Toxic multi nodular thyroid
Thank you so much for all your replies. Very much appreciated. I have been getting copies of my blood results. Will try to get everything together and post on site. Didn’t know carbimazole could be stayed on long term if doing ok with it. Endo said I could only have it for 18 months because it was too

Further to previous post
It should have read in there that I’m back on carbimazole (hoping to come off it again soon). Also, forgot to mention that my understanding of the definition of a goitre is an enlarged thyroid, but my thyroid isn’t enlarged so I’m confused. Any thoughts? I’m questioning diagnosis, and therefore questioning

Toxic multi nodular goitre
Ultrasound showed no enlargement of thyroid, just heterogenous (bumpy?) appearance with (due to?) small nodules throughout. Negative thyroid antibodies with TPO of 20 (TG antibodies not checked). Different opinions as to cause ie 1. Nodules are producing thyroxin leading to hyperthyroidism and 2. Nodules

Endo appointment next week
Hi everyone, I posted back in July to ask for advice on my blood test results. I've since been seeing a private endo, and have more blood test results. I'm seeing him again next Wednesday and want to get some advice on what to push for when I see him. A bit of background, I had RAI in September 2018

I’m on high dose folic acid, T-convert and fertility multivitamins (minus
iodine
) plus all sorts of others including vitamin D. Im on 150/175 levo on alternating days. I have an embryo transfer on Wednesday for my 6th round of ivf and I’m so worried my T3 will be causing problems.

Thanks to Everyone for your part here, your God sent.

I’m in the United States and some of the other forums here in the State is not as knowledgeable as this Group. Just to let you all know that hopefully I am in remission even tho

Ongoing lower pain- any advice as desperate for help
Hi. I wonder if anyone knows what the severe pain I get over my groin area is? Its also outside my vagina and the pain is like a dagger being twisted constantly. Only thing that eases it is strong codeine together with hot water bottle and laying down. It is very tiring. Have had bowel and gyni specialists

Iodine Content of Thyroid Hormones
We have had many threads where the
iodine
content of thyroid hormones has been discussed. This has often not been understood. Sometimes it has looked as if
iodine
is an extra ingredient - not a fundamental part of the thyroid hormone molecules.

Dopamine agonist withdrawal
Hello to all, I am looking for advice, support and somewhere to whine. I wrote before as I have got off a daily dose of SR pramipexole .75 mg and 1 tab sinemet 100/25. I took 6 weeks to do it . My dr wanted me to do it more quickly but I did not, having struggled through the whole misery once before

Painkillers
So once again I have another appointment at the doctors due to being in constant pain. Codeine does not seem to work. Does anyone have any suggestions for any other pain killers that have worked for them? Thanks

High iodine induces DNA damage in autoimmune thyroiditis partially by inhibiting the DNA repair protein MTH1
The universal assumption is that because the thyroid absorbs
iodine
, people should take more
iodine
. There are bound to be circumstances in which some extra
iodine
might be helpful.

Vaping CBD and IVF
I don't know if anyone will be able to give a definitive answer to this as I know there is little research into the effects of vaping and even less into CBD, but I'll give it a go. I have a chronic pain condition which has recently flared up with constant severe pain in my shoulder. I've been prescribed
