Advice for a newbie about blood test
First time posting. I am going for a blood test on the 24th at my GP surgery. I suspect I am hypothyroid after gaining around 45 pounds since 2019. I had a well-woman NHS check-up in 2019 and the doctor said my TSH levels were off, but not to an extent that needed medication. They said to come back if

Use of thyroid hormones in hypothyroid and euthyroid patients: a 2020 THESIS questionnaire survey of members of the Hellenic Endo Society
We have often discussed Greece and their use of T3 (*liothyronine) - moist especially due to the very reasonable price of their own T3 product from Uni-Pharma. For that reason, I half-expected an article regarding thyroid treatment in Greece to see T3 rather more visible than in the UK. Whilst they

Alternative to Levothyroxide on NHS
Hi everyone, My most recent results show my thyroid still needs to be re-medicated (long story but I came off Levo under the instruction of Dr Peatfield before he retired) but I am reluctant to go back on to Levothyroxine because it made me feel horrendous. I was previously taking 175mcg and my TSH still

Tsh 74.3 help!
After being in 75mg of Levo for 4 weeks, ( please read my last post) , my tsh went from 36.06 to 74.3… how is that even possible. For reference please look at the pic attached. I’ve started a few vitamins since then, magnesium, omega three, B12, D, selenium. But I don’t understand why my TSH would go

Hypothyroid misery! would appreciate on my latest lab results
I had become very symptomatic (extreme brain fog, fatigue, depression, weight gain, joint pain) after several years of doing well on 75 mcg levothyroxine, as my former gp kept my TSH at a 1, where I felt best. I relocated, and my new gp (testing only TSH once a year) felt my latest TSH results of 3.96

Which blood tests to take?
I’m due to see my doctor again in a couple of weeks, and whilst I’m due to do a full thyroid panel, I’m conscious that various advice on here has also advised to test a broader range of things. Off the top of my head, that should include: Ferritin Folate Vitamin D Vitamin B12 I’m currently ting selenium

Tricky Thyroid Patient! Advice please.
Hello, I have pasted my recent results below. Is anyone else known as a tricky thyroid patient?! These results are after a daily increase to 125mcg in July. My TSH has never been so low! However, I don't really feel any different. I feel 'flat' and fat! Still cannot lose weight and a couple of stones

Advice needed - before I lose the plot!
Evening all, looking for a little bit of advice. A few months ago my TSH which had been under control with levo had pretty much doubled within a couple of weeks, the Dr increased my meds from 100mcg to 125mcg. I left it 3 months before Re-testing through medichecks as I was unable to get a drs appointment
