Newly diagnosed
Hi all, diagnosed 4th May after episode of very rapid heart beats that wouldn't stop. Went to A & E where the diagnosis of AF was made. Stayed in for 5 days while they did CT scan of lungs and ultra sound of leg. Reason for that was that I had no symptom at all until a partial knee replacement 2nd March

HRT and autoimmune thyroiditis
Am about to be prescribed transdermal oestrogen and progesterone tablets. I am 56 y with much crabbines and fatigue. Have also just discovered that I may have Hashimotot's (see my post). How will HRT affect things? Do I not go ahead with it? Thanks.

SHBG test through Medichecks?
I'm set with an appointment with a menopause clinic in a couple of weeks for an HRT consult and noticed that their charges for some of the tests were quite a bit higher than Medichecks, and they are running a 20% off sale that ends tonight. I've had my thyroid tests done with them already, so I believe

Treatment after Zoladex/Prostrap
I’m due to go back to the consultant next week and I’m just wondering what your experiences were a) coming off Zoladex/prostrap and b) what treatment options are next. For context I have been on the injections for 11 months now, and HRT for the past 5 months. I know everyone’s experiences have been different

Tired of being tired?
just need encouragement to get out of this downward cycle. I used to be quite active to keep my MS at bay (lots of intensive yoga, exercise at home...). I stopped for hip surgery and have not been able to get back to the workout routine. It has decreased my ability to fight MS fatigue for sure. This

pacemaker and air pods
Does anyone have any experience with Apple Air Pods and their pacemaker. I’m going to have valve replacement surgery and my daughter thought they would be good for me. I was given Bluetooth ear phones before, to use with the TV but couldn’t use them, i kept getting static like noise through them, but

GnRH analogues
Hi all, I am due to be starting injectable GnRH analogues soon alongside a HRT, dose anyone have any advice/ guidance on them and their side effects and management? In the past I have had Nafarelin (Synarel). The plan is to have these before surgery as NHS wait is 50 weeks where I am. Thanks

Post Knee Replacement Advice
I had a full knee replacement on 28/4/23, so just over a week post op. Have to say most painful thing EVER! Really struggled to get on top of pain relief and have ended up in local a&e due to how ill I was feeling, changed meds for last couple of days but feel a little better at this stage. Struggled

Can people with hypothyroidism suffer with sweats and heat intolerance?
Before I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and put on medication, I suffered with dreadful sweating for years; eating hot food or drinks would being it on as would housework and sitting in a stuffy office environment. This would be the type that would soak on hair and clothing. For a long time I thought

Any advice welcome on latest blood tests
I've been tinkering around with Hydrocortisone and thyroid replacement for over a year now and been symptomatic for almost 4 years with low tsh and frees. I recently stopped all thyroid and HC and felt awful after around a month, so asked my GP for help (big mistake). They only do email consults and

back again - people saying I have thyroid issues - I don’t know what to do?
people keep saying my mood etc could be thyroid related and weight gain. here are my trackers of thyroid… I’ll post the rest below this. I don’t know what to do as I think my HRT is doing this. GPs won’t listen. I have no relationship with them at all. What are your thoughts?

Endo back after surgical menopause - anyone else?
It's a long story so I shall keep it short - I had TLH/BSO with excision at a BSGE centre in 2017, putting me in surgical meno. Things were generally OK for a while but about 18 months ago I started to get symptoms again (pain, cystitis, then the unpredictable guts started). Gave up on the wait for an

Levothyroxine - anxiety , chronic fatigue, HRT and eating disorder - does anyone else have these symptoms ?
hi thyroiders - I am yo-yoing from extreme anxiety to extreme fatigue . I am getting really low thoughts as I can’t sustain a relationship - I can barely look after my children and they live with me half the time. I feel so afraid as over the last 16 years this is getting worse and worse Just started

Am I going mad?
Hi! I've had so much helpful information from this forum and made copious notes over the last few weeks, I was determined I could get by without asking for help, but no. I'm so upset, after what I've decided is my last visit to the GP as I'm fed up of being fobbed off and coming out like a gibbering
