Hi, so glad I found this site
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed a week ago with under active thyroid after taking radiation
iodine
back in October for Graves’ disease, to say I’ve had a bad couple of months is an understatement but finding this forum is going to help me a lot I hope, I’ve been put on 75mg levothyroxine only 6 days in

I’ve been on this forum for a while but this is my first post and I’m hoping you can help me.

How do you cope with stomach/colon cramping?
I have started to get them more frequently, and they are excruciatingly painful to the extent that I have no choice but to lie down for the rest of the day and hope it somewhat passes by the following day (just for it to come back a couple of days later). Even sitting up can be very uncomfortable!

Does anyone else find?
In 2003 I was diagnosed with over active thyroid. I received RAI treatment which knocked it under. I went onto Levithyroxine which for years seemed to be okish. Then three years ago it stopped working . We tried anything and everything and have currently settled on Teva liquid Levithyroxine which though

3x Hyperthyroid relapses, what is next?
The consultant is suggesting this time we need to go for definitive treatment i.e Radioactive
Iodine
. I am a bit nervous about it because I am worried about how is my life will be with the Thyroxine.

Thyroid hormone synthesis
. - In the colloid, iodide (I−) is oxidized to
iodine
(I0) by an enzyme called thyroid peroxidase. -
Iodine
(I0) is very reactive and iodinates the thyroglobulin at tyrosyl residues in its protein chain (in total containing approximately 120 tyrosyl residues). - In conjugation, adjacent tyrosyl residues

Cough and methotrexate
I have a very tight chesty cough that is stopping me sleeping as I can't stop coughing when I lie down. I increased my methotrexate last week to 25 mg injections from tablets. Don't think this has anything to do with the cough but does anyone know what I can take to help or suppress it? Codeine suppresses

It hasn’t gone away but it’s sort
