Anyone tried ThyroLux supplements for Hashimotos or can recommend a different thyroid medication/ supplement
Iam looking at trying ThyroLux it seems to get good reviews but not sure if women are taking it for a supplement or whether it will actually be able to be used long term as a supplement to help control Hashimotos and keep TSH under control? It does have iodine in it so bit wary as I have felt more hypo

on-going Thyroid
In April. 22. I had some bloods taken and showed I was just starting to relapse, again. My Endo told my GP to increase my Levo from 100 to 125mg but keep my Carbimazole the same 40mg. In Oct 22 I had further bloods taken and this time showed I was going under-active So my Endo ordered my Levo to

Concern about Levothyroxine
Hi I have Hashimotos, but no treatment yet as my TSH is still not high enough. Been feeling rubbish for ages, and was hoping Levothyroxine would help once I am able to go on it. Problem is, for some while now if I have foods or meds that contain iodine, my BP and pulse go very high causing palpitations

Lost, confused, worried - trying to conceive and thyroid/lining/progesterone issues
Looking for some help/guidance/support. Apologies in advance for the long post. My husband and I, both 31 and healthy, have been trying to conceive for a year now with no success. We've both had a number of tests and through my own reading and persistent private re-testing have identified my thyroid

More recent bloods & dose increase
After my last post regarding my private blood tests, my Endo increased my levo to 100/125 alternate days. I've just had more blood tests, 6 weeks on through the Endo so no Ft3 and again he says they're in range! I really lost my sh*t and got out my list and explained how I've been feeling since having

Been very hard to find a suitable multi-vit
I have been here long enough now to realise that I need only very select vits/mins in high quality and the right doses and absolutely do not need a ton of stuff that ordinarily gets put into the std packages eg iodine / iron/E/A/boron /B plus the rest etc etc But as I try to save packaging and costs

just When I thought all was OK
I am here again looking for some guidance. Doing well then started to feel anxious. I am currently taking 2 grains of NDT and 25mcg of T3. Decided to do a blood test and my results are below…I have been taking the exact amount for some time .. but my results are different and why? What shall I increase

Anagrelid to Interferon and Hashimoto.
I’m seriously thinking of changing from Anagrelid to interferon. I’ve always had heart palpitations from Anagrelide. All doctors to date said no interferon (I have Hashimoto) and no HU ( I have inborn anaemia). When I tried it once, I had nasty neurological side effects. Now I found a new MPN

TT or RAI
HiI have Graves disease - diagnosed 30 Sept 22 with zero TSH and high TRAB count. Carbimazole 40mg less than 3 weeks and neotrophils dropped with slightly raised AST and ALT liver enzymes. Endo told my GP to stop that and go on PTU. One week on only beta blockers then started 400mg PTU. Liver enzymes

Hashimoto's and CT scan with Iodine Containing Contrast Materials
I had a CT scan in August. No one warned me that this would involve an IV with an Iodine Containing Contrast solution. No one had any idea how this would affect me with regard to thyroid levels. In other words, I encountered the usual apathy with regard to being a thyroid patient and what my needs

liquid radioactive iodine therapy
hello. I’m booked in at Mount Vernon hospital on November 14th for RAI. I’m totally rubbish at swallowing tablets so they have agreed to give it to me as a liquid. I’m now getting anxious it may be a massive beaker full and May taste disgusting Has anyone else had it this way and if so what was

Advice on Medichecks Results Please
Hello, my first time posting! As advised on this forum I stopped Meds 24hrs before test, it was at 9.20 in the morning. The only supplement I take is Colecalciferol 800unit capsules prescribed by GP as at one point I had extremely low vitamin D. I’m on Levothyroxine 100mcg daily (Accord). I was diagnosed

Diazepam addiction.
Hi, I have been addicted to diazepam for a few years and have finally tapered down over a few months to 1mg per night. I honestly don't think it is strong enough to matter but if I don't have one just before I go to bed I cannot sleep. Also would taking magnesium oxide and 1mg of diazepam interact

Iodine in yoghurt...and the possibility of it interfering with correct blood test result.
I am dairy free and I have just had my Thyroxine reduced from 125 mg to 100mg. My question is that the Tesco plant based soya plain yoghurt that I normally would have, now has iodine added. One fifth of a pot, my normal consumption, contains 45.0µg iodine. I am due to have a retest to see if the reduction
