Thyroid Nodules - Advice Please 🙏
I'm new here and it's my first time posting. It was noticed I had a large nodule on my thyroid while having a CT scan for an unrelated issue 5 weeks ago. I can feel a large lump on the right hand side of my neck which is also visible and an ultrasound scan has since confirmed there are several nodules

over active thyroid
Hi, I have been recently diagnosed with an over active thyroid following a barrage of symptoms which misled me to believe I was going through menopause. Fast forward I am having medz, I’m having pains in my throat and my eyes hurt like heck. (Graves disease) not nice and wondered as I am a newbie

Graves Disease
Hi, I have type 2 diabetes, I was over-prescribed metformin which had its horrors. When I came off it I was quickly diagnosed with thyroxicosis and hypercalcemia. Saw the endocrinologist yesterday. |He sat there and said do you know what you have wrong with you, then he told me I had Graves disease

Hypothyroidism
Does anyone know if someone who has had a thyroidectomy due to thyroid cancer and someone who suffers with hashimoto's experience the same long term symptoms?

Endo appointment, need NDT
I'm just waiting on an endo appointment (T4, T3 have not worked for me, nearly 4 years of chopping and changing meds by gp/endo). Because of gut/stomach issues (malabsorbtion) diarrhoea, cramps, inflammation) I spoke to a parathyroid /thyroid surgeon on Wednesday (with her for primary hyperparathyroidism

Atrophic Thyroiditis?
Hello everyone. After all the advice I received from my last posts, I have upped my Levothyroxine from 100mcg x 3 days and 125mcg x 4, to 125mcg every day. I’m still also talking 10mcg of Lio a day. I’ve booked a blood draw for 2 weeks time by which point I’ll have done 7 weeks of this. BUT meantime

Anticipated endo appointment 🤦♀️
Hi everyone ❤️ As some members will know I posted a few days ago that my gp will not do my repeat prescription for my T3 until I see an endocrinologist, for which she is doing the referral. As I told her I've got around 7 possibly 8 days of T3 left. Obviously I'm going to need to contact the surgery

thyroid specialist
I am looking to finding a thyroid specialist in Nottingham. Somebody who specialises in the thyroid gland only, looked at healthunlocked list and I cannot see anybody in Nottingham. Not looking for somebody you find when you see them deals in diabetes more than thyroid. Happy to go private. Looks like

Thyroid or menopause - which to sort first?
I've just checked the app, and the last of my blood tests are back. I definitely have started perimenopause and as per my last post I have high TPOab, high TSH (7.5 with high ref being 4.26), and lowish T4 (14.2 of a 12—22 range). I have symptoms that overlap the two conditions, but also symptoms that

Adenomyosis
Do you always need a hysterectomy with Adenomyosis? I've just been diagnosed,also with suspected Endo, ovaries 'stuck' together and 6 ovarian cysts. Does it always progress to get much worse and possible endo cancer? I've had thyroid cancer and seen there is a link with Adenomyosis and thyroid cancer

T3 Questionnaire
Thyroid UK, along with the other thyroid groups, had a meeting with the British Thyroid Association yesterday to discuss the joint consensus on liothyronine. The meeting went well and we think, in one or two instances, our concerns were accepted. We have some next steps, one of which is to collate

Anybody outside the range
Good afternoon everybody hope this makes sense Is there anybody out there that needs to run outside the ranges in order to feel good? At the moment my t4 and T3 levels are both at the top of the range with a fully suppressed tsh. I take t4 and T3, I maintain all the recommended supplements at or near
