Feeling pathetic...
Sitting at the hospital in the midst of a synacthen test and feeling sorry for myself. So I thought I'd vent on here to a group of lovely folk who understand what it's like to appear normal on the outside but struggling on the inside! Like most on here I hate having to admit I can't do what I used to

Blood thinners and ferritin levels
For the last few months, I have been suffering from low ferritin levels and wondering if it could be caused by Edoxaban. I take a course of iron tablets, feel okay for a few weeks and then it starts again. Just wondering if anybody has also experienced this.

I’ve now had my TPG result and it was 47 (<34) range . They also did my T3 which was 4.27 (3.1 - 6.8) range. T4 was 22.5 (11-23) range. My T4 has never been this high. They also re did my TSH which was only done 2 days earlier. This time it was 2.9, yet only 2 days earlier it was 4.4. GP said not

Results - advice please
Can I have some advice as to what I should do. Even though my energy levels seem ok, I have been feeling anxious, brain fog, suffering from palpitations and starting to feel low mood too. I wasn't going to get these bloods done until October but then decided I would - regardless of the cost - as I

Dr. Mark Porter's B12 Times article
Further to deniseinmilden's post I decided to risk my credit card and subscribed to the free trial of The Times to get the article. Here it is, for better or for worse!

Bloating and thyroxine hormone absorption
Would bloating of the digestive system after some liquid medication I have been given for an infection affect the T4 tablet absorbtion? I am also avoiding lactose and have noticed an improvement in the absorption but I have not managed gluten at the moment due to trying to recover. I know T4 is absorbed

Help with test results
Hi there I am trying to get a better understanding of some test results before I start taking any medication recommendations from my GP. I have had some tests done this year (in Feb and August) which have shown my TSH at 8.5 and then 13.5 . Both taken before 10am. I didn’t have. FT3 but my T4 was

Since my menopause I feel like my T3 is needing upped. Any advice on my recent blood tests?
My t.s.h was sitting at about 7.9 and I'm not feeling at my optimal. Usually my T.s.h is in between 2.5 -4.5 ish. Since menopause and getting older I feel I definitely need an upped dose! Any advice from those with t3 experience. My T4 is low at 4ish and my t3 is high because of my treatment at 8ish

Transitioning to Armour Thyroid
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid at 21 and I've also got Hashimoto's. I recently changed from Levo/T3 to Armour, under the guidance of a lovely private endo, and I'm currently on three and a half grains per day, split into two doses. I wondered if anyone else has had side effects

Primary Thyroid Dysfunction Is Prevalent in Hidradenitis Suppurativa and Marked by a Signature of Hypothyroid Graves’ Disease
Over the years we have had several members report having Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Yet little has been known or understood about this disorder. Just now, I noticed this paper, and thought it worth mentioning previous posters. Not something I'd usually do but the number is modest, and I suspect that

Started candida diet and feel over medicated
Good morning First I attach my latest results: as you can see there were done in May. I see a private GP (through a menopause clinic). I take novo which she prescribes - T4 / T3 100. My question is: I have not felt "right" for a while. I know, from previous stool tests (a while back) that I have candida

Advice on labs, high RT3, high SBHG, low T
This is my first real post on this forum. I'd appreciate if experienced members could take a look at my labs and history and let me know what they think. I'm a 46-year-old male from Canada but living in France for the past 10 years. I've had deteriorating health issues for close to 5 years (likely longer

Levothyroxine stopped postpartum
Hi all, new here 👋December 2022 I was feeling pretty rubbish, really low mood, spaced out and just generally unwell. I went to my GP and my bloods came back borderline underactive. In February I found out I was pregnant, during routine bloods I had a phonecall from the hospital saying I needed to

Monitor my health laboratory results
Is someone able to explain why I feel unwell if my t3 is converting but t4 high. I did take the t4 two hours before as it was suggested I try this, but my t4 was also above range in March 24 following all the protocols on here for tests (both monitor my health tests). GP test in between these showed

Advice on recent blood tests
I've included the last three sets of blood tests, all done at the same lab, fasting in the morning. Question is whether an increase in T3 is warranted. My new Endo thinks I can go from 15mcg to 20mcg which will help with my fatigue. I have been on 15mcg for a few years and was doing well, but fatigue

Why all going wrong always with me 😭
Today is my 10dpt of 5dt. Did the urine pregnancy test and showed up negative😭. I used the strips that can measure hcg more than 25u/ml. Not sure whether hcg quantity was there to detect or I’m not pregnant. But this time I was confident the way my symptoms showed up and expected the implantation

Taking Omeprazole with Levo
I had a total thyroidectomy in 2016 after having a thyroid storm……I have been on various doses of Levo over the following years both up & down doses (at one point only 50mcg per day!)…. I am now taking 75mcg per day & mostly don’t feel too bad….although medical professionals are trying to lower dose

BFN confirmed advice please 🙁
I persevered in hope after my BFN last Sunday thinking it was too early and did another 3 days of tabs and pessaries to take me through to the full 14 days but did a blood test pregnancy test today and still shows BFN so that’s our third icsi round over for us. Not sure if the doc will be able to shed
