iodine? Or not?
I am thinking of getting supplements to help my general all round health but was just offered iodine at a health store. Didn't think it was wise to take Iodine when on thyroid meds. Can anyone advise me please?

Oncology ENT referral
At the end of June (25th) I started to have terrible ear ache. I tested positive for covid a couple of days later. As soon as I was negative, I went to the doctor. My ear canal was incredibly swollen. I got an antibiotic and anti fungal ear spray. It didn’t go away so I got another course of the spray

Salivary gland pain
Has anyone experienced salivary gland problems after RAI? I had RAI two years ago and sometimes have pain under my ear when swallowing a bit like I had when I received RAI.

PD Dialysis - Week 5 - Training Day 4
So today (Thursday), it was solo flight day. The PD nurse had me go through the entire connection procedure (which I will document once I get it all typed up this weekend) myself. No major mistakes other than spilling some iodine from the Cap onto my pants (learned to put something over my pants when

Codeine with paracetamol
I am suffering from sciatic pain which started back in June. I managed to get a GP telephone consultation, and have been prescribed 10 mg Amytripteline , along with a combined cedeine and paracetamol. The latter has helped,but only when I take it. I would like to know if anyone has taken codeine

Blood tests for chronic fatigue, hair loss, brain fog
Recently I went to get blood work done after experiencing some lethargy, lack of focus and brain fog. Pretty much everything came back within the normal range except for my LDL and total cholesterol which were slightly elevated but nothing too out of whack (LDL 125, HDL 50, total 207) . My doc said I

Thyroidectomy or Radioactive Iodine Treatment?
I am hyperthyroid through a multi nodular goitre. I was on Carbimazole for 18 mths and taken off to see whether it had sorted itself out. On my fourth quarter check after stopping my TSH has fallen and T3&T4 both gone over the top of the range, GP says primary hyperthyroid again. I ask the above question

Diazepam/Valium
I was subscribed Valium in the late 1970s & it worked in that it cured my social anxiety & I could live a normal life. I got married, had children & bought a house. Everything was fine apart from the fact I was addicted for over 40 years but as long as I had the tablets, I was happy & content. I managed

Awaiting a diagnosis, would love to connect with others, as feeling so low
I'm mid 40s and for the past 6-9 months I've been having bowel/abdo issues - including constipation and then urgency. I also have constant abdo pain, predominately in my left hand side that gets much just before and during my period. This month I feel like I'm in some kind of flare as the pain is not

Unsuitable for radiofrequency ablation for thyroid nodule
I posted a couple of months ago about my endocrinologist referring me for
radioactive
iodine
treatment for toxic nodule and what they deem subclinical hyperthyroidism. Your insights and knowledge were invaluable at that time, so thank you.

Any thoughts of taking Iodine, orally, as well as taking 50mg of Levo for hypothyroidism? Thanks Satva

Endo adding T3
Hello everyone. I’m from the USA and love to read all of your posts here. I get so much valuable information here than I do in my own country. I had thyroid cancer 3 1/2 years ago and my thyroid was removed. I’ve had several RAI treatments. Normally my simulated TSH returns back to below 1. This time
