Has my daughter inherited my thyroid problems?
Thanks to all those who kindly responded to my low TSH concerns. I have a further concern. My daughter's grandmothers both suffered from thyroid problems as do I. She is now 42 and is showing symptoms of hypothyroidism in that she is exhausted most evenings and goes to bed as early as possible and has

breathless increasing in AF what to do? I am Calli111
I was diagnosed with AF last August and although they started me on Amiodarone with a view to cardioversion I could not tolerate it. Nor could I tolerate beta blockers, ACE inhibitors or any of the other drugs they tried me on. These drugs make me feel even more breathless and to add to that feeling

Confused
My consultant phoned yesterday and said she didn't have all the results from my blood test on the 13th but my anti ana was fairly strongly positive. My inflammation levels were normal and I've previously had a positive rheumatoid factor. She mentioned a connective tissue disease.. What could I have?

Feeling Lost. Why is there no medical help?

New diagnosis B12 deficiency
I am new to this group despite following Thyroid UK comunity for a year or two now. I have been concerned over the last few years about the potential of thyroid issues due to nodules growing in both sides of my thyroid. Investigations last year found nodules were benign with normal TSH 0.9 (range 0.2

My P.A. Story
Although my P.A. journey started “officially” on 10th May 1972 events from 13 years before may well have been the true beginning. Around Christmas time in 1958 I started to get “indigestion” pains in my left chest area and these got progressively worse until the Tuesday morning of 28th April 1959 when
