Levo increase needed
How can doctors expect hypothyroid patients to feel good with a free t4 at only 50 percent? Doesn't even make sense.

Lipid results
Since my last post regarding elevated finger prick sample for cholesterol, I am now in receipt of my formal blood test results for lipid profile which are borderline and need to speak to Doctor. I do have a GP follow up next week to discuss these but wondered if anyone on here can interpret them and

Update on Head/neck pressure post from a few days ago
I have a previous post discussing this but as a quick recap - for some reason, after about 2.5 years of being on a steady dose, I suddenly felt unwell and v overmedicated on holiday about 8 weeks ago. I dropped my dose by 5, then another 5mcg and felt fine about from about two weeks afterwards until

SCT update
I’m now on day +284 & so far seem to be progressing well. I know things may change, but hopefully I’ll continue to progress. I’m managing to walk most days, weather permitting, although I do get tired in the evening. My tablets are now being decreased & my hair is growing back grey & curly - not happy

Genetic Testing?
Does anyone have an experience to share about getting genetic testing done on your biopsy samples? I'm interested in three tests: (1) a DECIPHER test, (2) a full gene sequencing of tumor DNA and RNA (e.g., at Claris Labs), and (3) the Artera AI analysis of digitized pathology slides. Also, if anyone

accidental overdose of thyroxine
I’m on 100 mcg thyroxine and the kart prescription they only had 25 mcg so I was taking 4 tablets a day and then the recent prescription was 100 mcg. I’ve just realised today that I’ve been taking 4 100 mcg a day I think for 4 days from how many are gone. In a bit of a panic. I’ve rang 111 and they called

BBC Article : Prescription drugs sold online without robust checks
Whenever I see this type of article - the BBC and others produce these things every couple of years, I think - I start worrying that I'm going to lose access to thyroid hormones on the web. I know this subject came up with the MHRA last year or the year before, but I don't have a link. Link : https:

Update following meeting with MO
For those following my journey, I had a face-to-face meeting with my MO today and learnt a few things I didn't know. Firstly, the genetic test of the liver tumour the NHS do only tests for BRCA - no other genes. The reason appears to be that the only treatment they would offer is a Parp inhibitor so

Considerations when starting out with private endo
I’m thinking of going to a private Endo. Looking at the list, there’s none in my county. I can travel half hour to one that’s just private and he sounds good but that means if I do get T3 and it does work, I’ll be forever paying for it (I don’t know costs yet). There’s one that’s NHS and private

T3 stopped 😡
Hi everyone ❤️ As some of you may know my gp stopped my T3 until I saw the endo on Dec 27th which didn't go well😠.. My gp said I would see the endo before my T3 ran out😂 this of course never happened so she gave me one months supply to tide me over. The appointment with the endo was for thyroid medication

GP advice needed please!
Hello, I was (eventually) diagnosed with Hashimoto's 25 years ago (the misdiagnosis nearly killed me, I was literally a week away from a coma, the consultant said.) I've been on 150mcg on day one and 175mcg day two, for 25 years. Every time I move house, the gp decides to reduce it, then puts it back

Apologies for this seemingly random question but which do members think has the ‘least worst’ effect on T4 - pain or analgesics?

Suspected Pernicious Anemia - what next?
Hello, I am very glad to have found this forum as I have been researching B12D and PA a lot recently. I became familiar with the society’s website and found it so helpful. I am 29F in the US and I suspect I have Pernicious Anemia. This is what I know so far (sorry in advance if this post rambles on)

B12 and Ferritin results
Just had blood tests and results for B12 are 201 (110-900) and ferritin 59 (30-337). Am I right in thinking these should be higher?
