iodine and thyroid
Beware supplements with iodine. I am a thyroid cancer survivor who had half of my thyroid removed and recently started taking a supplement that had seaweed in it. At my annual thyroid check up (just a few weeks after starting the supplement) my blood work and thyroid function had changed. My doctor

postpartum thyroiditis
Hi, I'm 8 months post partum and had my bloods done for hair thinning and some aches and pains, and my thyroid levels have come back abnormal. Although my t4 level is normal at 14 my tsh level is 10.6 which after Googling seems to be very high. I'm retesting as it's been a month to check if the levels

Irish sea moss?
Someone was telling me yesterday that they use Irish sea moss and swear by it. Googled it and read lots of positive comments about its health benefits. Does anyone here use it? Does it mess with levothyroxine/thyroid as it’s rich in iodine? Thank you 😊

Thoughts on extra Iodine intake in pregnancy (history of Graves)
Hi there, I am currently in remission for Graves disease and am 19 weeks pregnant. I heard that there is more need for iodine in pregnancy and am considering taking extra (in the form of liquid iodine - a few drops absorbed into the skin daily). However I am a bit apprehensive about whether this is

Fluctuating High Blood Pressure
I've had hypertension 140-150-160/90 for a while and I received treatment (Atacand 16mg)from a cardiologist, but I have the impression that the medicine interacts with my hormone level, as if it puts me in a hypo state. I take it in the morning 2 hours after the hormone dose(112 t4 and 6t3), as if my

Goitre and blood test
This is a bit of a long one - Thank you all in advance for your advice. So I have had a goitre for about 12 years - am not on medication and feel fine.. I have been aware it seems to have got bigger over the last few months and I do feel self-conscious about it. It does not affect breathing . I stayed

Sudden exhaustion. help?!?
Hello all... I was on levothyroxine (t4) AND Liothyronine (t3) but had constant heart reactions so chosen to return to levo only. This was in July 2022. I had been on 75mcg T4/5mcg T3 for some years. I had to lower and then raise slowly because of my overreaction to raises, it was all going well

Iodine urine test do's and dont's?
We have bought the Iodine urine test from Genova again, and having read the instructions we are a bit confused as the instructions on do's and dont's are a bit vague. My partner did two of these tests already and had strange results, the first test came back over 300 and the second 600, the range is

Can Sea Moss Gel affect your thyroid blood test
I recently had a thyroid blood test (nhs) and have been informed by my GP that the results show a slight abnormality and to re take the blood test in one month . The only change I have made is to add Sea Moss Gel to my morning drink , could this have affected my thyroid as Sea Moss Gel contains 92

Goitre & supplementing selenium & iodine
Does anyone supplement with selenium & iodine? I have a multi-modular goitre which is not really causing any problems. I do not take any thyroid medication. I have had a lot of blood tests done because I have a lot of unexplained symptoms like fatigue, insomnia, aches, brain fog, digestive issues etc

Why do I have heart palpitations with these thyroid results?
Hello beautiful people. I would love to get your input as to why I get heart palpitations, high pulse and HBP with my current thyroid and other results. Yes, my TSH is slightly raised, but it actually went down from 6.9 in Nov to 4.9 in Feb on Levo 75 mcg, so it should continue to go down. I've

CT scan iodine query
Hi. My cardiologist has booked me in for a CT cardio scan to rule out heart disease. This uses iodine based dye to show up the arteries.

Iodine and the thyroid
Could someone help with explaining this article I found on the British Thyroid Foundation site. I eat salmon. Is this to be avoided due to its iodine content? Or is it good for hypothyroidism? I have added this to my diet over the last 6 months. Can this affect the thyroid e.g going overactive or
