carbimazole and iron supplements
hi all, I have very low ferritin and need to supplement iron. Do I need to take my carbimazole away from iron or it doesn’t matter?

Small thyroid gland question......
What does it mean if your Free Thyroxine is low (10.8 pmol/L - 12 - 22 R ) and your Thyroid is small ? My Dr is telling me he is unable to except my recent private blood tests which is annoying as I sent bloods of to MediChecks only this morning to check my Thyroid Antibodies which are normally

Have taken the plunge full Thyroid test!
Hi After reading many posts on here regarding Thyroid testing I have just received a full Thyroid Function test from Blue Horizon. My Thyroid has not been medicated correctly since I started taking 100mg Levothyroxine 4 yrs ago. Everytime I have a test the parameters seem to change from one test to

Restless Legs - changing treatment.
Can anyone advise me? I have had RLS for more than 30 years, familial predisposition. Been on Pramipexole for about 10 years - started with 0.088 mg. Over the years with the need to increase the dose - now 0.7 mg. Sleeps only about 2 + 2 hours a night. Has severe restlessness in the legs, like a wasps

Grapefruit
Hello everyone Does anyone know if grapefruit juice interferes with T4/T3 uptake? I know if someone is on statins it has to be avoided I know to avoid Biotin before blood tests but is Nicotimamide ok? Finally has anyone successfully lowered their cholesterol without statins while on T4/T3, I really

Suboptimal Cortisol levels following Synacthen test
I’ve just turned 60 and used to be a sportsperson. I’ve been on predisolene for 5 1/2 years and unable to get below 5mg despite several slow attempts. My rheumy suggested a short synacthen test via Endo which was 8 months later. I barely function on 5mg with doing bare minimum, giving up my small flower

Tiromol T3 - Any good etc?
Would be people be so kind as to tell me how they got on with the T3 brand tiromol? I am just trying the odd 25mcg tablet here and there along with my Thybon Henning. Tiromol is a little easier on the wallet which is one of the reasons I have decided to try it. Many thanks.

Iron Infusion
Sue perhaps you can help me, I have been successfully relying on diet for years but RLS seems to be catching up. I am in Australia. Perhaps its simply a matter of getting older (currently 79) but a couple of other things might be a problem. I tore a hamstring muscle or tendon that apparently caused

I cannot trust my GP
I have had a GP for 8 yrs who used to categorize everything as depression or anxiety or uncurable or everyone gets it. I used to have gut issue and my GP would just tell me that is normal thing. And I should change my diet I had given up on NHS. I had stopped visiting my GP altogether. However

Ferritin and B12D/PA
Some time ago (on this forum?) I read that 80% of PA people had peripheral neuropathy and 20% did not. I have dizziness, brain fog and tinnitus but not PN. I believe the above are related to the central nervous system rather than the peripheral nervous system.What I'm discovering in my case is that the

Could someone PM me T3 sites?
Hi. I come back here every two years when my supply runs low and my former go-to site has vanished (or at least is giving me a security warning) to ask again. I need a site that takes paypal/debit card. Cynomel is my holy grail but I don't know if anyone can access that now without a scrip. Tiromel

Missed T3 doses
Because I had real issues with finding my usual brands, being messed about by not only my GP but two pharmacies,unfortunately it led to me being without any T3 and I missed around 2.5 days of my full dose of T3 As I am feeling so unwell with more severe anxiety and fatigue, I put it solely down to

Enid has told me T3 will shorten my life
At my recent endo appointment, the Professor looked at me over the top of his spectacles and said, ‘if the blood test comes back right, I’m happy for you to stop taking the trial of T4 ‘(which I was coerced into taking) “and go onto 3 x day T3, 10mcg. You do realise it’s as clear as barn doors staring
