tired
I’ve been trying to get my t3 levels up getting a private prescription from a gp. Im now on 15 mcg split into 3 doses plus 50 mcg levothyroxine. I still feel awful and worry that as I was only sub clinical I’ve maybe overdone it I did have clinical symptoms of fatigue, weight gain, low mood raynauds

Long term -confused - Thyroid & pain in neck?
Hi, I'll try and be brief. It's been over 3yrs since I thought I had a thyroid problem. I was fobbed off with antidepressants and it took me years to get off them. I am still having problems and I know it is not just anxiety! I suffer with DPDR - dissociation. I feel spaced out often and disconnected

Taking Carbimazole and going out of range.
I am taking 7 mg carbimazole every day. My latest blood tests are abnormal . TSH 5.07 mlu/L 0.27. - 4. 2. Should I be taking more or less carbimazole to bring me into range. Thank you Val

Any tips on getting through an increase in levothyroxine and feeling a bit rubbish
Hi everyone, after a too quick reduction in levothyroxine and an return of symptoms I’ve had an increase. I’m 3 weeks in to an increase to 100mcg daily and then in 4 weeks I’m to very slowly increase liothyronine from 10mcg to 20mcg (I’ll do this v gradually). I’m feeling really rubbish, exhausted

Tibolone HRT offered for pain relief of Pudendal Nueralgia alongside 3 injections of Zoladex into the abdominal wall?
Hi everyone, I had a gynecologist offer me Tibolone HRT tablets alongside 3 injections of Zoladex into the abdominal wall 4x weekly. Looking these medications up I've seen a ton of side effects like most meds. The gynaecologist agreed I had normal hormones and no gyno problems or endometriosis but being

Another question: did anyone have all their joints crunching, clicking, and sore when their b12 dropped into deficiency range? My joints in my spine, and hips, shoulder, especially. They click and crunch since I dipped into serious neuro symptoms when b12 likely tanked last September. I also had genitourinary

Affect of Alendronic acid if needing dental work?
This aspect bothers me as well as the implications of taking Alendronic acid. At age 81 after taking AA for about 18 months, I stopped it after I was prescribed HRT patches for another problem . Whilst HRT protects bones to a certain extent , I believe it doesn't increase bone density as does AA.

More advice please on blood tests
Hi again, and further to my last post could someone please advise me on recent blood tests. After appointment with Roseway labs Pharmacist on 23rd April I increased T3 to 10ug daily . Since my previous bloods showed T4 at the top of the range I reduced that from 100ug daily to 100ug 5 days per week

I helped a long term sufferer today
Got chatting recently to a lady on FB who lives in my town. She happened to mention that she is hypo and been on meds for about 6yrs. Funnily enough she is registered with the same GP Surgery as me. Anyway she was complaining that she was always so tired and achy etc and I asked what dosage she was

Post-private GP update
Evening. A few people asked me to post an update following on from my visit to a private GP today. Well, it certainly wasn’t what I’d expected, which is to say I hadn’t expected much to happen other than another another blood test being needed and possibly a plan of action. What actually happened

Elderly mum exhausted, overweight, unmotivated, yellow tinge skin on sides of face
Hello, I'm really struggling trying to get the GP to sort my mum out. She's nearly 88yrs old and in the last few years has put on an excessive amount of weight, she was a size 12, now she is almost a 20! She is absolutely exhausted, just says she has no energy at all and barely gets dressed each day

Advice please
Hello, hypothyroid here, currently taking 225mg levothyroxine daily. Visited the Dr (NHS) last week for a few ongoing issues, including a lump in my neck (just right of neck centre) and was seen primarily by a student Dr who’s findings were then discussed/assessed with GP. Very convinced it’s a goitre
