thyroid labs update for FET cycle
Hello, I know i've posted before but this is an update on labs now that i feel i'm doing much better, less lethargic and now on 100mcg levo per day. Labs were done in the morning and didn't take meds before.
My main concern was the T3 but the endo suggested that this was ok for my age and based

Endo appointment in Liverpool ❤️
Hi everyone 💗 Well I saw a lovely endocrinologist in Liverpool yesterday , they actually do exist 😂 She as agreed with the parathyroid surgeon I need the pet chlorine scan and is organising that, she also said if nothing shows up she will look in to a fine needle aspration👍. We did discuss the probability

Gooddaysagain
I keep reading of tests people have/had, e.g. for Vit B12, Vit D, etc., and specialists they have seen.After over 3 years of being unable to see a GP, I phoned last Friday afternoon in distress. I live alone and sometimes don't know how ill I am until a friend notices and tells me. GP is new, and young

Hi, Here are the Blue Horizon test results for my friend where I think she's showing hypothyroid because of the low T4. Do you agree? Is Total T4 also a bit low in range, do you think?Next step will probably be to get the gp to test again and check the low T4 wasn't a one off as there's no thyroid panel

Help - Osteoporosis and cancer
Hi all, I have today found out I have osteoporosis in consequence of taking meds for stage four breast cancer. I am very well versed in cancer as I have lived with it since 2020 but a total novice when it comes to bone matters. My oncologist was dismissive and suggested I speak to my GP. Due to an

ICU recovery nightmare
Was in ICU for 6 days following a seizure due to low sodium (92) due they think to stomach virus though still having investigations for Addisons. 2 ambulances, helicopter , CPR , a stroke originally suspected. No ICU diary kept by hospital , no discharge help, no rehab , no advice on how I would feel

Vit D tips please
I have been taking 20 mcg Vit D in 1 dose for some time now Latest D results are 92 (50-160) As it’s a water soluble vitamin, which clears out of the body quickly with water, is it better to split the 20 mcg dose into quarters and take 5 mcg 4 times a day? Thanks for your tips Persevere

Vitamin recommendations?
Hello all. Just doing some research as alongside an underactive thyroid, my vitamin levels are very low. Does anyone have any tips of particularly good vitamins to take, as I’m sure I will need stronger than a standard multivitamin! Have added my levels for reference. TSH 6.51 (R 0.27-4.2)

Is this hypothyroidism?
Hello, a friend just had some thyroid blood tests back from Blue Horizon and I wanted to check with you if you think they're hypothyroid. I'll ask permission from her to post the results in detail but for now I can give a basic overview. Background info, she's often tired and cold, and has mental health

Blood test results and feeling "off"
I did my quarterly thyroid test last week, having brought it forward a bit due to feeling "off" - feeling very tired and lethargic, no libido, muscle weakness...this is despite stable thyroid levels that most would say look very good. Also had a lot of back and neck pain, which has been treated by an

Annual Medication Review
I would be very grateful if any of you lovely people can give me some advice. I have received a text from my GP surgery to book my annual medication review appointment, I can stretch this out for about 5/6 weeks if I need to. I was started on 50 mcg of Levothyroxine in December 2022 and had it increased

B12 by injection 💉 - first steps . . . 👣
Hello All ! 😊 About to embark on the path of trialing B12 by injection as there seems plenty to confirm that those who do not benefit from supplementation, do ( - often enough!) see improvements via 💉s! Don't yet know if this will be available via the NHS, even citing credible info, of which there

Blood tests & upcoming endo appt advice
I had to cancel and rebook my endo blood test last minute as they messed me around with my endo appointment- so my latest blood test wasn't done pre 9am with 24hours from last dose. I had no choice but to go with the blood test offered at 11am unless I moved my endo appointment. I had taken my thyroxine

Has anyone experienced INR fluctuations while holidaying in the Mediterranean?
I am in Greece, different climate, different food, swimming etc. I will have my INR checked on Monday and wondering how much it will be different. Apart from food and drink, I read somewhere that vitamin D can influence INR. What has been your experiences?

Oh dear 😤
I’ve spent an annoying few weeks feeling dizzy, falling over, being sick and slurring my speech, feeling confused. No fuel in tank at all. BP spiking inexplicably. Still trying to get this sorted out at Primary Care Level as waiting list in secondary care in NW England is longer than my life expectancy

HbA1c has gone down!!!!
Saw the diabetes nurse yesterday, my HbA1c is 63, down from 88 (not sure when it was 88, but who cares!) I've been on Ozempic for about a year, but couldn't get any for several months due to the shortages. I'm back on it the last 3 months and have gradually increased to the 1mg dose (which it was I
