TSH after RAI treatment.
Just wondering is there a pattern to how the TSH performs following RAI treatment. I had RAI in 2008. Presently my TSH is very low/suppressed. As to be expected my Gp has reduced my levo from 100 to 75 mcg. And seeing Greygoose most comprehensive response to Supul , I know my thyroid has been mismanaged

Any midnight treatments/ tricks to help sleep when Codeine hasn't worked and stem the attack?
I'm 28, Male and have been living with it for 10 years, on/ off and manageable in earlier life, it's progressively getting worse, especially recently as I've lost weight/ exercising more. Have tried Gabapentin and Iron supplements in the past to no avail. Usually it comes on like an attack either when

FIL treatment on hold to treat the lung
Hi guys. My FIL was diagnosed with PC 2yrs ago. He’s 81 now. It was picked up after a scan for a hip replacement. It had already matastised into his hip. Then was found in his shoulder too. Since then he’s had ADT and when that stopped working then he was on a trial drug (can’t remember the name). He

Reducing prednisolone slowly.....advice about withdrawal pains versus flare needed.
Good morning all . I was diagnosed with PMR in June this year and after initially responding well to 15mgs had to increase to 20mgs for 2 weeks before starting a very slow taper. My pain is so much better now ( virtually pain free on most days) and during September I started to slow wean from 14mgs to

1st Chemo update - pain
Hi I've had my 1st chemo on 16 Sept, coming out of it the other end, had body pains, all my body felt like it was being pulled and stretched from all sides, was told it was the injection for white blood cells which was doing its work.....I was in so much pain, my Oncology team were great they prescribed

So scared of starting PTU
I have a hot thyroid nodule which makes me hyperthyroid. I had RAI at the end of 2017 (don't want surgery) and while it greatly improved my condition I am not fully cured. I am 38 years old and just found out I am pregnant. So my doctor will be changing me from methimazole to PTU, half a pill a day.

Advice on my bloods and plan please?
Hi there, I am new here, I was referred because my bloods suggest subclinical hypothyroidism. I would love some input on my interpretation and plan if possible! I have plenty of the symptoms and it runs in my family. I am 28. I also have an MECFS diagnosis, and delayed cortisol production in the mornings

Changing from Levo to NDT
Hi All, Can I ask those of you that did not get on well with Levo and changed to NDT, what changes did you notice? Especially those who have had either TT or RAI. Just curious. Thank you.

Blood test results
Hi everyone. I’ve had some test results back. I had RAI in 2011 for hyperthyroidism and I’m therefore hypo. I’ve never really felt healthy since and in more recent years have got worse with aches and pains, anxiety, low energy levels, weight gain and more. So as you can see, B12 is low so I know what

Will I ever feel like my old self again?
Hi I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer after a TT and had RAI last month. I thought after RAI I would magically return to my old self but it just hasn't happened. Im constantly worrying that the treatment hasn't worked, I don't find out until the end of the year when I have my scan. I try to keep myself

Post vasectomy pain syndrome
Nearly 6 years ago I had a vasectomy, from day 1 I've had debilitating pain so bad that even strong pain killers such as pregabaline and cocodamol didn't even touch it. I'm now on morphine patch due to addiction to codeine. I'm now hoping to have the local anaesthetic in target area. It has pretty much

Different approaches to delivering injections
I sometimes wonder if there is ‘best practice’ in delivering injections or is it always down to the individual practitioner. Last Friday I had the same person give me injections as one time when it took 5 days to recover. She is very kind and takes her time, explains every move, cleans well. and

Follicular thyroid cancer
I was diagnosed with a benign goitre back in 2015. After noticing they had grown I’ve had further investigations and then a partial thyroidectomy. I have been told I have follicular cancer and now need to have the rest removed and potentially nuclear iodine. My tumour was encapsulated in thyroid but
