I have a overactive toxic nodule on thyroid, due to having small children I have now been offered surgery rather than RAI. I have asked my consultant about Radiofrequency ablation instead and whether

CRPC & 'Drug Repositioning'
New study [1]. "The drug candidates of sorafenib, olaparib, elesclomol, tanespimycin, and ponatinib were predicted to be active for the treatment of CRPC. Meanwhile, CRPC-related genes, in this case MYL9, E2F2, APOE, and ZFP36, were identified as having gene expression data that can be reversed by these

now that I am thinking about my previous thyroid problems I seem to remember them telling me I had a nodule on my thyroid. I will need to ask to see my GP notes to check as it was a long time ago. I also seem to remember them telling me it was okay but I am not too sure what this might mean? is this

Thyroid Cancer twice..!
Had hashi then thyroid cancer 10 years ago. 3 years it came back after having RAI and lateral neck dissection! My TSH levels are suppressed 0.02 which is good however my T4 has been abnormally high for over a year. My consultant reduced my Levi from 175 to 150 6 months ago but its still really high.

Advice needed re nortriptyline please as preventative
Please can anyone help/advise me. I’ve had migraines since age 11 but over the last few years they’ve increased to two or four a week. I’m 64. I take rizatriptan and cocodomol(45mg) I’ve recently seen a migraine specialist who suggested nortriptyline as a preventative. I’m now taking 50mg at night

Peripheral Neuropathy and Sunshine
Hello, I suffer from severe small fibre neuropathy, worst in my legs and feet. I take pregabalin and sometimes codeine which calms it at night. Find summertime difficult as even a small amount of sun on my legs and feet causes a massive flare up of pain. Even happens through jeans or skirts. I can't

The Opioid Crisis - quite concerting!
As I’ve been reading through posts, I’m concerned that many of us fibro warriors are just prescribed highly addictive, liver&kidney damaging drugs, without being told more about the long term effects of heroin. Opioids are synthetic heroin. Morphine is heroin. Codeine is an opioid. Fentanyl is 50x stronger

Codeine
Does anyone else react to codeine? I was advised a few years ago to avoid codeine in case it affected my breathing (by a decent GP and by a consultant). So I have. But other drs have looked at me like I'm insane (I probably am but that's unrelated!) and said there's no risk that they know of. Googling

Dr Abbi Lulsegged for Graves' disease?
Hi. I hope I am not contravening forum rules in asking this, and I am not expecting replies on the open forum. If anyone is able to help and can PM me I'd really appreciate it. I have Graves' disease and I am looking for a consultant who will not insist on either RAI or complete thyroidectomy which is

Iodine Content of Thyroid Hormones
Another document to try to help in understanding thyroid hormones. We have had many threads where the iodine content of thyroid hormones has been discussed. This has often not been understood. Sometimes it has looked as if iodine is an extra ingredient - not a fundamental part of the thyroid hormone

High iodine induces DNA damage in autoimmune thyroiditis partially by inhibiting the DNA repair protein MTH1
We see an awful lot of people "advised" (by anyone they talk to and most especially anyone who speaks beyond their understanding) to take iodine simply because the word "thyroid" has been mentioned in relation to their disorder. Doesn't seem to matter whether they have hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism
