CT3M works thank you Paul Robinson
It took me 8 years to get a diagnosis of Hashimoto’s ultimately via a private Endo and private blood tests as my GP was clueless. After a Hemi-T and with a TSH of 50 the NHS prescribed Levo. As I continued to feel rough I went back to my Endo and I tried NDT which also didn’t work as still tired, depressed

Hashis and Graves? Watch and Wait has now caught up.
About 15 months or so, I had an appointment for a thyroid specialist as my thyroid tests pointed towards Graves. I had been hypothyroid for about 17years when my different results meant my gp prescribing less and less levo. When the amount became 12.5mcg, (after an original 150 mcg) I asked to be

hypothyroid pins and needles in feet
I have been Hypo for 20+ years and since last winter I have pins and needle like pain in my feet. This is almost constant but becomes much worse when cold. Toes are cold to the touch and not pink. Dr has diagnosed Reynards but I’m not sure this is correct as it doesn’t appear in bursts. Does anyone

For the last year I have had ongoing health issues. A burst ulcer, constant chest infections, and most recently a TIA and atrial afibulation. My GP says none of it is connected to my Hashimoto’s . I have been self medicating with NDT for a number of years very successfully with no problems. I was paying

Pneumonia
Hi. I had my follow up chest x-ray for pneumonia 3 weeks ago and the good news is that it's come back clear. I'm really pleased but I'm still coughing at night and feel a bit breathless in the mornings. I told the doctor when he rang me with the results and he said, the infection has gone but lungs take

flu and covid booster
I had several texts from the NHS inviting me for both flu and covid shots due to my medical condition. My only condition is AF. I booked in with my local pharmacy today, but he would not give me the booster as I am now on Flecanide and he said under new guidelines it is not recommended. I am very confused

Hi allI had a really nasty cold/cough which has left me with a bad cough and a flare up of asthma. Currently on holiday in India and although I am taking Fostair with a a couple of shots of ventolin inbetween, the cough is not dissipating. It's particularly bad at night.

Dr. Sanjay Gupta. Cardiologist York. UK. Has anyone had dealings with him?
I realise I will need to be Privately messaged by anyone with information. I have just come across Dr. Gupta and his work about how thyroid issues affect the heart. It’s not the usual stuff about CHD. His information is thyroid specific. A breath of fresh air it would seem. He seems to work both

Lung nodule
I had a CT scan in hospital while being treated for pneumonia. I understand it could be due to infections or scaring in my lungs. It is also quite common (35%) for people to have these. I going back for an x ray in early January.

advice please?
After having my 3rd child, I was not feeling good and had my tpo tested which came back as 390 but tsh was fine -2.9, a few months later I had the tests done again and tpo had climbed to 550 and tsh 7.9 and t4 was 10. It took me 6 weeks to get hold of my GP who then prescribed levothyroxine 50mc once

Advice on latest test results
Hi, I got diagnosed with underactive thyroid in September 2023. I was put on 50g of Levothyroxine and iron tablets as I had low ferritin and anemic. My latest results show I'm no longer anemic but my ferritin is still relativity low despite having been on iron tablets for 2 months. Dr seems to be

Iron blood test results are back, please could you take a look for me?
In a previous post I gave my Ferritin result from a blood test in March (this was 36.90) and I was recommended to check my other iron levels before taking iron supplements . I now have these results back and would be really grateful if you could let me know your thoughts please : Medichecks BLOOD TEST

Mum's battle
Hi all, Mum has suffered from adrenal insufficiency over the past 15 years, as well as pernicious anemia, hypothyroidism, low WBC count and was hospitalised several times with low electrolytes. The electrolyte imbalance was caused by the cortisol acetate supplement she takes. She was numerous doctors
