Neck resection and thyroidectomy
I had a left hemi thyroidectomy 3 years ago and 3 doctors at the time felt that was sufficient. My latest US shows papillary cells in the lymph nodes on the left and central neck. I am scheduled for a left lymph node resection and removal of the right remaining thyroid at Mt Sinai on 4/20. I am so nervous

Endocrinologist advice and T3 reaction
Hi there again, hope you are all well. I am looking for some recommendations and advice if possible please. So I started taking t3 alongside t4 in February (after some help from this forum) building the dose up slowly to 20mg a day alongside 100mg of Levo. I had a bad skin reaction mainly on my face

Duloxetine - effects?
Hi there, I'm giving duloxetine (60mg/day) a try for endo pain management. It's day two for me, and it's said to work in 2 to 4 weeks. Yesterday, I had an upset stomach, and was very fatigued from it. Today, my stomach is fine, but I'm still rather fatigued (my ears are ringing a bit like how they ring

How much endo pain to endure, keeping on trying to work?
Hiya, I have a strange question about endo I hope you can help me with. I get to be one of the rare, lucky few with endo on my appendix (and colon, and other places too). I went to see the out-of-hours GP because I wasn't coping with the pain. The GP kindly gave me a remedy pack with codeine, diclofenac

Transitioning from 150mcg of Thyroxine to Metavive help please
Hi. I have been on 150 mcg of Thyroxine for 20 years. I am 54 and male. What prompted the switch: I recently started getting a lot of itching and hives on my arms particularly and other areas. I consulted a homeopath and found I was likely experiencing allergic reaction to Thyroxine. The treatment appears

Duloxetine
Hi Paige, I have taken Duloxetine for 10 years. I take the highest dose of 120mg slow release once a day in the morning. I am very susceptible to drugs but apart from piling weight on I have had none. It keeps me sane. I also take Amitryptyline 20mg at night and 30/500 Codeine phosphate Paracetamol.

Opioid Analgesics. Withdrawal from patients already prescribed long term.
I despair when I see this need for a person to get a "High" from a drug. These are the people who are causing medication to become higher class drugs and in the case of Codeine, which I am fighting the MHRA and Depth of health, to being withdrawn from sensible patients who benefit from relief of pain

Iodine/Ct Scan.
Iād be really grateful if anyone could answer a quick question. Thank you. My GP this morning has refused to issue my thyroid meds as Iām very overdue a thyroid blood test. However Iāve had a CT scan on a kidney this afternoon, and have just been told that any thyroid blood work will be inaccurate

After effects of Prostap, the menopause or codeine withdrawal? š¤¦š¼āāļø
Hi everyone, Iām struggling to work out whatās going on with my symptoms as they seem to be possible for all of the above!

Iodine test for Hashimotos
I am planning on having a urine iodine test. Would being on liothyronine only interfere with this test or contradict it in any way please?
