Hi, I'm a 45 yr old female and I went to the GP last week with a range of symptoms, including onset of pins and needles, limb weakness, tired, mouth sores. They ordered full bloods and I've got the results. The GP has only picked out low Vitamin D and advised me to start on a daily supplement and have

The other B vitamins
Hello, I've just read that B6 deficiency can cause pins and beedles and possibly other symptoms similar to B12 deficiency. It's made me wonder about the need to test for other B vits besides Folate and B12. So far my daughter and I have tested B12, Folate, Vit D, Iron Panel, Thyroid antibodies, CRP

I was on 3 grains at that stage and she cut it down to 1 and then

Is thyroid my main issue?
UpdateJust started on Thyroxine 25mcg. I feel worse. I notice I am not able to tolerate stress especially emotional. I don't like being around stressy people either. I know adrenal fatigue is not an NHS diagnosis but perhaps it is my main problem after a year in a job with management I can't see eye

Disrupted sleep with increased T4
Hello dear Thyroid UK, I had thyroid cancer in August 2021 with part of my thyroid and a parathyroid removed. Since then, I've been trying to get an ideal dose of Levothyroxine T4. I did take a very low dose of T3 (Cytomel) briefly. I felt great alert-wise but experienced headaches, nausea and anxiety

Hi all, I've been reading many posts since my Rheumatoid Arthritis diagnoses in 2020 and have found invaluable information on many topics and been very impressed by the supportive outlook everyone has.

Does Anyone Feel?
I am wondering if its possible to feel as well on thyroid replacement as I did pre hypothyroid. Just for background looking back 4 years ago I felt really fit and healthy,had plenty of energy, was going to the gym. Then the pandemic hit and my gym closed down and went bust. In June 2020 I finally started

Reassurance needed on starting T3
I am in the early stages of adding liothyronine to my levothyroxine regime of 20+ years. The Endo instructed me to change overnight from 75mcg levo to 25mcg plus 2x 5mcg liothyronine. Thanks to advice on this forum (SlowDragon) I learnt that I should proceed slowly and have so far dropped my levo to
