Long term -confused - Thyroid & pain in neck?
Hi, I'll try and be brief. It's been over 3yrs since I thought I had a thyroid problem. I was fobbed off with antidepressants and it took me years to get off them. I am still having problems and I know it is not just anxiety! I suffer with DPDR - dissociation. I feel spaced out often and disconnected

Zoladex and bleeding
So I was on Decapeptyl for a few months last year, a month without HRT and a couple with. I stopped using it because it was causing me headaches and was switched to Zoladex alongside HRT. For the first 4 injections it was fine, it stopped my periods and I was doing ok, although my moods have got slightly

Hi all, Feeling somewhat relived that my latest medichecks test shows my TSH has increased since Jan (same dose - 75mcg) from 0.9 - 3.38. T3 and T4 remained fairly constant (see attached) For the first time I also got TGA tested and they are high, my TPO antibodies have always been negative. So at least
