I’m getting so frustrated with this underactive thyroid. My only symptom before I was diagnosed again was unexplained weight gain. I had put on half a stone but hadn’t changed any habits. After starting on levothyroxine I put on another 2 stone. This may have been made worse due to all my joints seizing

PSA increase.
My PSA has increased from .13 to .73 in 3 1/2 months. Does this mean I am castrate resistant. Or does it need to increase over a couple more samples first. Can my PSA change this much for other reasons. I am currently on Lupron. Thanks for any input.

Thyroid Antibodies
Just read a post from Thyroid UK about antibodies. The raised TPO connection seems clear, but then It says “The next group is the TG Ab. These levels rise as well as the TPO Ab levels in autoimmune thyroiditis, but to a lesser degree...” I don’t understand what this is saying…does it mean that BOTH

Donepezil as an aid for PSP
Hi all you good people, A couple of weeks ago a fellow traveller here wrote about her husband with PSP that as his cognition and swallowing declined, his Doctor prescribed Donepezil. Originally, he was on 10 mg of Donepezil which improved his swallowing, alertness and cognition. Two years later when

Have you experience of Chemotherapy and underactive thyroid?
I have recently completed chemo following surgery for a bowel tumour. I was wondering if anyone has experience of chemotherapy and underactive thyroid? I have continued to take 75 T4 and 20 T3. It’s difficult to know if the fatigue / sleep problems are to do with the thyroid or chemo. many thanks.
