Help for severe possible endo pain?
Hi, I’m currently awaiting scans and a laparoscopy to diagnose probable endometriosis but this has been significantly delayed due to doctors complacency and then the covid outbreak. Every period I have is utter hell. The flow and pain are severe, and I can barely leave bed. Going to the toilet also

Got all my results- what to do next??
I now have all my results back and not sure what to do next? 2003 I had graves and then took RAI. I’ve currently been on 125mg Levothyroxine per day. I’m 42 and I feel awful, fatigue, weight gain, moods, lack of interest, brain fog... joints aches, neck pain- few to mention. I’m sick of feeling like

Can't honestly cope with the brokenness of me, completely and utterly at the end of my rope
Hi everyone, I have just joined this community. I have had M.E for 10 years now, and along with that comes the depression of having this debilitating illness steal my life, but these last three weeks have been just unbearable. I am so used to living with pain, and have also been suffering with PTSD

Experiences of Topiramate for chronic migraines
Hi, this is my first time posting here. I’ve had chronic migraines for 18 months, diagnosed by a neurologist after having a bad spell of health and discovering hypothyroidism too.

Advice please
Recently, I've been experiencing hyperthyroid symptoms that are a bit extreme. I had RAI in January 2019, was diagnosed with Graves. Had a terrible conversion issue on levothyroxine, high reverse T3, high antibodies, and generally terrible time until February 2020. I've been seeing a functional medicine

Advise please on Pregabalin
Hi, I’ve previously had advise when I was taking Ropinirole. I was on this drug for 11 years ended up augmenting and acquiring a gambling habit. I was advised to come off the Ropinirole which I did, taking a long and painful time doing so. I took a couple of Codeine to help me at the end. Since then

Help With Starting point with Cannabis
Hi everyone. After a really bad bout of RLS, I went to see a north west based Neurologist, who really understood RLS, and helped me walk through the options again from scratch. Iron is now over 90, and tried tramadol and codeine which didnt do a lot, and the final option he has asked the GP to give

Frustrated, fed up and back to square one
I'm new here, I guess I'm looking for experiences that sound similar to mine and whether it's endo or other ways you got diagnosed. Background: - From 1st ever period, periods were a nightmare. Flooding, heavy, painful, went on pill aged 14. Stayed constantly on birth control to manage (7 different pills

Better work security and rights for us
Ok so I only recently joined this endo group as I was made to believe by a certain consultant the pain is all in my head, I was addicted to codeine or just wanted an op!! I read everyone’s comments, see how much it affects our daily lives and get angry. Endometriosis is a debilitating disease so why

Critique of Hypothyroidism Basics
Hi Could I get your thoughts on this summary: BACKGROUND A healthy thyroid gland produces thyroid hormones which regulate body, brain growth, development, body temperature, energy levels and metabolic functions. Hypothyroidism is when the thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough of hormone T4 and T3, with

High TSH, mid f T4 graves ablated thyroid now on thyroxine
Hi I had overactive graves thyrotoxicosis which was ablated using Radioactive iodine. The TSH levels are currently (Aug 19) 4.42 (range 0.3-5) and free T4 12.2 (7.9-16). I have gained weight and also have PCOS but heard that ideally TSH should be lower than 2 to be optimal. My doctor said as it’s in

Just managed to talk my consultat about not having RAI and Give the block and replace another go. He said if I have another relapse that i will have to go for it. Why do they push RAI over block and replace? Surely as we know that once it's done it's done and no going back. I am 42 and dont want to give

Monthly inj
Hi everyone, hope your all coping with lockdown. The new consultant (same clinic) I've been seeing since January after reading my notes put me on monthly inj....I think it's because other consultant kept me on 8 weekly even though they stopped inj in left eye due to scarring ( I was told)...although

Codeine and thyroid
Hi folks, I take codeine on a prescribed basis from time to time. Does anybody know if codeine interferes with the thyroid or thyroid hormones?
