Results of MRI
So saw the endometriosis consultant today and he was very good. My MRI scan came back and showed extensive endometriosis that has obliterated my Pouch of Douglas and fully attached my rectum and bowel to my cervix. I've got an endo cyst on my left ovary and blood in left fallopian tube. Cervix is swollen

are hot flushes associated with hypothyroidism?
I’m in the process of being investigated for hypothyroidism, after a couple of private blood tests, most recent showing TSH of 5.06 mIU/l, free T3 of 3.9 pmol/l, free T4 14.3 pmol/l, TPO Ab 41.7 kIU/l My GP has been very supportive and has me booked for these tests to be repeated on the NHS to confirm

My Endocrinology appointment review no help! and my 1300 tpo just a small blip quote from endocrinologist (see my previous post)
My endo didn’t say anything to help I don’t have hypothyroidism and told her how unwell I am basically she doesn’t know what’s refused to help me and said she will repeat test in a few weeks . She didn’t care about the results of private bloods they mean notching and tpo doesn’t mean autoimmune thyroiditis

Hypothyroidism help
I had a thyroidectomy in 1984, to remove benign growths. The surgeon said about 25% thyroid remained, but he thought I would not need subsequent medication. I was not told to have regular thyroid function tests, and carried on with my busy life. After unrelated throat surgery in 1997, my consultant asked

how long for levels to adjust before blood test - Ndt user
hi I was wondering if I could get some advice. I use Ndt on top of thyroxine because it works better for me but gp won’t prescribe it and I’m no longer under my consultant. Taking the dose the consultant prescribed but because I can’t guarantee supply of Ndt now I’m sourcing myself I worry that if I

Tirednesd
I have Graves with mild TED, on :5mg Carbmizole and T4 and T4 back into normal range with TSH catching up slowly. I find tired especially in the afternoons. Is it low TSH, or Carbmizole ormy body recovering?

Thyroglobulin antibodies test
I tested for thyroid markers recently.I was already diagnosed last summer with hypothyroidism and am medicated with Levothyroxine, so the values of TSH T4 are now in the control range with T3 low borderline. However, anti Tg came positive at 570IU/ml which I understands suggests autoimmune underlying

Trying to understand what happened to my embryos.
Me again… sorry but I can’t think of much else. Calcium inophore was used ( my last round 2/3 fertilised but didn’t progress - there was a 4 cell and one 8 cell morula but other factors meant I wasn’t down for a fresh transfer) Round 2 - All 4 eggs were mature, one disintegrated on injection. .

Reference ranges
A quick question while you're having your cornflakes ( or fasting for a blood test 😊) if anyone knows the answer: Every day there are posts from people whose TFTs are within the reference range for the lab. And every day there are comments along the lines of 'your TSH / T3 / T4 should be higher [u]

Direct measurement of T3 likely vital say researchers
This may have already been shared but I just came across an article about a new study that has stated that "It is important to note that the more typically measured biomarkers for thyroid function (T4 and TSH) are poorly linked to free T3 levels," Lawton and colleagues wrote. The ratio of TSH:T4 explained

Latest results, I’m a bit confused
Fresh in today, and I’m amazed at the B12 result! My B12 has been steadily dropping, the last test in March last year showed total B12 at 271 range 145-569, this result is >150 for active B12, there isn’t a result for total but I’m not sure why it’s missing. Can anyone enlighten me? My CRP has shot up

Feeling dreadful but doc says results are fine!
Hi there, I was diagnosed with underactive thyroid back in July 2020. I was prescribed 25mg levothyroxine which was increased to 50mg after 6 months. Shortly after starting levothyroxine I started getting stiffness in my neck and shoulders along with pain in my hips and groin - the only way I can
