Iodine and hypothyroidism
I am unsure about the link between hypothyroidism and iodine: I recently started a new product and I realised there is a lot of iodine in the product.

AMD in Merseyside / Bootle area
I’m thinking about moving from London to the Merseyside / Bootle area. I have treatment in my local London teaching hospital for AMD and corneal dystrophy, and I’m allergic to iodine. I’ve had so many injections to both eyes I’ve lost count, but it’s been approx. 5 years of treatment. It’s been difficult

Should I try and get referred to add t3?

Iron treatment
I’ve had RLS for decades, getting worse, but actually talked to my GP only yesterday for the first time after reading a long article in the BMJ in March, and keeping a diary of symptoms for the past month. On the International RLS Study Group rating scale I scored 20, which was the top end of moderately

Raising awareness of Iodine Deficiency & Thyroid-related Issues
Years ago governments made the decision to add fluoride to our water and bromide to our flour (think bread). Both of these elements counter the Iodine in our systems. “Iodine deficiency is the leading cause of preventable mental and developmental disabilities world-wide" “Iodine deficiency has lead

Increased TSH
Hi, I just wondered if anyone had any advice. I’ve been having symptoms of a out of whack thyroid for a while now and have my bloods done every 6-8 weeks. My antibodies always come back negative and up until now my TSH has always been between 1.4-2.2. My white blood count seems to drop every so often

Anyone else get super itchy, highly sensitive fingertips?
This only started a few days ago but I’m wondering if it could be thyroid related. The tip of my finger is irritatingly super itchy. Like I want to constantly rub it against the sharp corner of my worktop. All the time. It’s also really sensitive. I had RAI treatment ages ago and paranoid about nerve

Iodine and sea salt
I see a Dr. David Brownstein an alternative doctor in Michigan. He has written eight books two of them are about Iodine and sea salt. He says Iodine and salt are very low in our diets. He recommends Lugol's Iodine (a prescription ) and a Celtic Sea Salt from a mine in Brittany France. The salt does

Back on levothyroxine, dose upped
Hi, I've had hypo for a while now and felt a bit better before when I was taking 125mcg synthroid. However my GP got scared back then that the TSH was too low and reduced my dose to 75. Of course this made me feel terrible again. So I tried some NDT but didn't fare too well on the Thai brand, that caused

Banging noise in ears

Have been bouncing from 100mg to 150mg to try and get a happy medium, have three weeks ago met middle ground at 125mg. I'm now suffering from ringing in my ears and I'm freezing

Help needed in long term effects of RAI for Graves Disease, long term use of Levothyroxine and how I go about transitioning to NDT.
Hi all, To give a brief history - I was diagnosed with Graves’ Disease in 2000. After 6 years on Propananol, Levothyroxine and Carbimazole, I had Radio Active Iodine in 2006 and have been on varying doses of Levothyroxine ever since. During my routine yearly blood test at the end of 2019 it was detected

Insomnia
Hi all I’ve written many times on this site and I apologise for my continuing moaning but I’m getting desperate with my restless legs.. Last night I didn’t sleep at all and at 4am. sat on the edge of my bed and with head in hands cried with frustration. At the moment I’ve been taking pramipexole 0.088

Gallstones
Hi my husband has liver cirrhosis and now gallstones, he is in agony most of the time but they won't remove the gallbladder, he's at the end of his tether and now drinking more because with the codeine it's the only thing that slightly dulls the pain. It's a huge strain on out relationship. Just after

Hopefully no more injections 😃
So 12 months ago I was referred to Opthalmology after an opticians appointment and had a macular oedema in my left eye. I saw a consultant and he said brvo. After a short time I started receiving lucentis injections. I dreaded these as always had such bad after effects. I would be climbing the walls
