can be done from there. Anyone else in the same boat?

Thyroxine & Gaviscon
Hi just a quick question. I'm prescribed Gaviscon 4 times a day after meals & at night. My Thyroxine dose was always taken in the morning for 30 years then asked to change to bed time in 2022. Just realised that I also take Gaviscon last thing at night too. Any suggestions as if I omit it I get indigestion

Hello all
I have just been diagnosed with a “(since 2014)” added. I’m hoping to find some helpful tips and ideas from you all going forward. It will be lovely to be able to get advice from those that have already been there. I feel like I’ve been told yes it’s sub-clinical, here’s some thyroxine, now off you go

Need recommendations for herbal supplements.
