Please could somebody help with reviewing my latest test results.
Please can somebody help to interpret my results please.I have been going through a really bad patch since an endocrinologist took me off my Armour medication in November as she disputed whether i needed to be on any medication at all. I was on 3 grains at that stage and she cut it down to 1 and then

Is thyroid my main issue?
UpdateJust started on Thyroxine 25mcg. I feel worse. I notice I am not able to tolerate stress especially emotional. I don't like being around stressy people either. I know adrenal fatigue is not an NHS diagnosis but perhaps it is my main problem after a year in a job with management I can't see eye

Disrupted sleep with increased T4
Hello dear Thyroid UK, I had thyroid cancer in August 2021 with part of my thyroid and a parathyroid removed. Since then, I've been trying to get an ideal dose of Levothyroxine T4. I did take a very low dose of T3 (Cytomel) briefly. I felt great alert-wise but experienced headaches, nausea and anxiety

Tainted Blood Sample - Additional Info
Did not anticipate another blood sample error yesterday using hematology clinic lab with the personal touch specifically to avoid errors. Finding the positive, it is good to know that it is not only potassium that can be skewed greatly from a bad/coagulated sample but also protein and liver AST (aspartate

2 year old Toddler with RLS
Hi there! Came here out of desperation. My soon to be 2 year old has had terrible sleep since day 1. He is extremely hyperactive, and would be up in the middle of the night for hours. We tried every natural syrup or solution recommended by doctors. Finally saw a neurologist and he suggested RLS. We are

Can I ask for advice please
Hi all, I've been reading many posts since my Rheumatoid Arthritis diagnoses in 2020 and have found invaluable information on many topics and been very impressed by the supportive outlook everyone has. So thought I'd ask for some advice as I'm seeing my GP tomorrow, I was told I have subclinical hypothyroidism

Does Anyone Feel?
I am wondering if its possible to feel as well on thyroid replacement as I did pre hypothyroid. Just for background looking back 4 years ago I felt really fit and healthy,had plenty of energy, was going to the gym. Then the pandemic hit and my gym closed down and went bust. In June 2020 I finally started

Reassurance needed on starting T3
I am in the early stages of adding liothyronine to my levothyroxine regime of 20+ years. The Endo instructed me to change overnight from 75mcg levo to 25mcg plus 2x 5mcg liothyronine. Thanks to advice on this forum (SlowDragon) I learnt that I should proceed slowly and have so far dropped my levo to

Medichecks results - early signs of hypothyroidism?
Hi everyone, I've just received my advanced well woman blood results from medichecks and everything was fine apart from elevated TSH. TSH - 4.78 Free T3 - 5.08 Free Thyroxine (T4) - 15.4 The doctor's notes suggested that this can be an early sign that I am developing an underactive thyroid

I was just trawling over my last very full blood results to see what I could learn. Again! All this towards taking T3 which appears to be my very necessary direction. Really there were no surprises. Vit D low, minor so far knock on effect to bone tests etc etc. However, for thoroughness and making

Hashimotos
I have been diagnosed with Hashimotos quite recently, although I've been taking levothyroxine for over a year. I have been feeling exhausted, and have taken a lot of time off work this year as a result. These were my recent blood test results. My half sister also has Hashimotos, and she feels
