Wait time for food and drink after thyroxine
hi I have just been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and will start taking thyroxine tomorrow morning. I usually wake at 6.30 and will take then. NHS and endocrinology guidance says wait half an hour before having any food and drink, but I notice this forum advises an hour. I’m not worried about eating

Should I see an endocrinologist ?and if so can anyone recommend a good one I'm ased in South wales but willing to travel.
Hi allSo I've been publishing my results for many weeks now and have had fantastic advice from this page. Following on from my private blood test which I've attached, I booked to see a Gp but I tried a different one as I've been seeing the same one for 18 months. Well I feel absolutely deflated. I've

1 1/2yrs of treatment and I’m getting worse again.
Need advice. I’m concerned. I was diagnosed with PA (lack IF via blood test) a year and a half ago. I have been on daily Hydroxo injections since. I started at a high concentrated dose (I’m in US) of 5,000mcg day and dosed it down to 1,750mcg day. I maintained this dose for 6 plus months and still

Percent of range
Since your group likes to go by percent of range could you tell me an example of what makes a good balance on free t4, free t3 and tsh. Should they all fall around 50 percent of the range being used for your particular lab?

vitamins to help thyroid
Hello, has anyone got any tips of vitamin complexes to help under active thyroid? I have recently upped my vit d, my B12 and found a complex that says it helps the body convert t4 to t3. I’ve been taking them all about two weeks and I do think that I’m less exhausted than I was. I’m hopeful that it

Sussex hospitals no longer giving fT4 result on thyroid function tests
Hello, Writing this post in case it helps prepare others rather than for advice (but feel free to advise if you wish!). I had a blood test last Friday not because of hypothyroidism but the test included "thyroid function". My results came back with just TSH being reported, no fT4 as I have been used

out of date liothyronine T3
my T3 goes out of date 31st May and I still have a whole box left. I could do without another £99 cost 😭 do you reckon it would be ok for the next 2 months?

First PSA post surgery
Hello, Just had my first 3 month PSA test post surgery. <0.01. Good news but need to monitor every 3 years due to intraductal component. I just want to thank everyone that has been so supportive and has given me positive feedback on this forum. I am also getting genetic testing done this week as well

Latest blood tests
Hi everyone, I posted a while ago about getting all my underactive thyroid symptoms back, joint pains, fatigue, anxiety and others. I’d had test results saying my TSH was low, but the dr was saying that it was satisfactory. I managed to speak to another dr and she ordered full blood tests. My results

Sometimes the solution is simple !
Getting through the winter isn’t isn’t easy, is it friends ? This one was a long one and once the spring is on its way my energy levels, enthusiasm and motivation get going and life opens up again. It didn’t happen this year though. Asthma COPD for 21 years….was it all getting to the body ? No energy

Hashimotos or secondary hypothyroidism?
Hello, I recently had positive test results for thyroid antibodies, but my TSH and T4 remain in range, but low end. My doctor has suggested that I start treatment to prevent hypothyroidism developing. Actually I already have many key symptoms and I am struggling to cope. I also have a B12 deficiency

Confused about relatives diagnosis and treatment for colon cancer
Grandad is 87, diagnosed with colon cancer at the beginning of the year. Only symptom was rapidly decreasing iron in blood.They said he had stage T4 and that they were going to do an operation to remove the cancer. They did just that last week. Doctors said they had removed the cancer and he was released

This is not how I am 😕
I saw my rheumatologist yesterday. A couple of weeks earlier than scheduled because I've felt very depressed. I feel no joy, no focus, no energy/vibe. My blood and urine tests were OK, but my skin is the worst he's seen it. 😫 He even, with consent, took a photo of my hands to show them to his medical

Severe pain in shoulder and right heel to the point can’t walk some days. Ectopic heart beats that left me dizzy and faint. Constipation. And strange feeling
