Hi All I'm new to this site and have gained so much information it's amazing. I'm a 50 yr old lady diagnosed with Graves disease at 20. I had a subtotal thyroidectomy at 22 then radioactive Iodine at 27. I have been taking Levothyroxine in varying doses ever since. I am currently taking 75mcg Levo

Please someone give me some light?! I need a prescription for ndt or Armour thyroid in the uk, this is my 1st post, I am new 😓
Am at my wits end, just been told after nearly 2 years battling with my gp that he won't prescribe ndt privately... I've had my case taken to the doctor council which got rejected! I just need a dr who is willing to give me a prescription for ndt, I started off having an overactive thyroid after birthing

Let down
So months on since I started my process of finding out what was wrong with me and I got my date for my MRI. I turn up and basically felt like they did not want to go through with the scan. Every answer I had was being scrutinized (I do understand theres procedures and it is for safety). Because I constantly

Graves Disease Treatment/Recovery
Hi guys! I just wanted to send out a post of encouragement to everyone. This is a wonderful site to learn about treatment options for hyper and hypothyroidism and it helped me feel less alone! But I also think it is important to talk about the recovery process to give everyone who just got diagnosed

Iodine uptake test
Does anyone know the average range for this. Mine was 9% after 2 hours and I was diagnosed with Graves Disease.

Motor neurone diagnosis but think issues are thyroid related.
I’m posting on behalf of my dad. He was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer in Sept 2016. He had a 6 and half hour operation to remove his thyroid, 2 parathyroids, and over 40 lymph nodes as it had spread. He then had one dose of radioactive iodine and in early 2017 was given the all clear. After

link between super fitness and obesity
Just read 'The haywire heart' by Chris Case ,John MandrolaMD and Lennard Zinn, a book which I found to be quite fascinating. It is aimed at Super athletes but it contains a lot of well reasoned information and advice on dealing with Afib, and compares the super fit with other sufferers and ordinary

Graves’ disease - is remission possible?
My husband has seen a new endo today who told him that a chance of achieving a remission for a male are very slim and he suggested the RAI. The doctors have originally thought that he has TED but they seemed to have ruled it out now. My husband had a bad flare up in January and his levels were sky

Fireworks, perchlorate and fetal brain development linked
Every year, when the supermarkets fall over themselves to sell fireworks rather than food, I am reminded of the connection between a significant ingredient of fireworks and the thyroid. This year, whilst a bit late - Guy Fawkes and Diwali have been and gone - I am at least getting round to posting.

Are my levels ok
I am a 60 year old male. Diagnosed hyperthyroid in 2014. Had radio iodine treatment which made me hypothyroid. Symptoms not severe but suffer fatigue and tendon/muscle pain. Prescribed levothyroxine which took my TSH to 4.4. Persuaded GP to increase dose last year to 125 mcg per day. Reduced TSH to 2.5

Hi, I joined today. Is anybody else being treated for Hyperthyroidism and Multiple Sclerosis?
I can't remember how long I've been taking Carbimazole. Has always been 5mg and have never really felt 'normal', maybe coz of the MS too? Maybe 2 years. I was initially diagnosed with Hypothyroidism but stopped the Levothyroxine 100mg (I think) very soon after the pills hurt my brain like a needle
