Very low TSH. Dr wants to reduce thyroxine.
I feel like crying and don’t know what to do. My Dr asked me to do a routine blood test to repeat my prescription. The results were; TSH 0.14 FT4 20 Vitamin D 57. N nmol/L less than 75nmol/L is insufficient I have been taking 3000iu of vit D a day for the last 3 months yet my vit D is still insufficient

Hypothyrosis and Hashimoto
I have hypothyrosis since 2009. When i was diagnosed and then from time to time I asked to do T3 also. However, as I have no big flucktations I do now only fT4 and TSH sensitive. For the antibodies that are increased (Hashimoto) it is important to take SE and have a gluten free diet. The therapy and

14 year old son constipation
My son is 14 and is autistic. He is constantly pooing small amounts at a time. He is on Cosmocol as he has constipation. He leaks as well in his pants. He was disimpacted on the advice of bowel nurse. He had 4 sachets and it made him sick and he was unwell in it. Although it did seem to do the job.

Is Gluten Sensitivity causing your Fibro?
Hi, I wondered if anyone has ever suspected NCGS (Non-Coeliac Gluten Sensitivity) as the cause, or as A cause, of their Fibro. Mine has flared up recently, after I've been on a much healthier diet than I have in years, and I'm baffled by this. Why would I get sorer and tireder while IMPROVING my diet

Low ferritin low hemoglobin celiac three years ?
I have posted before but at my wits end. I was diagnosed celiac three years ago due to very low ferritin and hemoglobin. I began gluten free diet and iron supplements and my levels were back to normal. Dr took me off iron and I continued gluten free. Past labs have shown a steady decline in my hemoglobin

Back again for help with recent blood results. Am i still a poor converter?
I am still a little confused with my most recent results , a recap: My GP instructed me to reduce my Levo from 100mcg to 75mcg, back in March when he saw that my TSH was 0.13 (0.27-4.2) I didn't want to , but was too lethargic to disagree with him. And he is only concerned about TSH, not how

Celiac and Low iron levels
I was diagnosed with celiacs disease three years ago. I also take meds for GERD, hypothyroid, pre diabetes, cholesterol, and anxiety. For the first two years after adhering to a gluten free diet and also supplementing with iron pills, my levels were pretty stable at 14. My doctor noticed that they started

6 month gluten free trial
Hello! I just was wondering how other people managed a gluten free diet when others in the house eat gluten? I (finally!) went gluten free about 3 weeks ago but I'm really struggling with cross contamination so I don't think I've actually been properly gluten-free at all. 🤔 I was just looking for

Choice...
hi all, can I get your take on people 6 who choose a gluten free diet... Personally I can't see the attraction.. i wish I didn't have to have a gluten free diet. I'm guessing that they just cut out bread and pasta etc... but it's so much more.. there's so much food that I can't have... things you wouldn't

Coeliac Disease
Hi, I have been following a gluten free diet for many months one. I recently had an endoscopy to show if I have coeliacs disease. It came back as positive. The gastro enterologist said that the only way he could determine if I was a coeliac was if I was still eating it. The endoscopy shows I have

Blood Tests: in range, despite classic hypothyroid symptoms
Hello, I’ve become an avid reader of this forum, these last months - and this is my first post. May I ask for your sage advice, please, on my blood test results, as below. My symptoms have developed slowly - practically unnoticed - for years, perhaps triggered by the birth of my second child in 2015

TSH is rising
Hello-increased my dose of levo to 125mg during lockdown after Endo said TSH fine at 0.72. but symptoms had worsened. Didn’t accept that I am a poor convertor. Just had TSH repeated by new Endo (refused to repeat T3 and T4 blood test) and despite the increase in levo my TSH has increased to just over

Should Coeliac UK be shut down?
This is a contentious question, but it needs asking. From a lot of posts on here, and personal experience, it seems that Coeliac UK are not very upfront about the fact that 'gluten free' foods carrying their mark of approval or listed on their food list are actually making/keeping people with coeliac

Please help - hypo/hashimoto's symptoms and potentially worrying blood tests, but GP not interested
Hello everyone, I have had long term symptoms suggestive of hypothyroidism and/or Hashimoto's, I think, and there is also a family history of it on my mother's side. I also had some tests 4 years ago which flagged an 'enlarged thyroid gland' but no action was suggested. Unfortunately the GP kept dismissing
