Thyroid hormone and cortisol!
According to Paul Robinson in his book recovering with T3, he states that thyroid hormone and cortisol need to be considered together. Then he states that thyroid replacement can worsen cortisol insufficiency. It's on page 316. Then he States higher cortisol/effects reduce TSH and T4 to T3 conversion

My ‘thyroid journey’ has been an interesting one and now approaching its 4th year. I’m fairly convinced I don’t have autoimmune thyroid disease and relatively confident my adrenals play a big part in my symptoms, however it’s not just adrenals as I’ve tested myself on HC solo and it doesn’t work. Aaanyway

Help with test results
I am feeling a bit better, not so spaced out, no depression or dizziness. I stopped HRT in July. However, I do still get tired, have weight problems, have a swollen scalloped tongue, high cholesterol, goitre, tinnitus, joint stiffness. I am on 100mg Levothyroxine. I take B complex, B1, selenium

Treatment of eating disorders by thyroid hormone
This downloadable paper discusses case studies describing treatment for eating disorders by thyroid hormone. It's interesting in that case studies are described in detail and might find resonance for some posters on this forum.

we can finally see the wood through the tree's... My ongoing Thyroid Problem.
I had my appointment with this new endo on the 4th July. She was a happy cheapie type of person and explained my problem to the liking of a damaged car. Which I found interesting. My Thyroid is like a broken car that despite all measures wants to go 70 miles an hour all the time. So what we've done

Stopped taking propanolol effect on thyroid hormones?
Hi, I have been taking propanolol 10mg X 3 times a day for my pots. I have now stopped taking it. Would it affect my thyroid hormones? Am taking both levothyroxine and liothyronine.

Graves disease and RAI
Hi I was diagnosed with Graves disease 16 months ago. I have been on carbimazole on reducing doses and T levels were almost normal but then went up. So I am now on 15mg per day. They asked me to think about radio active iodine. I am very unsure about this. From the little I have read it can make your

Why does the thyroid produce T3?
As we all know, the thyroid produces T4 and T3. Given that the body converts T4 to T3, why does the thyroid produce T3? I once asked Prof Weetman this - he admitted he didn't know.

I wonder if my thyroid was going wrong for decades before I became hyperthyroid?
I went hyperthyroid about 19 years ago. My explanation for it has been that it came soon after the birth of my beautiful son (amazing but stressful of course) and then the sudden death of my father a year or so later. I was just rambling on an ADHD forum (DX in 2022 now titrating) and the question occurred

Are thyroid problems hereditary?
I had a subtotal thyroidectomy in 1985 at the age of 35 to remove a multinodular goitre. The specialist thought that my previously functioningThyroid would work properly afterwards. Four months later I was totally exhausted to the point where even making a cup of tea required huge effort and I was unable

Graves disease symptoms?
Hi there, I'm newly diagnosed (by UK GP) with Graves disease, and am waiting to see an endocrinologist who is supposed to prescribe me carbimazole. I have a question about my symptoms, which are mild but seem more consistent with hypO than hypERthyroidism: My blood test results were: -Free T3: 13.8

Is there any evidence that antidepressants affect the role of the thyroid (production/conversion of thyroxine etc)? Any information gratefully appreciated.
