Wondering about Betadine/Povidone-Iodine solution and Thyroid
Hello all, I am preparing for a vacation - something long overdue :-) In my preparations, I decided I needed to bring along a nasal "mist" that would essentially decontaminate my nose from any yucky stuff, viruses - covid or whatever else may be lurking. I just realized that this solution has iodine

Nighttime angina
I have mild ischaemic heart disease and had occasional exercise-related attacks of angina which now seem well-controlled on Nicorandil 10mg, half-tablet am and pm. A few months ago, I had surgery on a badly-broken femur, and a number of temporary medications including morphine and codeine. Since then

Why is my TSH increasing?
I had my thyroid removed in Jan 2020 due to thyroid cancer and had RAI in June 2020. Since June 2020 my levothyroxine dose has stayed the same. My TSH has always been below range my levels are been suppressed due to cancer. My last blood test at GP surgery showed my TSH has increased to 0.43 from 0.22

Think I'm just starting out... Heart Inflammation/Myocarditis
Hi all, I've replied to a couple of posts so far but not actually written one myself. I'm not usually one for writing spiels but I'm wondering if it might be cathartic for me, and maybe someone can offer more insight, or get some from this. This seems to be a lovely, supporting space from what I've

Is Long-Term Antithyroid Use the Best Treatment for Graves Disease?
This is a three-way chat among endos about long-term treatment of Graves using methimazole (effectively the same as carbimazole). Interesting the way they say that the 18 to 24 month "standard" period of treatment was based on assumption. That true long-term treatment (five, maybe ten, years) is quite

Pregabalin, Dosage thoughts?
Hi, I restarted Pregabalin in Feb. this year partly I have to say out of desperation, there being nothing else prescribeable available to me, GP had allowed me to trial Codeine but it took 90mg to suppress symptoms and there was no way that was going to be viable long term, more potent Opioids were

Salivary Glands Swollen 6 Months Post RAI
Hi everyone and thanks for reading! I had RAI treatment in October of 2021. My dose was 100 mci. I immediately had swollen and painful salivary glands which subsided in a day or two. I have had no issues with them until the beginning of June. Now, they constantly swell when eating. Some days are worse

Updated Thyroid levels and new Vitamin readings
Hi, I recently posted as a Newbie (under the name Sailorbo, which I've now discontinued as I had a previous registration with the BHF). As a quick recap, had a full Thyroidectomy last September due to Papillary Cancer. I'm not having Radioactive Iodine as I already have poor saliva and it might make

Full panel and limited panel test results
I have my results back after highlighting my decision to do so on here a few weeks back. I took two panels of tests from different providers: Blue Horizon (test - Premium Gold) and Monitor My Health (MMH), both taken from the same single blood draw at my GP's surgery. Blue Horizon tested the same as

Statins and underactive thyroid
I've had an underactive thyroid after radioactive iodine treatment 20+ years ago. After a recent health check - no thyroid results - but cholesterol results are 'a cause for concern'. I'm seeing the nurse next week when I expect statins will be suggested. The results are Cholesterol 6.1mmol/l

Iodine contrast for a CT scan with Hashimoto's and reduced T3/T4 after ruptured ovarian cyst
Good afternoon! This morning I attended a hospital appointment for a CT scan to investigate the cause of my tinnitus. I didn't realise until today that I would need to be given an iodine contrast, which was administered during the scan via a cannula. Since having this done I have started to become concerned

GP not really understanding
I had RAI around 5 years ago for Graves disease which I have had since 1991, RAI was considered the best option as I had relapsed 3 times and can't take Carbimozole. When I was controlled by propylthiouracil my TSH was kept around 0.8 and T4 around 20. It took two years post RAI for me to feel any
