Elevated Diastolic Blood Pressure & Thyroid?
I’ve read that thyroid issues can increase diastolic blood pressure while systolic remains normal. I’ve been seeing a slight increase / trend with this. Has anyone else seen this and it meant levothyroxine increase needed?

Thyroid, Cortisol And Sodium Question
Hi All, Got my latest results and it's a bit messy. I got off NDT 1,5 grains and switched to 88 mcg of levo, my old levo I was on before. Prior to that, I was on 75/88 mcg, alternating. So I increased and now re-checked my bloods after 8 weeks. Btw, I'm well versed in everything recommended here

Parathyroid test is high
I've recently had a blood test (yearly bloods) to check my thyroid levels as I have an under active thyroid. My doctor also did my Parathyroid which has shown up as high and he's referred me to an endocrinologist. Does anyone know what this means?

Interesting article about effects of medication on thyroid function in dogs. However, many human studies are referenced too.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10473007/ Although this 2023 paper is about how medications affect thyroid function in dogs, I found much of relevance to humans given within the text body, with good references. I found it an interesting read and the first diagram particularly illuminating

Medichecks advice
Hello, I am planning to do a full thyroid and vitamin test with Medichecks. Firstly, is there a discount for Thyroid UK members please, and if so, how do I get it? Also, I think members of this forum might have some advice on when to do the test. Thank you for your support in advance.

Switching to NDT or adding T3?
Hi everyone, Related to my earlier post about sources of T3 and NDT I'd like some advice on whether and how to take these. I had an appointment with an NHS endocrinologist this week who dismissed my symptoms and refused any dose or medication changes. He insisted that the following results were '

Update after Endo
Good morning, I'm just writing this as an update to anyone who may be interested in my seemingly-odd case... My Endo appointment went well. (Or so I thought but if you're learning from this post, please read the comments!) She believes I have Graves disease, despite the antibodies indicating Hashimotos

hi. Just received these private results. I know I have a goitre and am on carbimazole 5mg x3 a week. Been referred to an endocrinologist. Does it mean that I have to have my thyroid removed if carbimazole has stopped working. I feel exhausted and I have pressure behind my eyes. Thank you.

18 weeks pregnant on NDT with low T4
I was diagnosed with Hashi while going through my first round of IVF in May. Endo put me on a very low dose of Levo (50mcg) and when my TSH was low enough, he told me to stop. IVF cycle failed and when I retested my TSH a few weeks later, it was 56. Started on Levo again and felt awful. Ended up getting

Thyroid test denied
Hi everyone, I'm very confused right now. For the first time in fifteen years, I had a GP asking all sorts of irrelevant questions when I asked my thyroid to be tested and the Free T3 included. In the end, according to them, the lab didn't test the FRee T3. Obviously, this is due to the GP's input

Cancerous thyroid nodules. Are they painful sometimes?

Thyroid and stomach issues
Hi everyone,I have been on Levothyroxine for 4 years, I just switched to Tirosent medication 6 months ago. I have struggled with Diverticulitis and HPlori. The Dr keeps putting me on Protonix (Proton Pump Inhibitor) until yesterday, I was told to go off it and take Amoxicillin and Metronidazole. This

Switching from Armour Thyroid to T4/T3
I’m changing from Armour Thyoid to T4/3 prescribed by local Endo partly for financial reasons but also as I’m concerned about supply issues and monitoring. Should I swop gradually or is it better to finish the AT then start the T4/3 the next day. I currently take AT 1 grain am and 3/4 pm and have been

B12 sublingual
Hi, I suppose this has been addressed before, but....Is there any reason not to take sublingual B12 around the same time as ndt? Usually I space the sublingual B12 a couple hours away from ndt but figured the B12 is bypassing the digestive system & the ndt is not. My TSH, FT4&3 are all good. Since
