Goitre, normal TSH, ENT
I recently discovered a lump on my thyroid which I now know to be a goitre and on checking online discovered I have most of the common symptoms of hypothyroidism and a lot of less common ones too. GP did a TSH test but result came back 0.87 which I believe to be well within normal range but I know

HRT and Thyroid function (non-medicated)
Afternoon everyone. So after months of getting nowhere fast, my GP results confirmed that my estrogen levels are very low after my repeat test after 6 weeks. Delighted to finally get somewhere! They have prescribed evorel 50 patches to start. As i expected, they won't do anything about thyroid as the

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

51 yr old woman with lots of symptoms needing help understanding results!
Hello! There is a history of thyroid disorders in my family (sister, mum, grandmother). I have increasingly more health issues that may or may not be also linked to peri-menopause although I have been on HRT for a while. I have high cholesterol, hearing loss (non age-related, unexplained), muscle pains

It it normal for levels to change so much in two weeks? (TTC after loss)
TW: miscarriage Unfortunately had a miscarriage on 1st July. Since then I had a thyroid test at the GP and carried out my own at home finger prick test because I wanted to check out my antibodies and vitamin levels before TTC again. 13 July: TSH 1.35 (0.35-5.5) T4: 17.5 (10.5-21) Attached latest

TPO is 74. T4 13.9. TsH 0.74. I'm suffering hypo symptoms. Why won't they offer treatment?
Hi people, I'm new to this forum but am a member of the brain injury forum. I'm curious why no treatment is offered till your body has destroyed your thyriod? I've had awful symptoms that both reflect hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism since my injury in 2018 but predominantly hypo, once to the point

Do Drs get a bonus for prescribing certain drugs ?
Does anybody know if Gps get a hand out for prescribing statins ? There has been a lot of controversy in regard to this topic. Late yesterday afternoon I had a call from my surgery. It was a Dr I had never heard of or had I spoken to her before. She was suggesting I were put on statins! I asked for

thyroid test results
I wrote on here before about my results and you really helped. I’ve been trying to raise my ft4 and lower my tsh. I had been on 25mg levothyroxine and increased in increments of 25. After the first increase to 50 my tsh went down and ft4 up, increased to 75, first test after that ft4 rose slightly but

Does having a goitre always mean you have a thyroid problem. Asking for someone else
Hi I don't and never have had a goitre so I can't use my experience to help. I'm working with someone who has developed a large goitre. She has pain in her neck, radiating to her ear, she has a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, gall bladder removed, type 2 diabetes amongst other things. She has been told her

Safety of testing 8-12 hrs after last T3
I'm trying to understand the rationale behind testing 24 hrs after last levo and 12 hrs after last T3. I realise it gives a higher TSH and lower T3. My endo asks me to test 4 hours after T3. He has never discussed splitting dose so assume he thinks it will be my full dose (in my case 10mcg). If we

Over 4 and half years ago I caught covid for the first time and ended up with high BP/ HR and put ( and left )on 5 hypertensives till this January when finally got a tilt table test and shown to have bad postural hypotension on standing for 8 mins ( accounting for faints), so obviously some BP drugs

Hashi's swings?

How can I help my son?
Much to my dismay it seems my son has inherited autoimmune (no antibodies test done yet, but I think it is) hypothyroidism from me. I had suspected he was expressing the symptoms for some time, (he was very slim, seemingly blessed with a fast metabolism and I was on the alert that it might really be

Back to life thanks to this forum! GP Next steps though - further levo increase?
You've been so helpful. Your collective knowledge has led to a diagnosis of (ords) hashimotos, my levo being upped to 75mg and I'm pain free for the first time in 5 YEARS! Thank you. I feel alive again. I armed myself with printed NICE guidelines and facts/ research and GP didn't resist this time and

Intro and T3 query
I was diagnosed hypothyroid about 20 years ago with a TSH >100 . I've never felt well. Crushing tiredness and brain fog. A gp this week suggested antidepressants and this has made me quite angry. I was on them for years. She said anxiety causes tiredness. Hmm. It's the other way round. Am getting

After 25 years on Thyroxine, blood results are now odd!
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 25 years ago and have been of thyroxine ever since. The TSH and T4 test were more or less in sync up to about a year ago. I am now getting high TSH (12.9miu/L) and my T4 is near the top of the limit at 19.4pmol/L. I was taking 150mg of thyroxine for many years

TSH & FT4 Levels
As a rule of thumb, should I aim to keep my TSH as low as possible and my FT4 as high as possible within the acceptable parameters ?
