I finally got a GP to listen
I thought I would share this as I finally had success at getting a GP to listen to me. What helped to convince them was: 1. A ticked list of symptoms using the Thyroid UK list https://thyroiduk.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Signs-and-Symptoms-of-Hypothyroidism-V1.1-.doc.pdf 2. An excel file with my

Thyroid testing
Hi everyone, I’m new to this group and to having thyroid problems. I discovered high antibodies in a blood test 6 months ago while investigating what turned out to be premenstrual dysphoric disorder. I have just tested again and they are still high, and my hair has quite drastically started thinning

Hello, i got my blood test results today regarding my thyroid. Any advice would be appreciated as i am very confused with what i should do. I was put on levothyroxine 50 mcg and then during oestrogen stimulation on 75 mcg due to high TSH 2.7 mIU/L (prior to stimulation) during my IVF. My TSH results

Hypo symptoms despite blood test that indicates I could be hyperthyroid
Hi there, I recently received some blood test results that I wanted some advice on interpreting, I am currently on 11/4 grains of armour thyroid, and still have debilitating fatigue and confusion, I really just wanted to know why this could still be the case. Any advice would be massively appreciated

Is this right??
Hello everyone! I am diagnosed with Hashimoto’s (elevated TPO antibody reading of varying levels up to 1500 at one point). However I have never been offered treatment as my TSH and Free Ts have largely remained within the acceptable NHS ranges despite remaining symptomatic for the past 10 years or more

Normal TPO and high TgAb and pregnancy
Hey everyone! What does that mean when your TPO is within range but your TgAb are seriously elevated? I have just found out I am pregnant and am still waiting on my thyroid panel from the GP but also went for the Medichecks full thyroid check. I know what to do with my levothyroxine but the antibodies

How do I get my consultant to agree to increase my T4 dosage?
After a seven years long journey and the fight of my life I am on Levothyroxine, 125 mcg, the brand being NorthStar. I am so much better and have much more energy. My results from Dec '20 were FT4 17.8 and TSH 0.09. Results from Nov '19 were FT4 19.3, TSH 0.75 and FT3 4.8. It wasn't until I had private

Appointment as aspected 😢
As expected, I got nowhere. Consultant apologised and said he knows it’s frustrating but as results are in range, he can’t do anything. He said normal range is the average range of the normal population and I’m in that range for everything so as an endocrinologist, he can’t do anymore. Said the people

Thyroid and vitamin levels
Hi guys, I posted in here before that I was supplemented with eltroxin as my TSH was just under 4 and my fertility specialist wanted it below 2.5 for TTC. I had a concern that in August before supplementation my TSH was 3.33 but my T4 was 14.4. In November my TSH was 2.13 but T4 fell to 12.8. My doctor

1st results since adding T3 to Levo. Worried about my appt with Endo who says is going to be looking at my TSH. Any help /tips appreciated
I am going for my hospital bloods next week and then will get scheduled a phone appt with endo as my 3 month trial has ended. I am looking for advice how to best approach her and any good papers as to why supressed TSH isn't bad. Last time I wrote ahead of my appt with the kind help of a TUK member

Difference between autoimmune thyroid disease and non autoimmune
Hi to all the knowledgeable people on here 🙂 I was diagnosed hypo in 2013 and my antibody count was negative. The docs have refused to retest antibodies again so last year I had a private test and they were negative again. The doctor's note that came with the test results said that this indicates

Pre-stage Hashimoto's?
Hi there I'm new to this group :-) I am not certain I have Hashimoto's but I suspect I am in a "pre-stage" if there is such a thing? I would welcome any advice or input please.. For the last 2 years I have been to and from the doctors as I have been utterly exhausted. I'm very fit, healthy and sporty
