B12 and Thyroid Test
I have just ordered advanced thyroid test from medi checks and was taken aback to read that B12 should be stopped 2 weeks before test. Because of neuropathy I self inject B12 every other day and have done ever since diagnosis of hypothyroidism over a year ago, whatever blood tests I have had. Should

Subclinical Hypo but symptoms have returned - advice please
Hi, I’m just looking for advice on how to approach the GP (it’s a teaching practice so Drs are never the same). There is a family history of thyroid problems (hypothyroidism with an immediate blood relative) and numerous other autoimmune diseases. I started experiencing non-specific symptoms (

Vitamin d
Currently trying to sort out my health after realising my stomach is not absorbing b12 (am SI). I’ve been on a low dose of d3 (500 ug) for years after being told by doctors it was low. The last d3 test I had my results came back at 68. However, I had taken the supplement that day. Are the test results

I got mine done last week and my results are just in and I am pleased that all looks okay. I have been supplementing

Update and latest results
Hello again lovely people. I thought I’d come back and update having been on Levo 50mcg since diagnosis 3 months ago. In early January the GP asked me to retest and only TSH was done (big let down but not unexpected)! I was amazed that after only 2 months on Levo 50mcg that my TSH had dropped to 0.44

Indapamide with levothyroxine?
I have been prescribed Indapamide for high blood pressure. I also have Ramipril which I take in the evening. The Indapamide pack says to take in the morning. Can I take it with my thyroxine? I couldn’t see any contraindications for it but is it going to impede the thyroxine? ShouldI take it at night

Bone profile?
Hi, could anyone tell me what the doctor means by bone profile? Recently had tests for B12 deficiency, got a telephone call a few days later asking me to come back in for them to do more tests. Said my bone profile was low, and mentioned something about potentially low vitamin d. Apparently my b12 is

Daughter’s results causing confusion - Hashimoto’s AND Graves??
Hi everyone, This post comes with a caveat. I’m sat looking through my daughter’s blood test results from the second part of last year. I’m doing this because she’s off college again with some sort of virus, this follows a week of Covid. I’m ashamed to say that I’m only looking at these results

help with results - Hashimotos?
Can someone help me interpret these results please? The anti-thyroidperoxidase is so high. Does this mean I have hashimotos? Ferritin and Vitamin D are on the low side. What level of supplements do people suggest? Mid 50s female. Currently on 125mcg levothyroxine. Slightly overweight but not massive

Help with results - what would you do?
Hello I finally got a private endo to agree to up my meds from 75mcg levothyroxine to 100 or112.5 if I felt it necessary in July 2023 allowing my TSH to fall below range, and that I understood and was willing to take the risks. My 3 pm slump was dangerous as I was fighting to stay awake on the way
