Help! FT3 below reference range despite increased dosage during pregnancy
Hi, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis in 2015 and has been taking Levothyroxine ever since. I started a gluten-free diet nearly 2 years ago. Before I found I was pregnant, my dosage was 75mcg/day. And the last blood test before pregnancy was: TSH 0.93 (0.35-5.5 mIU/L) FT4 15.4 (10-20 pmol

Recommended a gluten free diet
Hello fellow IVF warriors 💪 Hope you’re okay. I’m so pleased it’s the weekend! I went to try my first session of acupuncture last night and the therapist looked at other aspects of my life as she likes to treat patients holistically. She recommended I go gluten free as there is some evidence gluten

Gluten and Urticaria (Hives)
Hi I am hypothyroid, not sure if I have hashimotos' the autoimmune type but my antibodies are top of the range. About 18 months ago I saw an Immunologist because I started to suffer with cold urticaria (hives when out in the cold weather) he did lots of blood tests but nothing really showed up. He prescribed

Update on gp visit with my medichecks results. Referred to endocrinology. Help to Interpret coeliac results...
So I thought I'd give a little update. I had my gp appointment. I waited 4 weeks to see a particular gp as i had seen her before and she seemed quite nice and thorough. I wasn't disappointed in the end. She was a bit off with me at first swanning in with my medichecks results but she did listen to me

Test results advice
Hi, could anyone advise on these test results? I have family history of hypothyroid on one side, and autoimmune diseases on the other side. Ive been feeling progressively more awful over the last year or so, but for ages the GP and I put it down to depression and I accepted a higher dose of citalopram

Gluten free diet and Hashimoto's - any advantage? Appears to be so.
This recent paper indicates gluten-free diet can be a useful aid for women with Hashimoto's:

DOI: 10.1055/a-0653-710

Undiagnosed Endometriosis from lap and Orilissa. Do I have endo?
Hi all, I recently had a laparoscopy with my OBGYN that left me without answers. He said that I had blisters/possible endometriosis on my ovary, but it didn't explain my pain. Since then I've had my case looked over by a specialist who said that I probably have stage one endometriosis. He also wanted

Gluten free
My next step, in this journey, is to try a gluten free diet. I’ve done some reading and am a little overwhelmed. It seems like everything contains gluten. Any suggestions on where to start? Thanks!

Newly GF, itching and hot flashes
I was newly diagnosed with a wheat allergy. I decided it would be easiest to follow a gluten free diet. I’ve doing great eating vegetables, fruits, proteins. Nothing out of the ordinary for me. Just no wheat. Well, this is the 4th day GF and I’m getting major hot flashes, tingly all over my body and

Home made gluten free shortbread biscuits with ground almonds 🌞
Hi everyone, These are one of my favourite biscuits made with ground almonds and plain GF flour which includes buckwheat flour. I used organic butter free range eggs and unrefined sugar with ground almonds to top so they are still much healthier than many shop bought biscuits and a treat for those

Coeliac blood test, when to eat gluten?
I've been on a gluten free diet now for 6 years since I was in my mid 20s as even the slightest amount of cross contamination from crumbs etc. started to set me off with severe bowel issues and I lost 2 stone. It still has the same effect now so I avoid it completely. My old GP put it down to IBS and

Unresolved thyroid condition
I posted a couple of months ago results from medichecks and historical NHS tests. Since then I have had several visits to the GP who refused to acknowledge medicheck tests (which included T3 and vitamin analysis). I had further NHS tests done which contradicted private tests and which I simply do not

Has anyone found that they have lost their appetite, and lost weight, after an Ataxia diagnosis? Has anyone tried a gluten free diet? I live in North London/Enfield, am 70, and wonder if their is anyone locally who has been diagnosed with Ataxia? My diagnosis, some 2 years ago, is idiopathic late onset
