High TSH for IVF
Hello everyone, I always had TSH around 2.5, but after taking Gonal F, Ovitrelle and Utrogestan something must of have triggered the levels, in a month it went from 2.5 to 6, the 10. I was put on ltyroxyne 50mg. We had IUIs which were not successful, maybe it was not worth doing with high TSH? Doctor

Banging my head against a brick wall!
First, let me start by saying I've being reading post after post and this forum seems very well informed, helpful and respectful.

I had a mental breakdown the other day and ended up in hospital because my medication regime was changed for no reason. As I have said elsewhere I take 2, 5 mg tablets of diazepam per week and have for a very, very long time with no problems. Yes I'd like more to enable me to get out of the house more

My symptoms have returned - do I need additional Levothyroxine?
Lots of info in my Profile/Biography. I have been on T4 for many years. After adding privately-sourced T3 to my prescribed T4 around 2019 I have been jogging along reasonably well until a year or so ago, when symptoms started to return. Extreme tiredness, inexplicable weight gain, bad brain fog, and

Help with not tolerating T3 Liothyronine
Hi again, This might sound like a stupid question but does Levothyroxine increase T3 or does it just increase T4 (and of course lowers TSH)? The reason I ask is that I have now been taking Liothyronine 5mcg once a day for over two weeks and I feel worse than just on Levothyroxine. If I increase to

Cystoscopy or not to cystoscopy
The urologist who referred me for the Ultra sound scan and cystoscopy is now away until the 29th August however the NHS have sent me an appointment for the cystoscopy next Friday, 16th. The urology department when making the appointment remarked that the USS had come back normal with no focal lesions

Good diet so no need for Adcal?
I asked my GP (again!)about taking Adcal and explained that a lot of people on this forum were automatically prescribed it when put on steroids. GP asked about my diet and said I was getting plenty of calcium in my diet. He said calcium and Vitamin D levels were good on my last blood test and the DEXA

Feels like torn muscle at 2mg of pred
Hello forum friends, I have had PMR for 2 and a half years, I am now 53 years old and am moderately active. I have been on the journey of ‘dead slow’ tapering from 2.5mg to 2mg over the last 4 weeks. I currently feel like I have a torn muscle in the top of my right arm. I don’t think I did anything

Graves Blood Test food or not to food ...
So I was always under the assumption that I shouldn't eat prior to a blood test - I'm never hungry anyway so no bother - however, lovely vampire said "have you eaten anything? don't want you passing out on me!" I said "no - I generally don't bother before blood tests nor am I hungry!" she then told me
