Anyone had a symptom dip after upping levo or changing tablet size?
After my elated post which I was finally upped to 75mg and all the pain I had vanished and energy & brain fog improved, I have taken a dip. Just wondering if anyone had experienced this? Upped 75mcg from 50mcg end of March and had been feeling brilliant until 25th May. What's interesting is this

Giving levo another go...
Hi thyroid community, I have been diagnosed with 'sub clinical' hypothyroidism (due to autoimmune condition) in the last few years and my life has been shit ever since as I'm sure many can relate. I didn't get on very well with levothyroxine during my first trial, but I decided to persist giving it

Very high cholesterol is it linked to an under active Thyroid?
I have asked for a blood test and it's come out at 9,5. I have been getting palpitations lately they hay checked my Thyroid and my levels are fine. I am just concerned because I can't understand why it is so high. I know I'm over weight but I don't have a high fat diet and I walk between 3 and 4 miles

urgent help with T3 problem
I started taking T3 13 weeks ago from a private endo. I increased it gradually and am currently on 10mcg twice per day and lowered my levo from 175mg to 150mg. My problem is I actually feel worse than I did before! My last blood test showed that my T3 levels had gone up but could be better but I feel

Heart Attack- 1 year review of medication
Good Morning, It will be coming up to a year soon of having my HA & Stent fitting. I will get a review of all medication I currently take, I would like not to be on any! But I feel anxiety of coming off them and having another HA. I guess this is normal. I’m just looking for any advice or your experience

Pain under right rib following increased levothyroxine dose
I started levothyroxine 3 months ago at 50mg following a slightly high TSH count resulting in an ultrasound which found a benign thyroid nodule. My TSH was good for the first following up, but raised above the threshold in my last blood test. My last test also showed high cholesterol. So, I had my levo

B12 deficiency and night sweats query
Hi - I don't have a diagnosis but I hope you don't mind if I pick your expert brains 🙏 I (Female, 45) have fairly regular blood tests due to medication I take for inflammatory arthritis. My MCV has been a little bit high for years (up to 102). Early on doctors would question it and because of a family

High haemoglobin mystery - any connection with my T3?
I am about to have an operation which incidentally I am dreading. I have a Giant intermuscular lipoma growing inside a muscle in my right arm above my elbow and very close to the radial nerve. I have been told that there is a 10% chance that they may hit the radial nerve when trying to cut it out which

nash fibrosure test
I recently had this test and scored zeros on everything, No steatosis, nash, or fibrosis. I felt pretty good about it at the time. From what I hear this is a pretty good blood test. I've also researched it quite a bit. I'm having some strange symptoms going on and I'm trying to reassure myself. Should

Could this be PMR?
Hi there. I have been lurking in the background for a while. I have OA and in fact had both hips replaced-2014 and 2021 to great effect!! However for the past 2 years or so I have had various rounds of physio to try and resolve a stiff neck and sciatic pain. No real relief and Ibruprofen doesn’t help
