Weakness and fatigue after nearly 3 years of injections
Hi there, I started injections nearly 3 years ago. I have had varying frequencies, everything from eod to every 2 weeks. I had so much improvement in the first year or so, but since then it seems to have tapered off. Some symptoms that have improved include dark vision, depression, balance issues,

so confused with different doctors and their differing advice
hello, I have underactive thyroid with high thyroid antibodies So I’ve posted here a couple of times over the last year. I feel like I’m getting no where. To cut a long story short, was given T3 to take each day as well as my levo 75 per day. This was back in November. I did see some signs of improvement

Should I switch to NDT from levo?
Hi beautiful people, I've posted a number of posts here related to my heart pals and HBP with a healthy heart (I've been to see cardiologist). I'm even so grateful for all your support and this amazing forum. My nutrients (ferritin, iron panel, B12, folate, D) (also CRP, blood sugar) are at "ideal

First Appointment - venting
First appointment with an endocrinologist this afternoon and it felt like a slow motion car crash. They tried to be kind and sympathetic, I could tell they genuinely wanted to be reassuring… but I just started seeing red flags as soon as they told me “I spend most of my time taking people off levo

hi! So sorry if this is a long one… so I’ve been experiencing symptoms of b12 deficiency since 2016. It started with cuts in the corners of my mouth and then gradually more symptoms appeared such as sore tongue, breathlessness, brain fog, forgetfulness, irritability, body is a dead weight, fatigue, bladder

Clarification of blood results
Hi Could anyone give me some clarity on my anaemia test results received today. Test was done by Monitor My Health but no reference ranges included so all components just say "normal" which is very uninformative and irritating. I know from this forum results need to be optimal. Results: Haemoglobin 128g

Update on my post Confused
Well I did the endoscopy and colonoscopy last week. Am happy that they found nothing new just a suggestion for another in 10 years…Yea So the Gastroenterologist suggested Cholestyramine. I think it may be contradicted in kidney patients and people whom have had intestinal blockages. Wow… now to see

doc wants to lower my thyroxine
hi started HRT in oct and have put on a stone already. I felt it was possibly affecting my thyroxine levels and felt sure I needed more. She’s just called to say she wants me to reduce to 100 (from 125). Also iron is low and I’ve to take a pill for that. I occasionally get a little anxious (nothing

On iron supplements but my ferritin did not increase
I started having a lot of symptoms of iron deficiency last year after correcting my long term B12 deficiency: dry mouth, palpitations, muscle twitches. It is possible that my iron had been low for a long time and I just didn't notice because my B12 had also been low. I started taking iron supplements

Some very thought provoking research on the importance of iron - copper - magnesium in maintenance of health. Summarising a huge amount of documents / videos the implications are Restrict a list including iron ,vitamin D, vitamin C and zinc supplements amongst others to the absolute minimum and get

Anxiety after increasing medication
Hello beautiful people! I self increased thyroxine from 75 Mcg to 88 mcg (my GP thinks TSH of 4.9 is 'normal' and won't increase). I felt under medicated on 75 Mcg and I know TSH should be lower as well. Initially, for a few days, I felt really good with the increase from 75 to 88, split into 2 doses
