Start all over again
well it is just after 8pm here in Oz and I just had a call from rheumatology to say stop taking imuran as my liver test came back and they have gone from 240 to 860 in the last few weeks. So now the good news is I have to start the three month wait again to be eligible for biologics on something new.

first timer
Hi all!! I am brand new here…. In the past few years I’ve had 2 MIs, and a CABGx2 (9/17/14)… (and lost my only brother to Afib in Sept)… I was feeling great when a sharp pain over my heart through my left shoulder to the back of my neck… the pain was intense when I laid down…. I went to the hospital

and so it continues
Well it has been a whirlwind couple of weeks. Hubby home from New Zealand after 7 weeks with his kids, glad he did as it may be the last time they see him. Off to specialist with him as he is getting very deaf and I suspect early stages of dementia so doesn't understand what is being said to him. He

no symptoms, doubting need for surgery
Hi all, newbie here. Looking for some advice about surgery. I've had a pretty big thyroid nodule for over ten years, several FNAs and ultrasounds all came back benign. It's about 5cm but has stopped growing. Until last year all my blood tests came back normal but during my recent second pregnancy routine

Partial thyroidectomy on Tuesday would love some advice and tips please...?
Hi there! Well it seems like I have been waiting forever for this op and it's nearly here. I can't lie, I'm quite nervous and trying my best to stay positive and keep calm. My biopsy showed 3 in diagnosis so it was recommended to remove the right side where the nodules are etc. My main concern is that

Autoantibodies and depression: evidence for a causal link?
We see a lot of people here with, either currently or in the past, depression. It is often suggested and believed that inappropriate thyroid hormone levels can cause depression. This might well be true - but this paper suggests that elevated antibodies might be a cause. Mind, give current attitudes

After the Iodine I went from Hyper to Hypothyroid after several years. I have recently been put on levothyroxine 25mcg to add

Pain between shoulder blades. Connected to thyroid nodule?
I am still struggling to understand my blood test results compared to everyone else. There are loads of posts on here from people who have many hypo symptoms and feel terrible on so much lower results than mine. My TSH is 12.8 (0.35-5.0) and ft4 9.0 (9.0-20.0) but really I don't have symptoms apart

Some questions...
Hi there, I'm scheduled to have a partial thyroidectomy in the future( going to see endo today for apt to find out more). The consultant has said that because I'm only having half of my thyroid removed that hopefully I won't have to have medication. Has anyone else any experience here and in your opinion

FNA pros and cons
After TT in August I have an appointment at Christies next Monday to discuss RAI. I was wondering if some of you more knowledgeable people could give me an idea of the pros and cons so I can go forewarned. As a bit of background, I had a partial thyroidectomy in May, and a follicular carcinoma was found

Blood test results after reducing dosage of Levothyroxine.
I have been taking Levothyroxine since 1994 after having had a partial thyroidectomy and being unhappy on T3. On the advice of a junior consultant who assured me that I should take the dose that makes me fell well I have always been on 200 mcg. In the past 2 years my GP practice have made efforts to

6 was post partial thyroidectomy
Hi folks, 2 1/2 yrs ago my husband went for a regular mot at drs where they told him he had a goitre. He was fit and very active at the time. The doctor arranged for him to be given a radioactive iodine pill and that was it. Since receiving that pill he has gone downhill dramatically. He has no energy

Is a persistent cough of a week a worry?
I had a partial thyroidectomy in October. This was found to be cancerous. I had the remaining half removed in December which was clear. I have had a cough for a week which is very annoying, a cross between tickly and hourse and it promote funny looks as once it starts I cannot stop. Is it anything to

My T3 has arrived! How to take it?
Hi all, Well based on a lot of great advice on here, I bit the bullet and ordered 25mcg of Cynomel tablets from Mexico (the reputable one). My T3 levels were either rock bottom or borderline low since my partial thyroidectomy 18 months ago. I got sick of getting nowhere with my docs who refused to even

DESPERATE FOR SOME ADVICE AND GUIDANCE
Hi I apologise in advance for the length of this post! In 2003 I hade a human heart valve replacement for a congenital valve defect (not sure if this is relevant). In 2012 I had a 3 1/2 gland parathyroidectomy and an unscheduled partial thyroidectomy. The surgeon came to see me the morning after my operation
