Doxycycline long term use
Hi, I’m 11 months into my 15 month treatment for CLL. I’m on Ibrutinib with Venetoclax and it’s suited me well, and I’m really pleased that my bloods now appear to be normal. I’m also on Co-Trimoxazole antibiotic and Aciclovir antiviral to deal with any infections should they arise during my treatment

How long does it take for NDT Thyroid-S to leave your system?
I've got to book in for my annual blood test with my GP. I had my thyroid fully removed in 2008 & I'm on T3 only 20mcg 3 X day.A few months ago I swapped to NDT Thyroid-S & I've stopped taking my T3. I feel better than I've felt in years. My question is how long does it take for NDT Thyroid-S to leave

thyroid bloods
hi I always had a higher thyroid reading until I had a partial thyroidectomy. My bloods today are T4 17.2 (12-22) Tsh 0.23 (0.27-4.20) It’s been a while and I’m finding it hard to read this so do you think this is normal ? Thanks

Surprising thyroid results
I was put on 2 grains of armour by a private thyroid doc, at that point I was feeling ok-ish on 50 Levo and 6 t3. I took 2 grains for 3.5 weeks and started to decrease as I was feeling rapidly and increasingly unwell. I also have a low cortisol output all day and this may have contributed to feeling

What is the difference between pre-TT Graves' and post-TT Graves?
Hi all, thank you again for all the helpful comments on my last post. I'm really glad to be a part of this community - I only wish I'd known about it a little over 5 years ago, but perhaps that's a post for another day. I wanted to ask if anyone had any insight on what happens to the body when one's

Ramiprimil and thyroid med - timing of medication
Today I've taken by mistake Ramipril first instead of taking my thyroid medication first. I usually take first my thyroid med, wait for one hour with an empty stomach, and then take the Ramipril. How long should I wait to take my thyroid med after taking Ramipril, so my thyroid med is properly absorbed

Why do all my symptoms suggest hyperthyroid if my results show hypo?
Hi everyone! I got my thyroid results about a month ago - first time ever tested. My GP initially wanted to test my thyroid because of these symptoms: sudden severe anxiety, trouble sleeping, shakiness, palpitations. I've also had increased sweating and some diarrhoea (not bad). I've lost some weight

Recommendation request for 2nd opinion and interpretation of results
I'm looking for feedback (via private DM please) from anyone who has been seen by Mr Barnes (Endocrinologist) at Tunbridge Wells or a Dr Christine Suppelt, Rose Cottage Clinic also in Kent. Would appreciate any perspectives on either clinician, both of whom I found on the Thyroid UK practitioners' list

Is it a thyroid problem? Stories from those who found it wasn't would be welcome.
I've just had an update with my private thyroid doctor who was very helpful when I sounded the alarm on my current meds, and brought my update forward. For a variety of reasons, not least that I'm once again left wondering if this really is a thyroid problem, I've decided to part ways. I've never had

Test Results - How bad is it?
Hi all, I went to the GP as I keep getting sharp pains in my right abdomen (upper quadrant) and multiple bruises appearing beneath my ribcage area, mostly on the right side but sometimes left. The doctor ordered a whole bunch of tests, including thyroid. My results came back abnormal for thyroid. Everything

Just a quick update, Endo appointment 👿
went to Royal Liverpool Endo dept , was hoping to see the consultant who is on TUK Uk list. Unfortunately this did not happen, the person I saw was less than helpful, see I can be tactful, sometimes. Introduced herself as diabetes consultant and she lived up to that name. The first thing she said

looking for a reliable source
I live in the US so any suggestions where I can order T3 /T4 from would be appreciated. I have a dr that I've been going to on and off for years and he's retiring soon and no one is taking over his practice. He's primarily a "diet" dr clinic which is cheaper than going the endo way and believes in NDT
