Immunologist tomorrow! What to ask?
Hi all, My daughter, who has had Hashimoto's since she was 7, has been very unwell the last school year with constant throat infections, one that tested as strep, but the rest just general unwellness, fatigue, and also stomach problems, of feeling like nothing agrees with her/indigestion. Her primary

Advice on raising NDT
Following on from my post on 26/02/24, my symptoms got worse (increased number of anxiety attacks and unable to cope with pain in head/neck and upper back) and the GP didn't have any ideas, so I saw a thyroid specialist recommended by thyroid UK in April. The doctor had my blood tests done and these

I had a medical crisis, I didn't die, I wonder why
Last summer I had a medical emergency. The odds were it would kill me but I survived with few life threatening consequences. The problems I had are commonly fatal for 80 year old men. There is a message in my experience which I hope to share with you in this article. It is a bit longer than most

Ferritin
Long time Hashimoto's here. Why do we need to check ferritin, and how is it different than checking iron? Thank you.

Twins, HCG did anyone get a faint line initially on first pregnancy test?
Just curious, we transferred 2 embryos ivf and I really want twins. Tested today but received a faint line - positive though.. I’ve been reading on here the lines are darker with twins. How true is this? I’ve only started to feel symptoms today since returning from Testing so I’m guessing hormones kicking

creatinine/Albumin
Recently I had an UTI and while I was at the doctor we did a Urine sample. My creatinine/albumin ratio was 62 - normal is 0-29. Could this be due to the UTI? I am anxious now. I am prediabetic, have white coat syndrome, and lipid issues though my "ratio" is good. Do I need to cut way down on my

Do I need increase in thyroxine dose?
I have struggled with hypothyroid symptoms all my life (always cold, always hungry, always tired, weight gain etc.) but was always told by my GP that all I needed to do was diet and exercise. Nobody listened to me when I told them that I was already doing that - I suppose it's easier to assume overeating

Urine dipstick test showing bilirubin and luckosites past trace🤔
As many of you members will know I've not been taking the T4 teva the endocrinologist prescribed me on Dec 27th I did try it again, but again developed the awful side effects (she herself wrote in a report this lady is intolerant to both T4, T3 teva and other thyroid medication she as been on)I discontinued

Followed advice here, now need help with understanding results
Hi, I’ve learned more here in the last year or so than I’ve ever learned from doctors. I’ve also come to know that I’ve probably been on too low of a Synthroid dosage for far too long. I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s since 2005 or 2006. I had a goiter on my parathyroid and had surgery to remove

Blood test units different
For years my thyroid blood test results have used the same units so, Free T4 pmol/L range 12 - 22 Free T3 pmol/L range 3.1 - 6.8 I have just received results with different units, so they won't fit into my spreadsheet. Free T4 ng/dL range 0.93 - 1.71 Free
