First time poster overwhelmed with symptoms and considering self-medicating with bovine adrenals & NDT. Asking for advice & recommendations
TLDR: First time poster diagnosed Hashimotos and POI, investigating IBS which is potentially also autoimmune cause. Fatigue, depression and anxiety are ruining my life. Low Adrenal Index Test results so considering self-medicating with Bovine Adrenals. High TSH and anti thyroid antibodies, but low-end-of-normal

Looking for a doctor / functional medicine
Hi everyone, I am on 4 grains NDT and 20 mcg T3 per day. My FT4 is just beneath normal range, FT3 upper third of range and suppressed TSH. My endo is supportive but says he has never seen anyone on so much thyroid replacement! I am wondering why I need so much (and have a few symptoms I would like

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.

Armor for Several Years. A Change To Happen. Experiences Needed.
Hi Community. I have been on Armour Thyroid for several years now. I changed insurance and chose a high deductible, and I think that is why it's no longer covered. Is anyone using the below meds and what has your experience been? Armour was great for me, has anyone had to switch that loved Armour and

Just had hysterectomy due to prolapsed bladder and think it's come back due to severe constipation.
Completely fed up. Does this mean I have to have surgery again? I have also ran out of ndt again for about the fifth time due to it being so expensive and my tsh was really high about 6.5 when I had blood test for my pre op. It was also high the previous time as I had ran out then as well. I hate

Update on my thyroid medication 🤦♀️
Hi everyone ❤️ I posted some weeks ago about my appointment with an endocrinologist on Dec 27th, who just stopped my T3 prescription and put me back on T4 levothyroxin to which in her own report she stated... This lady is intolorent to both T4 and T3, therefore I recommend she goes back on T4 levothyroxin

Help with my husband's results he is really struggling
I am so grateful to everyone on this forum as I have now been officially diagnosed with Hashimotos after going privately and opted for Armour NDT so next bloods will be first on meds and supplements. I wonder if I could get some wisdom on my husband's results. He has been ill for years now which was

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

Recommendations for an endocrinologist who will prescribe NDT
I would be very grateful for any recommendations by private message for endocrinologists who will prescribe NDT, as there are only a couple on the Thyroid UK list. I live in S W London, but location wouldn’t matter if they do online consultations. Many thanks.

antibodies
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.

Results of TSH Modification Experiment
I inquired last week about what effect I could produce on TSH within three days. I appreciate the expertise and wisdom I received. I had just seen an endocrinologist who wanted to cut back my NDT because my TSH was 0.027. You advised me to stick to my rights as a human being. The endocrinologist seemed

anyone got experience of private Drs or this reaction to dropping meds?
TO UPDATE, I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH AN ENDO FROM THE LIST AND AS MY ENDO ALREADY PRESCRIBES T3 ONLY THERAPY FOR ME (long story) HE MADE IT CLEAR THAT I WAS ALREADY GETTING THE BEST I PROBABLY COULD OUT OF AN NHS GP. SO NO NEED TO PAY PRIVATELY. Depressing to know no more nuanced help from anyone, but

Endo appointment, need NDT
I'm just waiting on an endo appointment (T4, T3 have not worked for me, nearly 4 years of chopping and changing meds by gp/endo). Because of gut/stomach issues (malabsorbtion) diarrhoea, cramps, inflammation) I spoke to a parathyroid /thyroid surgeon on Wednesday (with her for primary hyperparathyroidism

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?
Id be really grateful for thoughts on this please. I'm awaiting surgery on a nodule that's suspicious for follicular cancer but obviously as we know, they can't be certain until its taken out. What i want to know is, has anyone had a painful nodule that can be really sore consistently (8 months now
