My Thyroid Story Part II
We argued, and I compromised: give me a test for
iodine
and if it’s low I’ll consider it. The result came back that my
iodine
was sky-high. And, I never heard from Dr RST again. He didn’t reply to my emails and didn’t return my calls.

Which Thytoid test is best?
I have hypothyroidism after having Radio
iodine
treatment for Graves several years ago. Levo (irrespective of quantities) hasn't worked for me. I was prescribed Armour two years ago and it was a miracle drug for me but then my health board refused to keep prescribing.

T3 every other day
Someone has tried to take t3 one day yes one day no or every 3rd day? I was on 100 mcg levo, reduced by 25 and add 5 mcg t3. I tried for 3 weeks to take 5 mcg t3 and 75 mcg t4 every day but have a lot of hyper simptoms. I had Graves in 2012 then RAI, then hypo with 100 mcg levo. I am a poor converter

Iodine and thyroid function
My good friend has an
iodine
deficiency along with an under active thyroid. She has been taking doses of
iodine
daily. The last week she has been increasingly fatigued, some “brain fog”, weight gain, even affected her eye sight. Is this something that is normal?

Leg pain - relief?
Hi ladies hope you’re all okay. Last night and this morning I’m having the worse nerve type electric shock pains in my thighs 😩 codeine / naproxen and wheat bags not helping I’m guessing because it’s nerve type pain. Any other suggestions for pain relief? Also anyone else experience this? Thank you

Help
Had restless legs for a while and took over the counter magnesium that seemed to help. But lately it's been getting worse. I take citalopram following the death of my son and see now this can make it worse. Last night I barely slept and my legs have been painful all day today. Additionally I have

How long can you take meds?
hello everybody. I’ve been taking 40 mg of carbimazol and 100mg of levotheroxin as my bock and replace therapy for Grave’s disease for about 4 years. My levels kind of stable and “in range”. But the endo is constantly bringing the question that I had to stop all meds. I don’t agree with that as I know

Codiene & RLS.
Hi hoochybaby I have been on most medications, most resent pregablin pramipexole & codeine which was increased to 60mgs . I am awaiting a telephone consultation with my nurologist. As I am now aware that the side effects of these meds are not good also I am sure I am augmenting. Codiene can help, but

GP reducing pain relief
Hi guys I’m at my wits end. I have stage 4 rectovaginal endo. I have had one surgery that confirmed this in 2016 and no further surgery. My last consultant follow up was a round 6 months ago. I am managing just about with analgesia and sheer powering through as I’m reluctant to have the surgery as much

Has anyone had kyphoplasty procedure to lumbar spine & how long did pain last?
My mom just had a kyphoplasty procedure last Tuesday to her lumbar spine as a precautionary procedure to strengthen her bone after having SBRT radiation. She has been taking codeine for the past few days but is still in a significant amount of pain, although the pain she experienced in her legs decreased

My Thyroid Story Part III
After a lot of tossing the subject around, and her asking questions about what else I might be poisoning my body with that I had bought on-line - “Are you taking
iodine
or DHEA?” she asked. “No,” I said, “but I’ve taken both in the past…” “Ah ha!” she said. “both prescribed by doctors!”

Gluten Free after RAI
Would anyone share their experience of going GF? What kind of improvements did you experience and how long did it take? I have Graves treated with RAI in 2008, I have seen GF recommended a lot, I wonder what benefits I could expect if my thyroid has been ablated anyway. Thanks!

Blood tests
So after 3 phone calls to my endocrinologists secretary for a copy of my bloods taken in November , I have finally managed to get them. Even though I asked for full bloods this is all that I have been sent, so beggars can’t be choosers I suppose. Could someone give me a bit of advice on how these are
