Seeking any info: Our son was recently diagnosed with kidney disease
Hi, I'm a parent who is looking for possible answers or similar situations out there. Our 16-year-old son was diagnosed with kidney disease in March 2024. We've been trying to find medication and treatment to help with it. This all started in January 2024, when our son was complaining about back pain

Fecal Calprotectin & CRC
Hey all, I am waiting on a colonoscopy I have scheduled for June 27th due to some symptoms and have a question for you all. Did any of you that got a CRC diagnosis have a really low fecal calprotectin score? I have been worried (as we all are) about what will be found on this colonoscopy, but I had a

Free T3 not increasing with T4 increase
Hi, in May I had been prescribed 20mg of T3 (and not advised to start low) so after 2 weeks I was naturally feeling horrendous with such a high starting dose and my T4 was still very low (52% through range). Thus on advice from the amazing guys on this forum, I stopped the T3 altogether and have been

High levels of Prolactin
Hi all, do high levels of prolactin affect thyroid meds absorption by any chance? I did sex hormone tests and it’s through the roof 😨 I’m going to rest to see if it was an anomaly. But if its not, and the levels are still high, could anyone advise how to reduce?

Some good news at last
I’ve just had a zoom appointment with a private endocrinologist and he has prescribed me with T3, so I’m hoping that I will start to feel better than I have been. A question though to anyone here that is hypothyroid on T3 and has a pacemaker, did you suffer any side effects ie palpitations? If so did

Ferritin follow up
Per recommendations of Sue, Jools and others I contacted my Dr to request a Ferritin test. Haven’t heard back yet but I found labs that were done in 2019. My ferritin level was 34 at that time.

I often get this when I do FETs and was always previously told it was the meds. I’m taking crinone twice a day, lucrin injections alternate

told to take 10mcg and 5mcg Liothyronine on alternate days but it isn't recommended!
I was seen at the Endocrine Clinic recently. The endocrinologist had requested bloods were taken the previous day by my GP, but I had taken all my thyroid medication (75 Levo and 10mcg Liothyronine ) at about 8am before the GP took my bloods but I did not realise at the time I should have withheld

How do I go about consulting a private endocrinologist, UK
Hello. I am recently returned to UK after living abroad. Happily the NHS has been quite supportive in terms of ongoing treatment of Hashimotos and Adrenal Insufficiency. I have been referred to an NHS consultant who has supported supply of the medications I have been on for years (T3/T4 and Hydrocortisone

Urgent help with results please
I posted last week about feeling terrible on T3. Exhausted and aching all over. I’ve just had my second lot of results back. The top pic are the most recent ones and the one before that were the results when I’d started on a lower dose of T3. I’ve now dropped my levo from 175 to 150 and taking 10mcg

T3 friendly endo list
Hi, after 20 years on T4 only with below par physical health, and recently diving mental health , my eyes got opened to the thyroid madness, and now I want to try T3. Is there a list of T3 friendly endos in UK, preferably Kent? Is this maintained anywhere? thank you.
