Recommendations for a doctor/endocrinologist who has similar approach to Dr Barry Peatfield.
I was wondering if anyone could recommend a doctor who has a similar approach to Dr Peatfield in treating patients ie he/she is open to treating with both conventional medicines/hormone replacement but also treats in a functional way ie with adaptogens/supplements. Also will provide a customised protocol

Im normal except that i dont feel that way
I have all the symptoms of Hypothyroidism so my GP ran TSH and T4 tests which came back within normal ranges so I had a private test done to see if I had antibodies. This came back as positive TPO 0.50 and TG 3.7 . I went to GP today to be told although I have antibodies and all the symptoms of Hashimotos

HRT and RLS
Hello everyone, Just wanted some advice please. I have been able to reduce my dosage of Ropinirole to 1.5mg with the unexpected help of HRT. I would like to reduce further and although I need to up the HRT dose, which may help. I am considering trying Magnesium. Any advice would as always be gratefully

I was diagnosed with GCA in March 2016. After a rocky ride with a few flares I came off Prednisolone on 10 August this year. From 5mg onwards I reduced Prednisolone using the dead slow taper and only reduced by 0.25mg at a time. That took 3 years to reduce from 5mg to zero and I was feeling

"Honeymoon phase" in Hypothyroidism?
After a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes (an autoimmune condition), there is often a āhoneymoon phaseā where a small percentage of the pancreatic beta cells continue to produce insulin for a period lasting from a few weeks, several months, to as much as 1-2 years. This honeymoon period continues until the

Transplantable human thyroid organoids generated from embryonic stem cells to rescue hypothyroidism
This is another paper about the possibility of effectively re-growing thyroid glands. I've had a quick read (it has lots of complex detail so it very hard going). The issue not addressed, so far as I can see, is the applicability of this approach in those with the predominant thyroid disease

Endo and mega high levels of oestradiol...
My cognitive issues/brain fog/inability to learn new info/feeling confused and forgetful; they are getting worse and worse. I thought these would be menopausal but my blood tests today show that I am not menopausal at all. How can this be? My oestradiol levels are 1888 pmol/L and FSH is 6.8iu/L and LH

AF and knee surgery
Hello! I wonder if anyone can helpā¦ it looks like I need a knee replacement, and as I have AF I know the procedure would be done with a spinal block rather than general anaesthetic. However, I just wondered if anyone has experience of AF and knee surgery, and if so any advice/information would be much
