medicheck results, what to do next?
I have posted my results before from Medichecks and I persuaded my youngest daughter to take the thyroid and vitamin test recently due to her symptoms of lethargy and the fact that not only I have hypothyroidism but also her Dad and older sister. Her iron plus Vit D were all low so she is now taking

ANA & Connective Tissue Disorder results Graves
Hoping for some help. I got called into the doctors on Monday to discuss my latest bloods & my continued weight loss, I had already discussed my thyroid bloods with the endocrine nurse so was not really sure what is was about. My GP said that I had tested positive for ANA & connective tissue disease

Blood results help
Hi I have had blood test tsh is one (range 0.4 to 5) and T4 is 14 ( range is 9 to 19). Also had an ultrasound which showed altered echotexture but no enlargement of thyroid. Are these results OK? Have symptoms of underactive thyroid but results all in range. Thanks

as the wife of the above, does anyone think that his thyroid hormones are low enough to benefit from thyroxine? I am able to obtain thyroid hormones privately if necessary. Thank you.

Monitoring Thyroid
I have a condition which is known as an MPN . I have a haematology appointment this week when my Consultant is going to discuss a new treatment. This treatment is known to interfere with thyroid function and anyone going on it will need their thyroid function monitored as it can cause thyroid issues

Vitamin and mineral deficiencies/Thyroid dysfunction.. Chicken or Egg?

I read a lot here about how these vitamins should be optimal for

Does Magnesium need a big gap around thyroid meds?
I currently try to leave 4 hours either side of both iron and magnesium capsules and thyroid meds. Do I need to do that with magnesium?

tamoxifen and thyroxine
if you started tamoxifen, how much did thyroid bloods/ dose need to change? I know tamoxifen causes fatigue and foggineess but also wondering if it’s thyroid too as I know it can interfere with things. I do have a blood tests in a couple of weeks.
