Dr added more T3 and labs show no change, what happened?
Hi everyone, I finally after having Hashis for over 30 years found a great dr when I moved, who is willing to work with me and disregard TSH. She took me off my previous combo of 100 mcg synthroid and 5 mcg cytomel and started me on120 mcg of NP Thyroid back in October. It was a great help

First results after switching to NDT. Help pls ...
Hi beautiful people, I shared a number of posts here about my thyroid journey. I switched to Erfa brand NDT 2 weeks ago after being on levo for 2 decades. I started from 0.5 grain, increased to 1 grain and then to 1,5 grains. I've been on 1,5 grains for about 5 days now. I checked my bloods 2 weeks

Cold & sore throat PAF
hi, I’ve had a cold and cough for 7 days now and having been having AF episodes lasting from 30mins - 5hours almost daily. Normally I would get an episode once a month at worst. Can colds and coughs bring on more regular occurances of AF?

UK herbal remedy ingredient check by UCL School of Pharmacy: Many poor quality products, though those with the THR label fare better

Advice with Graves Disease
Hi All - I was diagnosed with Graves Disease in June 2023 and prescribed Carbimazole 20mg plus Propranolol 80mg Sustained Release. I have never actually met my endocrinologist owing to NHS strikes, so as a 60yo man I feel pretty alone with this condition as I don't know anyone else who has it. After

Hello from New Zealand
My adult son was diagnosed with hypothyroidism from a routine test after a slight head injury during Covid lockdown. I have not been able to lose weight and so asked my GP for thyroid function test - and sure enough!! So was started on Eltroxin. Lately my usually reasonably well controlled BP went haywire

Flu won’t go away.
I was diagnosed four years ago with emphysema. I have had no symptoms. Six weeks ago I got the flu. It’s been a rough six weeks. Getting my breath back and my energy back. Now every morning I can’t breathe and have to use an inhaler. Never had to before. I’ve had a CAT scan of my lungs, and it has not

Another day another other saga!!You couldn’t make it up!
Thanks everyone for your advice yesterday. It’s been a learning curve & I will be able to navigate better next time. I went to A & E first thing & in triage the nurse said it’s sounds like you have flu. So she did a nasal swab. She asked me to wear a mask & I said oh I’ve done a Covid test. She said

Diagnosis
This is my 4th week in hospital. I’ve had 3 chest x-rays, ct scans and mris of all the bony bits of my body to try and find the source of infection that was showing with spikes in temperature, they told me I’ve got pneumonia!

egg collection and bad cold/flu
Once again I’m a cheap date and after only one week of stims I’ve triggered last night for egg collection tomorrow morning (Thursday) everything looks about the same as last few times about 7-8 follicles ready (between 17-22mm) and some others not far behind. I am really worried though as I had a bit

thyroid and high blood pressure
Hi all So have been struggling to get a GP appointment to discuss my Thyroid meds. After MUCH sulking from me my medication was reduced to 75mcg from 100. Although I managed to hold out for 100 whilst I was on holiday- feel not so good so have been trying to get my meds reinstated. This since end

Hand and foot numbness
Hi. I recently have had vibration in my toe and pain on top of my right foot and numbness and pain in my right hand. I was wondering if my thyroid was related. My graves was under control but when I thought I may have covid my doctor said to quadruple my dose of methimazole for a week. That was little

FET in 4 days and nasty cold
I am so worried now, our FET is this Thursday and some nasty cold got me this weekend. I am afraid to take any cold/flu meds so it won't mess up with my lining etc 🙈 Has anyone been not well before or during transfer and it affected the outcome?
