Iodine urine test do's and dont's?
We have bought the Iodine urine test from Genova again, and having read the instructions we are a bit confused as the instructions on do's and dont's are a bit vague. My partner did two of these tests already and had strange results, the first test came back over 300 and the second 600, the range is

Can Sea Moss Gel affect your thyroid blood test
I recently had a thyroid blood test (nhs) and have been informed by my GP that the results show a slight abnormality and to re take the blood test in one month . The only change I have made is to add Sea Moss Gel to my morning drink , could this have affected my thyroid as Sea Moss Gel contains 92

Buprenorphine
I am currently taking 300 mg Pregabalin around 7pm and 2x 30 g of codeine (sometimes 3x 30g) during the night. I am also taking ferrous sulphate at 10pm each night. This isn’t working. I take the first codeine half an hour before bedtime and maybe sleep for 1 to 2hours. I then have to walk around/have

Newly diagnosed
Hi all, diagnosed 4th May after episode of very rapid heart beats that wouldn't stop. Went to A & E where the diagnosis of AF was made. Stayed in for 5 days while they did CT scan of lungs and ultra sound of leg. Reason for that was that I had no symptom at all until a partial knee replacement 2nd March

Goitre & supplementing selenium & iodine
Does anyone supplement with selenium & iodine? I have a multi-modular goitre which is not really causing any problems. I do not take any thyroid medication. I have had a lot of blood tests done because I have a lot of unexplained symptoms like fatigue, insomnia, aches, brain fog, digestive issues etc

Why do I have heart palpitations with these thyroid results?
Hello beautiful people. I would love to get your input as to why I get heart palpitations, high pulse and HBP with my current thyroid and other results. Yes, my TSH is slightly raised, but it actually went down from 6.9 in Nov to 4.9 in Feb on Levo 75 mcg, so it should continue to go down. I've

Amitriptyline? Or something else?
I’m advised my by GP to take 30mg Amitriptyline daily. However, this amount makes my restless legs worse. I’m lying in bed now awake at 3am, so I’ve taken two paracetamols and 30mg codeine. I sometimes think the drugs we take makes things worse. What do you take for Fibromyalgia?

CT scan iodine query
Hi. My cardiologist has booked me in for a CT cardio scan to rule out heart disease. This uses iodine based dye to show up the arteries. My question is, would that type of iodine (guessing it's a compound) impact my thyroid at all? I have asked the scan department and they've asked that I contact the

Iodine and the thyroid
Could someone help with explaining this article I found on the British Thyroid Foundation site. I eat salmon. Is this to be avoided due to its iodine content? Or is it good for hypothyroidism? I have added this to my diet over the last 6 months. Can this affect the thyroid e.g going overactive or

Subclinical thyroid disease for 5 yrs
My thyroid has caused me few obvious problems in that time, other than varying T3 results.Before Xmas, 2022 I had a radionuclear scan which diagnosed toxic nodular goitre. I returned in January '23 to discuss what Endo want to do. Apparently, my choices are RAI or take Carbimazole. The dose was low,

Codeine for RLS
Hi all, So I've been on Pregabalin for a year and a bit and still not slept a full night. Sometimes it's good and I can sleep for 5 hours straight, but other times...let's just say not so good! I've noticed sugar exacerbates the problem, as does spicy food and overeating. (I'm on the maximum dose of
