Hashimotos blood test results - Iron supplementation advice needed! Thank you
Hi again, This forum has been the most helpful support. Could you support me in understanding next steps following the below test results? In particular, my iron panel results seem to be very low, and I am not sure how to correct that. How should I start to supplement? I was diagnosed with hashimotos

Hashimotos - Help interpreting bloods
Hi again, Could you support me in understanding next steps following the below test results? I was diagnosed with hashimotos in 2018. On 50mg of T4 since then. GP reckoned everything was normal. Since January this year I have been struggling very badly. 39yo male. I am three weeks into starting

Chest feeling off
Recently was prescribed steroids for 7 days about 2 weeks ago. Last few days my chest just feels off like heavy and as if I’m hungry for air like wanting to gulp. Before the steroids peak flow had dropped to 60% of best and since finishing them it is 80% but a fews days yo-yoing to 70% of best. Wondering

Thyroid test results - any thoughts please?
Hi everyone, I’ve had some repeat bloods taken last week. When I posted my last results from Feb this year, it was suggested that they indicated possible central/secondary hypothyroidism and low-ish B12. Can anyone advise me if these latest results are an improvement, or if I should still seek some

need guidance
Hello all, I'm new here. I was researching and came across this group. I'm asking for advice actually for my daughter. Here is the story. My daughter as a child was slightly overweight at age of puberty. When she was about 20, we went to a dr who ordered a thyroid US. Results multi nodules. No big concern

Affect of exercise on Thyroid levels
Hi everyone. I, realised back in March that my long suffering with nerve pain had got considerably better. I don't know why it suddenly reduced. I'm just really pleased that it did! I decided to get my health and weight under control as I am now able to exercise. I started doing three or four walks

Trelegy ellipta post inhalation cough anyone?
I have been on this med for one month. I was taking Fostair Nexthaler 100 mgs but post Covid in October I was struggling to recover my lung capacity. I find that for an hour or so after my once a day inhalation I have a tickly cough. I do rinse my mouth out and gargle afterwards.

peak flow after preventer
Hi, the Respiratory consultant has asked me, by letter, to record my PF after using my preventer (Luforbec). I’m wondering how long to wait after using it to repeat my PF? Any ideas? Thanks.

levothyroxine and antibiotics?
I’m currently taking antibiotics for an infection after having blood test. Should I be taking Levothyroxine at a different time to antibiotics. Not sure if it will affect absorption of thyroxine?

New blood results - Need advice
TSH: 1.82 FT4: 19 (11-23) FT3: 5.6 (3.4-5.9) I was on 225mcg and lowered to 150mcg. These blood tests were after 16 weeks on 150. I took two weeks off of 225mcg then started 150. I feel awful. Terrible fatigue and brain fog. Was told I possibly had a thyroid storm. My FT3 has never been this

Restless Legs - changing treatment.

Over the years with the need to increase the dose - now 0.7 mg. Sleeps only about 2 + 2 hours a night. Has severe restlessness in the legs, like a wasps

levothyroxine
Diagnosed eight weeks ago underactive thyroid even though I had no symptoms. 25mg given and 12 days later reduced to 12.5 as I was so ill. 4 weeks later I was bedridden, severe headaches and unable to urinate so took myself off them as Surgery would not respond. Informed Surgery what I had done they

Roseway labs
Do Roseway Labs request GP details and ask to write to them? Also, if I request T3, will they need proof that I am taking T4? If so, what proof do they require and how do I submit it? My last blood test was 7 weeks ago, is this too far away if this is what is required? I would be grateful for information

Suboptimal Cortisol levels following Synacthen test
I’ve just turned 60 and used to be a sportsperson. I’ve been on predisolene for 5 1/2 years and unable to get below 5mg despite several slow attempts. My rheumy suggested a short synacthen test via Endo which was 8 months later. I barely function on 5mg with doing bare minimum, giving up my small flower

T3 (Cytomel): How would you fit it in these results? Or would you? And all the mistakes I have made on this journey
Latest results (overjoyed to be finally here) - TSH .74 (.32 to 4) T4 14 (9 to 19) T3 4.2 (2.6 to 5.8) I am on 262.5 mcg levothyroxine (Note: In 50s so 50×5 & 1/4 of a 50) I feel what I would deem pleasantly okay. Always have felt the best on NDT, but I needed so much I could no longer afford it. And

Tiromol T3 - Any good etc?
Would be people be so kind as to tell me how they got on with the T3 brand tiromol? I am just trying the odd 25mcg tablet here and there along with my Thybon Henning. Tiromol is a little easier on the wallet which is one of the reasons I have decided to try it. Many thanks.

Sue perhaps you can help me, I have been successfully relying on diet for years but RLS seems to be catching up. I am in Australia. Perhaps its simply a matter of getting older (currently 79) but a couple of other things might be a problem. I tore a hamstring muscle or tendon that apparently caused
