painkiller recommendations?
hi all, I hope everyone is okay. I’ve been struggling with chronic daily pain, I have severe endo which has caused one of my kidneys to fail and so I have a stent in my left kidney to help it drain. This contributes to my pain but it is mainly a deep ache in my hip, pelvis and abdomen which I’m sure

Iodine Is Not The Bad Guy
Have you ever wondered why more women than men end up with Hashimotos? And why, of those women, many develop hypothyroidism after pregnancy? It happened to me, and to many other women. Medical science is slowly piecing it together, and there are many variables, both on this continent and others, including

Endometriosis since I was 21
Hi guys, I’ve been diagnosed with endometriosis cysts in my left ovaries, one has grown and 2 are still small, now I have two on my right ovaries, I’m going for my prostap injection but I’m scared it’ll mess my insides up more as I’ve been on codeine nearly everyday, been to a&e so many times that I’

Do I reduce thyroxine or T3 🤔
I’ve just got my latest results done by my Endo and am expecting a call from him as I’ve had a message from his secretary that my results are high and he wants to speak to me and TSH suppressed. TSH 0.05 FT4 - 22 ( 12-23) FT3 - 6.5 (3.1 - 6.8 ) I feel absolutely fine but I know he will want

Advice on Block & Replace please
Hi all, Finally had my Endo appointment yesterday. A reasonably positive appointment. She gave me time to speak and ask all the questions I wanted to. This was the best but there nearly an hour. She looked at all my results and suggested I’ve Been unstable for a long time. No way! When she got to

Thoughts/advice on plant milks containing iodine please?
Only just occurred to me that the iodine in the Oatly that I really love may not be a good thing to consume. I'm very hazy about iodine and thryoid plus Levothyroxine. So I thought I'd better consult with all the experts here. Are there basic rules with easy numbers? Is there a 'good'/ 'bad' form

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

Pain relief failing - Help!
Hi, I’m new here but it’s been really interesting to read everyone’s posts and know I’m not going through it alone. I had a laparoscopy last June where they excised endometriosis from my pouch of Douglas. I was in agony before, so much so I had to take weeks off work (I’m a primary school teacher)

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

Changed to medication
Hi everyone. I've been on dihydrocodiene for about 15 years due to chronic pain following a road crash leaving my feet crushed and pinned and my neck broken. Dihydrocodiene has made the pain manageable but I have been told this month by my GP pharmacist that they can no longer prescribe it as it has
