Please Help - Hashimoto, Low Grade Fever, Prolactin...
Hi everyone, I have Hashimotos - antibodies always high. TSH has been rollercoaster - going between hyper and hypo - now uncontrolled hypo. Breasts have been sooooo sore and have have low grade fevers for a month - bloodwork done today and my prolactin levels are high. Does anyone have any insight?

Uncertain results
I have a prolactinoma however my levels of prolactin have dropped to below 1000 so I don’t require medical intervention. When I went to endo I highlighted that I was also concerned about my thyroid as my mother and sister have underactive thyroid glands I have many symptoms of low thyroid and symptoms

I am in such a muddle. GP has advised I take T3 only and immediately stop taking daily Levothyroxine 125mcgms .
This summer a GP confirmed I have Hashimotos following an NHS Thyroglobulin Autoimmune Antibody result of 3.000. I have been Gluten and Dairy Free ever since. Private tests, see below, confirm a lower result, 1275.000. I am hoping my diet and supplement approach is starting to take effect. For two months

First level completed. Hurray! What next?
Hi all, first of all, many thanks for all of you for supporting me through my diagnosis of infertility, which happened quite in a "crude" way (an ectopic pregnancy that doomed my right tube and the contemporary discovery of a left hydrosalpinx) at the end of May this year. After several (useless) appointments

Finally prescribed some DHEA supplements, but I am nervous about potential side effects!
I have had a long batle with extreme fatigue for the last 2 years, along with a range of other symptoms which have been progressively been getting worse! After 2 years of repeated bloods, ultrasounds, CT scans and MRI's the trail led to an issue with my hormones. The majority of hormonal blood tests

Prolactin and CRPCa ?
Maybe we need to ablate prolactin as well as testosterone? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6065049/

Primary turns into Secondary with Medication?
Hi everyone, I am new here and overwhelmed with confusion! Has anyone ever seen someone start out as a classic Primary Hypothyroid and then once medicated they develop Secondary Hypo? My new Dr seems stumped but leaning towards that I have Secondary due to my blood work that I've been having. Also

Hyperthyroid - What else is there to do?
I’m a female, 33 years old, married, no kids. I discovered I had hyperthyroidism about 3 months ago. I’d gone in for an obgyn appt because I missed a period in March and then had a very light period in April. We were hoping to start getting pregnant. The doctor did a blood test that showed it was a problem

Primary Lymphedema in 4 limbs & Venous Disease :(
Hi guys, I posted almost a year ago when I was first diagnosed with Primary Lymphedema at age 44. The hospital repeated the scan this year due to extravasion (leaking) of the dye during my first scan. I was praying they had the diagnosis wrong & that it would all be a terrible mistake! How wrong could

OMG! An honest and frank GP?
I am gobsmacked. I recently changed GP practice after fervent recommendation from local friends. Initially saw the locum. They phoned me the day they received my forms and I had an appointment with the locum that afternoon. She listened. I explained what I thought was going on. I then apologised for
