Is it common to get chest pains with thyroid problems?
I had radio
iodine
treatment 11 years ago, I'm on levothyroxine, 75 for 2 days, then every 3rd day take 100, and managed ok on it as far as I know. I asked GP to arrange TSH, T3 and T4 and he'll do that, but refused point blank to do ferritin or anything else!

worried about weight gain
Hi this is the 3rd time I've had graves disease in 9 years! I'm just wondering if my consultant will try to push me to have RAI this time as I was told I couldn't be on medication too long or often last time. Also I've worked really hard this year to lose lockdown weight & I'm worried about gaining

codeine
hi all, I have withdrawn from my DA . Had a range of unsuccessful and unpleasant treatments. After 6 months I have stabilised on approximately 18-35 mg Codeine 2-4 nights a week. My query is whether people have found codeine has any mental health effects as it seems to give me anxiety & moodiness. Wondering

Non stop pain at 13 weeks
Hi everyone, Did anyone else experience the pain of stretching at 13 weeks? Did anyone else have a Fibroid too? How long did it last? I had pain on and off on Thursday but Thursday night it was non stop and I couldn’t sleep or stand up straight. I went into A&E after my drs recommendation yesterday

Autoimmune, lack of iodine, or something else?
I wondered if it could be lack of
iodine
due to a previous vegan diet at time of diagnosis. I have since started eating dairy. Is hypothyroidism due to lack of
iodine
reversible or do people still need to take lifelong medication? Should I be asking the doctor to check something else?
