Last blood test it was at 5 on 100 levothyroxine. Just introduced a further 25 three times a week. As a result I am seriously struggling to cope with

cannabis oil
hello I’m probably a bit thick but I know nothing about cannabis oil or gummies !! Never heard of them! Are they legal in the Uk? Are thus using good? I use pregabalin and codeine can cannabis be used in conjunction with these drugs are they any benefits? Would they react with blood thinner? Ie Apixaban

RAI or continue on Carbimazole?
Does anyone know the long term risks of staying on Carbimazole? I have been told that the Radioiodine treatment is the gold standard of treatment, but the articles online talk about increased risks of cancers. I am on 5mg Carbimazole and have been for 5 and a half years, with 3 monthly blood tests. Twice

Sky high Iodine result??
I posted previously and hopefully the link below will show that post. Bottom line is my partner was on 4 drops Lugols Iodine via patch test via Naturopath for thyroid, she felt worse with that treatment and stopt the iodine drops and the Naturopath on 15 Sept 22, we did a Genova urine iodine test on

Genetics Specialist??? Why?
Hey all! I hope all is well. So a bit of backstory. I am DX'd with Lupus (beginning stages but on Meds etc). I have had crazy reactions to CT Scan iodine which isnt that uncommon, however, when I do, it directly hits my feet (after shoulders and arms which goes away fast) and then I get the skin

iodised salt?
hi, As someone who uses levothyroxine same dose everyday and who doesn’t have a strong iodine source in the diet except some eggs (no bread, no seewead etc) ; What are the chances of getting symptoms of overmedication (for me, the most prominent is too quick passage of food through gi tract) the

The iodine question
Hello, I am pondering on iodine supplementation. The b-complex I used it buy have changed the formula to add iodine so I am trying another one. However my nutritionist friend has incouraged me to have some iodine as it is important for healthy breast tissue and ovaries. I am also reading The Period Repair

Hi, first time on here and hopefully might find some advice, if not it might prompt some to ensure they get the appropriate shingles vaccine. I was diagnosed with CLL in 2014 with my first round treatment in 2017. This went reasonably well and I then went 4 years before it was decided that I would need

long lasting bleeding
Hi all. For context, I was diagnosed with endo almost two years ago via laparoscopy (I was fortunate enough to be able to go private because I was sick of the medical gaslighting). I was on birth control pills until last year but I got tired of pumping myself full of hormones so came off over a year

Blood Test results, advice please. Hyperthyroid, Graves.
Details of blood tests since August 2021 shown. I was diagnosed as Hyperthyroid at that time with Graves confirmed by TSH ral, not tested since. Testing for vitamin levels at that time were all normal. My GP requested I have a blood test done earlier this month following a request for a repeat prescription
