NHS no longer testing T3??
I have hypothyroidism following a partial thyroidectomy in 2016. I’ve not felt ‘well’ since then and have battled with my GP to raise my Levothyroxine. Earlier this year I paid for private TSH, T4 and T3 testing which showed that T4 and T3 were low and I was allowed a 25mg increase in my Levo. Blood

Successful Ablation and given the all clear !
Hi just and update on my 11 year old Daughter who was diagnosed with AVRNT 3 years ago. She went in for her cardiac ablation in December on her 11 Birthday and I'm happy to say since that she's off all medication and has not had 1 single issue since :-) We've been given the all clear at her follow up

Low pressure after cardiac ablation
I had cardiac ablation two weeks ago for Afib. Four days ago, I started having very low blood pressure—72/54, or lower. Has anyone else experienced this?

Mammograms
My oncologist doesn’t feel mammograms are necessary since I’m being treated for MBC. I’ve had a partial mastectomy of my right breast, chemo and radiation in 2005. It metastasized to both lungs in 2016. I had massive chemo again. Now I’m on Letrozole and Ibrance and everything is stable. But I wanted

Am I getting too much Levothyroxine post-thyroidectomy?
Hello everyone - Please be patient, I have a long story! I had a partial thyroidectomy in 1979 (when I was 26) because of a large nodule. I did not have to take any medication and my thyroid levelswere apparently "normal" over the years., although I have really never felt completely well since that

Well my last AF attack was end of October 2018 🤞🏼and my medication was changed yet again, and seems to be working apart from having no energy at all , my cardiologist has referred me for a cardiac ablation but she was hoping the new medication would work and wouldn’t have to have the ablation, I’m

Partial thyroidectomy
Hi everyone I had a partial thyroidectomy last year in August. Every month since the surgery I have steadily felt worse! My endo placed me on a low dose of t4 which is only 50mcg and without telling him I added 5mcg of t3 to the dose as he won’t agree. I have only been on this dose for three weeks and

3 months after partial thyroidectomy
Hello all you lovely helpful people. I’m now 3 months post partial thyroidectomy and could do with some advice again! I feel I've come to a complete standstill in my recovery. Still have a very stiff and sore neck (especially the strap muscles) and my voice has lost all of its top range 😢. I’m a newsreader

Partial Thyroidectomy
Hi all I had a large nodule removed and half my thyroid on left side around 6 weeks ago. The test came back clear.. But I'm exhausted all the time. My neck is still a little sore. And I'm having terrible pain in the tight side of my neck and shoulder, so bad sometimes I can't lift my arm. I also feel

Still not feeling well 5 weeks after partial thyroidectomy
Hi everyone I had a partial thyroidectomy 5 weeks ago. They removed the right side as I had a 5cm nodule (plus some smaller ones) which were growing down into my chest and pressing on my windpipe. The operation was not straightforward as I had a haematoma and had to go back into surgery for over an hour

Shortness of breath
I had a Cardiac Ablation for AFib seven weeks ago. I am still experiencing shortness OB breath that has not improved. I have discussed this with my cardiologist and he says it will get better. I returned to work two weeks after the ablation and I am having a very hard time working because of the shortness

I need a doctor to prescribe T3 for me - Can you recommend one?
Dear readers, I have been on levothyroxine since the late 80's and am now having heart problems and diabetes because my metabolism is so slow. Over the last10 years GPs and endos have repeatedly reduced my dosage from 125mcg to 100because of my high TSH. As this turns me into a Cretin (a 19th century

VT diagnosis and cardiac ablation. Would you do it?
I’ve recently been through the full gamut of testing (ECG, Holter, CT scan, stress test). Everything came back normal except for my holter which did show a small run of VT. I had a few ectopic beats during the stress test and I feel those several times a day, which I hate, but have been told repeatedly
