Later today husband will be speaking to GP regarding latest TFTs which have been erratic this past 3 years. He’s not taking any thyroid replacement yet but I’m expecting - or should I say hoping - GP is going to prescribe something based on over range TSH, although I know they often wait for it to climb

Cerelle for Adenomyesis?
Hi, I’ve recently been diagnosed with adenomyeosis, I was misdiagnosed with a fibroid but they’re pretty sure it’s adenomyeosis now. My main symptom is unmanageable periods getting worse and worse, they are so heavy that I tend not to leave the house during this time but of course some days I have to

Sobriety and preparing withdrawal from Pramipexole
Hi RLSers, I have been struggling with RLS, first when I was around twenty years old and now as I am well into my middle age. I have been sober for 23 years, but a few years back I started taking Pramipexole. This drug has created more problems for me than it has solved. At the beginning it works

T3 or Hydrocortisone
I’ve historically had problems raising my levo dose, as soon as I get to 50, I start to feel dreadful. I’ve been experimenting with hydrocortisone at 2.5 and 5mg doses alongside the levo. I stopped the HC for a week to see if it made a difference and re-started again yesterday at 5mg. OH BOY! There’s

Comments On Blood Test Results Please
I don't post very often but I read a lot on here, and after having a Blue Horizon full thyroid blood test, I would be interested in the thoughts of anyone on what came out of it. I had radioactive iodine some years ago and am on levothyroxine (100mg). My results from the GP always come back as 'normal

Iron Deficiency Without Anemia (IDWA)
In my "I'm Alive!" post yesterday I discussed my crashing with effectively no iron in my system with a condition called Iron Deficiency Without Anemia (IDWA). As promised here is a more detail discussion of that condition that anyone with autoimmune PA/AIG should keep their eye on. Knowing that iron

Retested: low D & B12, high ferritin
I have retested with medicheck because I'm in the queue to see a private endocrinologist about my symptoms. I was hoping that treating my vitamins and minerals may give a different thyroid hormone picture. Iron 239ug/L (range 30-150) I am under haematology, treated for iron deficiency anaemia. Tested

Latest Blood Test Results
Good morning all. I have an endo appt this Thursday and am trying to prepare myself as I am worried my dosage of Levo might be reduced. I am concerned that T3 conversion needs improvement as I still don't feel 'good' but because my TSH is at the bottom of the range my endo may ignore my concern. I can't

off Pramipexole
It took me 6 months to come off Pramipexole very slowly! Breast cancer interrupted things and I paused my reduction programme whilst I had a mastectomy. After surgery I had some respite from my restless legs as my ferretin levels increased which is normal after surgery. They are dropping back now.

RLS and insomnia
so I’ve never found relief from RL despite meds, iron infusion and numerous other interventions including CBD . I take 1800 mg of Gabapentin daily( 800 early evening and 1600 at night) plus Dilaudid 2 mg at night and Trazadone 100 mg at night. I continue to be up at least twice as they over ride whatever

Low t4 postpartum
Hello, I am 5 months postpartum and struggling with fatigue, brain fog, cold, anxiety, weight gain. Obviously sleep deprivation will be having an impact but I also feel like something is missing physically. I am also breastfeeding.

sleeping pills
MyRLs are becoming a problem and I regularly lose sleep. My GP says my iron test came back normal and wants me to try Pregablin. I am reluctant . I want to explore other alternatives. Do any sleeping pills override the RL ? Magnesium has been suggested… but how much and which one? Any suggestions would
