Vitamin D and Endocrinologist - I'm speechless!
I have been struggling with autoimmune thyroiditis for 6 years and am currently on 150mcg a day of Eltroxin. I was feeling so unwell that, in the end, I went to see a private endocrinologist. My vitamin D level is 29.7 (<30) - tested by doctor, and so the endo gave me 6 days of 50,000 iu Cholecalciferol

Seen Endo today - all set for another year
Hubby had day off and even though we had snow we drove to Sheffield. It takes an hour and a half to get there and it was not only quieter on the M1 but the hospital was too. I showed "the man" my blood test results TSH <0.01, Free T4 23.9 (9-19), Free T3 5.4 (2.6-5.7) and my vitamin D came back at

I am taking Apixaban (Eliquis 2) for the last 12 weeks as a blood thinner as I have AF.I also have Osteoporosis and take
Calcichew

Is this as good as it gets?
I am new to this site and this is my first question. In 2008 I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. The internist prescribed Levothyroxine for me, which I still use. I am female, early 40's and vegetarian for more than 30 years. I am now using 175mg of Levothyroxine a day. I take this in the morning

Thyroxine and osteoporosis
I am taking 150 levothyroxine following thyroid cancer 3 years ago. I also have osteoporosis for which I have been prescribed alenduric acid (which I am worried about taking) and calcichew tablets. However, I understand that thyroxine can be harmful to the bones...does anyone else manage both conditions

Could Crampex help with myofascial pain?
Apologies if this is a really silly question! I happened to see these tablets in Boots. They are actually for people whose calves cramp during the night, and contain magnesium, vitamin D3, and nicotinic acid. Nicotinic acid was in chillblain tablets that Boots used to sell years ago. Magnesium, of

I have just had my blood results back and have been told that I need to have a Parathyroid Hormone test and then begin taking Colecalciferol. I am currently on 100mcg Levo and am experiencing lots of symproms such as fatigue, extreme dry skin, mental 'fog' and irregular menstrual cycle. My GP does

Feeling rubbish
Since joining this forum I realise I have had hypo symptoms since 2008. My gp refuses to ttreat me for hypo as all my test results have come back within range (although all borderline) despite my long list of symptoms. I am feeling particularly sorry for my self just now over something silly. All

Interview with Dr. Byrd at ASH 2012 on new medications, especially ibrutinib
Hi, Dr Byrd is my physician at OSU and arguably has more clinical experience with ibrutinib than anyone else in the world. On my blog ( http://bkoffman.blogspot.com ) tonight, I posted the first of a 4 part interview done at ASH 2012. It's 10 minutes well spent. The data is impressive, Just

Question: What to do next? TSH and Thyroid peroxidase antibody level are normal.
Sorry for the long post. Shortly after birth of my 1st child (February 2004), i had enlarged Thyroids and I was given levothyroxin. The Thyroids went back to normal size after aspiration and so I only took Levo for a short time. Recently, over the past year, I have had the following symptoms: tiredness
