Asking for support following GP 'Results Normal' response
Hello everyone, Right now I'm in sore need of massive hugs as I've just burst into tears. Yesterday I sent in a two page letter to the GP putting in all my recent results (posted elsewhere) and asking them to look at my folate, B12, Iron panel and consider increasing my levo to 100mcg. I detailed my

Can you combine levo and NDT?
Hello All, I wonder if any of you are successfully combining levo and NDT together and if you can even do it? I am currently taking levo only, alternating 88-88-75, but my T3 could be a bit higher. It was at 4.1 and I would like to see it around 5. I have a lot of hair loss, some fatigue and also

PERIODIC LIMB MOVEMENT DISORDER
I have not shared for a while. I would like to report that I have been taking the iron supplement every other day with orange juice. Also am taking 300 Gabapentin. I did a sleep study last year and it showed that the PLMD is not disturbing my sleep as it is now at a moderate amount. The sleep study

Happy 4th of July fellow US Americans, and Good Day to my friends elsewhere in the world! I have questions for all:
Refresher: I have b12D Pernicious Anemia with autoimmune metaplasia atrophic gastritis. Recently diagnosed with deficiencies in zinc and copper as well and am taking supplements until in the normal range. B12 sublinguals have worked for me for a 3 years, but I have been taking much more just recently

Need help, please! TSH 0.01 to 8.25 to 1.12 to 16.9 to 0.07 All from 25mcg changes - down to Hashis or something else? T4 in range.
Hello! Sorry - had to delete and repost... I posted here in Feb 22 about a big TSH change I experienced - at my annual thyroid level check, my TSH result rose from 0.01 to 8.25 whilst I was on my usual dose of 100mcg Levothyroxine. My GP raised Levo to 125 mcg and for months it seemed okay, TSH went

Muscle problems
I tweaked a muscle some weeks back and it seems to be taking ages to repair. So, as wondered if either PMR or pred could be slowing the healing, I looked on line and came across an article that I found really sensible - follows so much of the guidance offered on this forum. https://bpac.org.nz/bpj/2013

Conversion issues or adrenals.
I just received my blood results and I would like opinions of others. Since 1,5 year I am on 75mcg levo and about 3mcg of Cytomel. When i first added Cytomel I felt great, but since a few months I am in a stressful situation at home and I started gaining a lot of weight, eventhough i eat very healthy

Tirosint
I am unable to take tablet form levothyroxine, I have a gene issue with metabolising some medications. I have started liquid thyroxine but I think the ingredients are affecting my stomach and I have been told to stop taking this to see if it is the cause. I see that Tirosint is quite pure but not sure

Blood Test Results
Would someone please be able to tell me what these blood test results mean please? I did add them on to a previous thread but I don't think they were showing up. I was told by my GP back in July that my TSH levels were low . I admitted that I did sometimes forget to take Levo so she wanted me to go

iron results
I’d appreciate some feedback on my iron panel results please? I know my ferritin is too low, even if it’s above the bottom of the range. I upped how much black pudding, pate, or liver I’m eating at 5 out of 7 days a week for over a couple of months. Is my iron too decent enough to be able to take

Recovery from AV Fistula Surgery
Day 3 of Recovery from the AV Fistula Surgery You don’t know what you have until it is gone. Only having one arm is a real challenge. The next day, the block that was put in was still there, but much less. I had tingles in my hand and I could bend it and pickup things, if they were light. It is amazing
