Advice needed on thyroxine management
I am hoping someone can advise me about my thyroxine dose. Here's a little background: In September 2023, I was underweight and having trouble gaining weight and suffering from anxiety. I had been on 75mcg of levothyroxine daily for an underactive thyroid. I had recently developed pins and needles

Endocrine Nurse appointment but no plan in place plus weight loss
Hi everyone It's me again. I hope you are all doing ok. Last time I posted I was feeling really unwell on my dose of T3 but had an upcoming appointment on 6th March. On the day it was a different Endocrine Nurse who I didn't know & was difficult to understand due to her accent but basically told me

First antibody test results
I was diagnosed about 19 years ago with ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Every now and again I ask for various blood tests to be repeated to rule out any underlying illnesses that could be masked by the ME (blood count, kidney/liver function etc). On a few occasions over the past 7-8-ish years, my TSH

Blood Pressure Medication
Unfortunately I now have to start BP medication and GP can only seem to find capsules. As I have problems with Acacia Powder and Cellulose and these seem to be in all BP medication, GP has not found me ones I can take after seeming to look for the last fortnight. Is there anyone on this forum who

What Now?
So I had my laparoscopy last May, confirmed endo, coil fitted. Pain returned after a few months. In November I was put on Zoladex injections with Tibilone HRT tablets, this helped the pain a lot and reduced it to a few times within the 3 month period of being on it. Now the last 2 weeks the pain has

TSH RECEPTOR ANTIBODIES RESULTS
Hi, got this test done a week ago and the results are 1.26 IU/L (<1.75) so antibodies are not raised. I was querying Hashimotos or Graves so I assume this rules out Graves but does not confirm Hashimotos? Thanks

Cannot get my TSH in range - help needed please, should I switch to levo?
Hello, I’ve been taking Thyroid-S NDT for 6+years and I’ve been trying to get my TSH to be close to range but cannot seem to get anywhere. I’ve tracked my ranges from 2022 and I’m still no closer. I’m nervous as when medichecks send my results they always say there’s higher risk of heart issues and osteoporosis

Goitre and antibodies but bloods all fine
Hi, I developed a fairly big lump in my neck in July 23. Did the 2 week wait thing and had an ultrasound and saw an ENT consultant. They diagnosed a thyroid nodule and said it looked normal with no need for FNA. Consultant asked for endo to see me and I am still waiting for this or any acknowledgment

Ferritin dropping, FT3 is not great
Hello wise ones. I'm coming up to a year since a diagnosis of Hashimotos, and on Levothyroxine. I've been trying to get the dosage increased in tiny increments of 12.5 ug after each blood test. So far I've been successful but it feels like slow progress. I'm currently taking 87.5 ug daily. My doctor

Help with T3
I would really appreciate some advice please. I have included my original post below. So last week I went to see another Endocrinologist, they confirmed what I was told by the first Endocrinologist who I saw earlier that week - basically as my TSH levels are within range, I did not need an increase
