Surprise blood test
My Practice Pharmacist advised me to have TSH restest this month. I don’t know why except I told them I was swapping back to Accord brand (but they tell me it makes no difference, so 🤷♀️) Anyway, I’m going in the morning, observing protocols. Is it really only vit B that can affect serum? Thanks

Carbimazole
I have had a horrendous few weeks health wise. This is due to fibroids, however what it has distracted me from is the fact my thyroid consultant had doubled my thyroid meds which amongst everything else I just went with. I have been so low in mood, tearful every single day, exhausted, drained and feeling

levothyroxine
hi, I came on here for advice a while ago and discovered that I was taking too little levothyroxine and was advised to get gp to increase it, over a period of time in 3 monthly intervals, in increments of 25 I am now taking 75. The results of the blood test after adding the first 25 after 3 months showed

New Hyperthyroidism diagnosis
Hi all, I am new here and have found reading through all the information I’ve found here invaluable. I have recently been diagnosed as having hyperthyroidism- my story is in my bio. I have my first endocrinologist appointment this week and I’m not sure what to expect. My GP wouldn’t prescribe Carbimazole

TSH and T4 range calculator thingy
Hi Last year I got lots of helpful advice on here. I'm feeling poorly again now and am trying to show my GP that I need more levo. There used to be a formula or calculator on here that would tell you where your result was within the range. Does anyone recognise what I am thinking of please, and

Eye brow hair loss
Hi, a few days ago I posted my story on this forum. Today I would like to focus on one problem in particular, eye brow hair loss. I always had rather thin and far from perfect eye brows, but since I had my surgery it got much worse. I feel very bad and embarrassed about it 😞 I understand that

Thoughts on test results
This is my first post. I’ve been avidly reading back through past information and found it very empowering - I’ve been inspired to take control of my health. I’ve just had results back from a Medichecks thyroid panel and would appreciate your thoughts. Full information about my history and symptoms

Hypo, HRT and weight gain?
Hi. Have people who are hypo and use HRT gained weight since starting it? Everything I read re HRT, claims it can cause weight gain, which to a Hypo/Hashi sufferer, this is the last thing you want to hear. What have been people's experience? Thanks, appreciate it.
