Is it common to get chest pains with thyroid problems?
I saw a post today from someone who was having chest pain with their thyroid problem and was wondering if my pain could indicate I have the same. I have been in A&E today for the second time in 10 days with ongoing short, sharp pain on the left hand side of my chest with palpitations. Last week they

Iodine as a potential endocrine disruptor-a role of oxidative stress
Am somewhat surprised by this substantial paper on iodine - deficiency and excess are both addressed. As well as protection from radioactive iodine. They claim: [i]Universal awareness that iodine is a potential EDC would make consumers more careful regarding their diet and what they supplement in tablets

Graves' Ophthalmopathy in the Setting of Primary Hypothyroidism
I have heard a specialist ophthalmic nurse insist to a patient that Graves' Ophthalmopathy only occurs in hyperthyroidism. Whilst a full review article including links to all known case reports might be desirable, even one case report demonstrates that it is possible. I think it is also good that the

Family planning treatment advice
I am planning on trying to get pregnant in the next year or so. I don't know if it's best to have Radioactive Iodine treatment before hand or stick with medication, taking in to consideration the risks associated with each treatment.

Hyperthyroid and TED - Is Thyroidectomy the only answer?
Hi All, I am in US and I was diagnosed with Graves back in Dec of 2017. I have been on Methimazole since then and my dose needs to be adjusted regularly as my thyroid levels keeps fluctuating. I went on quite a low dose as low as 2.5 mg from 30 mg back in 2021 and looked like I might get into remission

Long term Carbimazole
I was diagnosed with Graves in December 2020, this caused AF so medicated for both successfully. Eventually down to 5 mg of Carbimazole and no other meds. Feeling good and then Tom by Endo, I would need to come off Carbimazole to see if I was in remission. Bloods on 5mg TSH 1.34 Bloods after 8 weeks

Personalised Vitamin Plans (radio)
Just a quick alert to the devious vitamin sales people! I'm sure many here are all too well aware of schemes like these. However, the end result seems to suggest just taking a multivitamin. And we know that there is a strong (and evidenced) view that multivitamins are not ideal. Issues like combinations

Salivary gland pain
Has anyone experienced salivary gland problems after RAI? I had RAI two years ago and sometimes have pain under my ear when swallowing a bit like I had when I received RAI.

Radioactive iodine alternatives?
I am struggling with letting the Endo perform a radioactive iodine procedure to treat my Graves’ disease. The idea that my thyroid will be destroyed is unsettling. Has anyone had the procedure and has it helped. What is it like to have the procedure?

Endo adding T3
Hello everyone. I’m from the USA and love to read all of your posts here. I get so much valuable information here than I do in my own country. I had thyroid cancer 3 1/2 years ago and my thyroid was removed. I’ve had several RAI treatments. Normally my simulated TSH returns back to below 1. This time

carbimazole
A few years ago I was taking iodine drops (only 5 drops in water a day) after seeing a naturopath because I live in Tasmania and was told that we were all iodine deficient here) but over a period of 3 years it built up in my system and caused me to have a very high reading of an over active thyroid.
