Advice please
Please could I receive advice on these latest MMH private test results. I increased T4 to 100 mcg from 75/100 ten weeks ago due to low T4 (for me but within range) now T4 abnormal. Palpitations were the main reason to increase and these subsided once I did. All protocols followed on timings etc

Is it RLS or something else?
Hi All, For the last few years, 6 of 7 nights, sometimes 7 of 7 nights a week, 10-15minutes after getting into bed and finally relaxing, I begin to get a tingling sensation down my right leg. It begins at my hip, and can sometimes travel as low as to my toes, making them twitch/spasm. My GP doesn't

Hypothyroidism help!
hello, I have not long found out I have hypothyroidism. T4 4.1 T3 1.5 TSH 87.1 along with Hashimotos and Vit D deficient. I’ve started on medication (50mg) and I feel so ill. Far worse than I did before. My biggest issue is feeling sick and not being able to manage my sugar levels. I feel like I’m having

Incorrect testing advice from clinic - BFN at 9DPET
Hello, I was wondering if anyone has had the same experience as me in terms of early testing. I was instructed to do a pregnancy test today by my clinic which is 9 days post double FET. My test was negative so I informed my clinic who rang me two hours later to say they had given me the wrong test date

How do you come down from the pred high?
I wrote what follows as a response to someone else mentioning the pred high but then realised it should have been a new post. So here it is again, edited and with a heading. I seem to feel hyperactive all the time, at the moment, especially if I do exercises. Last night I went out to the local exercise

Borderline TSH during cancer treatment
Hi folks! Haven't been on here for some time but in the interim I have been treated for Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia. Had chemo in September last year which was successful (minus a few hiccups like fungal pneumonia that put me in ICU!) and currently on home oral chemo, antifungals and antibiotics daily

Help with test results including vitamins
I have just had test results from Blue Horizon including vitamins. I take 75 Levothyroxine and 10 t3 self sourced. Levo reduced by doctor due to suppressed TSH I persuaded her not to reduce again which she wanted to do by taking in last blood results with t4 and t3. I always felt well on 100 Levo and

Low HCG levels
Hi all, just looking for some hope I guess. I had 5day FET. Was testing positive lightly from day 6. Has blood test 12 days after it was 72 then 4 days later was 205. Now I'm going to have my 3rd test today. Dr said it doesn't sound very promising 😔 my urine tests have progressively got darker but no
