Covid & dosing
Hi, I tested +ve for covid this morning. It's the first time I've had it. I've had 5 vacs. My temperature is high & I'm taking paracetamol for that.My question is, should I alter my T4/NDT dose? I haven't been ill at all since I started on thyroid meds in 2015. I wondered if I should increase, decrease

This sounds encouraging
At least this admits a lack of scientific knowledge on the subject. And it acknowledges the individuality of patients which would discourage a one-fits-all approach. Much work still has to be done. "Lastly, substitution therapy may be complicated by interindividual variations of deiodination. The question

T3 Questionnaire
Thyroid UK, along with the other thyroid groups, had a meeting with the British Thyroid Association yesterday to discuss the joint consensus on liothyronine. The meeting went well and we think, in one or two instances, our concerns were accepted. We have some next steps, one of which is to collate

Colonoscopy prep and low weight - anyone?
Hello folks, So I’m going to be having a colonoscopy at some point soon (still on waiting list) because of an enlarged liver, high calprotectin and IBD symptoms. I am extremely underweight at 43kg (I’m 5’4”) and extremely nervous about doing the prep for the procedure. My consultant muttered something

Confused and scared and looking for insights :-)
Hi all :) I'm a little confused about what's happening in my body and am in the middle of investigations. To cut my story as short as possible: - Last May and again in June I had a very subtle rash on my cheeks that lasted a day each time. It was accompanied with itching over my face, up the inside

Ruxolitinib & raised cholesterol
I have been on Ruxolitinib for nearly 9 years now managing my primary myelofibrosis. I have been advised today that I now have a very high cholesterol level of 9.4. We went through my family history and diet but it seems that Rux seems to be the main contributory factor. The sheet does say this is

thyroid and high blood pressure
Hi all So have been struggling to get a GP appointment to discuss my Thyroid meds. After MUCH sulking from me my medication was reduced to 75mcg from 100. Although I managed to hold out for 100 whilst I was on holiday- feel not so good so have been trying to get my meds reinstated. This since end

Irritability on levo dose increase?
Hello all, I'm about 4 weeks in to a dose increase of levo from 100 to 125mcg. I'm familiar with a surge in 'wired and frantic' energy when I've reached about the 3 week point on a new higher dose in the past. And I had that a few days ago. It had settled. However today I've been increasingly irritable
