Cortisol tests
Hi, I just had my cortisol retested to see if there had been any improvement from February 2023. Since August 2023, I have been slowly titrating NDT Armour and taking vitamins, minerals and amino acids prescribed by a private thyroid Dr. My iron & B12 are good, working on increasing vit D. I'm still

ferritin high
hello. I’m new to the group I’ve had under active thyroid for approx 2 years diagnosed during covid. I was just told over the phone you need thyroxine it’s sent to the chemist and that’s all the info I got. I’ve had another blood test as my shoulders and hips are in almost constant discomfort all that

Hello everyone. Firstly I want to say a big thanks to everyone that helped me understand my mum's results and situation. I also got my wires crossed and gave some wrong info. My mum did have a test before they prescribed 25mg, TSH 8.58. They said as she was 'borderline' they would try levo before considering

Results of blood test
Hi, after OH had high Tsh Levels a couple of weeks a go (radioactive iodine 14 tears a go) gp prescribed higher dose of thyroxine - now 175Results from medicheck above Low vit d - would this affect the thyroxine absorption? If he sorts that would it then be sensible to reduce the thyroxine back down

Private Blood Test Results
Hello, Diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 2019, it was a long and sickly road to diagnosis and treatment. Levothyroxine only didn’t work for me and after a couple of not so great endo appointments I finally found a really good endocrinologist who agreed to add in liothyronine and commenced me on 20mcg

Rapidly gaining weight.
I've gained a stone in weight all of a sudden, in just over a month with most of it while I've been on a calorie controlled diet the past two weeks and staying well below the calorie limit. Could any of this be down to my thyroid? My latest test results were tsh 2.11 ( 0.5 -4.4 ) and t4 12.1 ( 8.9 -

Is this thyroid?
hi there, I have been struggling with what I thought was Peri menopause/menopause symptoms for a while (dizzy spells, headaches, brain fog, dry eyes, fatigue etc) Last year these symptoms got progressively worse with pain under left arm in lymph node and weakness to the point I felt like collapsing

thyroid and high blood pressure
Hi all So have been struggling to get a GP appointment to discuss my Thyroid meds. After MUCH sulking from me my medication was reduced to 75mcg from 100. Although I managed to hold out for 100 whilst I was on holiday- feel not so good so have been trying to get my meds reinstated. This since end

Blood results - Any Advice?
Hi! Just looking for maintenance recommendations and any advice is greatly appreciated! Went to a new doctor (endocrinologist) to get a 2nd opinion on my thyroid condition. Of course, my goal is to heal and get off meds completely one day but she said she does not feel it is possible. Was first
