Many thanks in advance

Non-zero Anti-Tg after total thyroidectomy
Hello again, actually I posted a result about my TSH level increase hours ago but while looking in to results I realized that, although my Tg is <0.04 my anti tg is : AntiTg 13.3 IU/mL 0 - 115 I had total thyroidectomy 8 years ago and had RAI. My previous post: https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk

Teva levothyroxine solution, any positive results for anyone?
Hi Has anyone tried Teva levothyroxine solution, and had positive results compared to taking any levothyroxine tablets? To cut a very long story short, the 75 mcg Wockhardt tablets I take are causing terrible pressure all over body and excruiciating burning through top of my head. So bad I collapse.

I have been taking T3 since Oct 2019 because I felt so ill, tired, hair loss, dry skin, muscle and joint problems. With the help of much advice on here I started taking supplements

Hashis and Graves? Watch and Wait has now caught up.
About 15 months or so, I had an appointment for a thyroid specialist as my thyroid tests pointed towards Graves. I had been hypothyroid for about 17years when my different results meant my gp prescribing less and less levo. When the amount became 12.5mcg, (after an original 150 mcg) I asked to be

Can thyroid function recover after RAI
I received RAI in 2010 for alleged nodules but then consultant thought I may have had Graves disease instead. Over the last 13 years, I have had my levothyroxine reduced from 150 to 100 and I fear it will be reduced again. I am 55 years old. My question is why does the doseage need reducing? Is it

The uptake results are in... and more confusion
I've received my uptake scan results today, which I was expecting to show a toxic nodule or few. Instead the report states..... There is uptake seen throughout the thyroid gland with relative increased tracer activity on the right when compared to the left, however, no focal nodule is seen. Thyroid

Serum iodine test, UK
The consultant said that test doesnt reflect cellular,
iodine
level (adaptive response/excreting minerals) so suggested a serum test is better.

How to increase Cellular Uptake of Thyroid Hormones?
I have been also experimenting with

Some advice in choosing the best blood tests to go for, please, as am becoming a bit bogged-down with choices!
[/i] [i]Carbimazole works on how the body uses
iodine
to produce new hormone. So the affect is temporary. It’s doesn’t have a remaining affect on the thyroid.[/i] [i]Was your Graves confirmed? Did you have other treatment?

Vitamin and mineral supplements? My latest results
Hi all, I've just had my latest Blue Horizon results (see image) which I would welcome comments on, particularly regarding the vitamins and minerals I might need to supplement. All blood tests were done no later than 9.30am, no levo for 24 hours before. I've worked really hard this year on my diet, but
