Worrying new Thyroid results from Medicheck
Good morning to you all. I have just received a new set of results; My Gp is concerned and she has gone off to gain some advice and guidance. I am currently taking 150 mg of Levothyroxine daily. My Gp has tried to get me to take another 25 mgs daily but the extra dose does not seem to help and I feel

Bioflavonoids
I'm wondering if anyone on these boards has been recommended to consider taking these. They are thought to, possibly proven to, strengthen capillaries, so if that's the case, mightn't they not tend to prevent bleeds? I've taken rutin for years and years, but at the time my CNV/AMD started I was using

Is Hashimoto's possible without weight gain?
Having recently been diagnosed with autoimmune disorder/Hashimoto's, I have done a little reading and was curious as to whether it's possible to actually have Hashimoto's but with the total opposite of the weight gain symptom? I tick a lot of the boxes, but weight gain seems a very, very common - almost

Worsening breathing problems due to B12 deficiency?
Hi guys, I've been having a number of symptoms for the past 4-6 months which have increasingly become worse. Most notably, I've had gastritis-like symptoms, including bloating, wind, stomach discomfort and reflux, which often comes with a sort of 'lump in the throat'/tightness in my throat that comes

Too much gluten while pregnant linked to increased diabetes risk for baby
Strictly speaking, off-topic, as it is focussed on diabetes. However, as most will be aware, discussion of gluten is common and likely relevant to thyroid issues. I have posted the Guardian article link first as it is the most accessible. Then a link to the BMJ editorial and, finally, to the actual

Thyroid test results
I’ve just received my results from Medichecks and here they are. I am not on Levothyroxine , and haven’t been for two years. I follow a Gluten free diet which seems to have helped stabilise/lower my antibodies. I’m happy to go back on Levo if it’ll help lower my TSH and hopefully help with energy

Chapatti

I have written before, but basically I was diagnosed with Hashimotos 17 years ago and think I probably had it 20 years before that! A long fight. I was monitored for years but it was deemed that I did not need medication. I managed my symptoms with gluten free diet, exercise and supplements, and it

Lactose free diet
Hi. I wrote about going away on holiday over a week ago..I'm back and had a great time. Once again the food was a problem - but this time, I managed my gluten free diet well surprisingly.😁 But, my lactose free diet was difficult. So much in the restaurant at the hotel wasn't lactose free. Same when

Switching from Metavive II to T4/T3?
Hi all. Thank you to this group for all the help and advice that you give us. This morning I had an endocrinologist appointment and it went so well. Essentially the endocrinologist I saw agreed that I have issues converting T4 to T3 and levothyroxine alone was keeping my THS and FT4 levels at optimum

Rutin for haemoroids.
Iv`e read that taking rutin supplements is supposed to strengthen veins & help haemoroids. The thing that I`m wondering about is, is it safe to take it long term?

Gluten intolerant or fibromyalgia?
Hi all, My mother was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and a decade or so later so was I. But my husband found info somewhere on the internet which suggested testing a gluten free diet if you were suspected of having FM. I had such pain I could not dress, pull the duvet over me etc. After two weeks of no

Subclinical hypothyroidism treatment in pregnancy- bad reaction to levothyroxine
I would be very grateful for any advice anyone can provide. I have been advised by specialists in fertility & miscarriage that I should be treated with levothyroxine to obtain a healthy pregnancy. It’s a long convoluted story but this is based on 2 miscarriages, a complicated pregnancy, tsh levels
