How Off Would Blood Levels Be If Tested Without Fasting Beforehand?
Hiya. I would appreciate thoughts on this. This morning I had to go for an Inflammatory Marker Blood test for something which isn't related to thyroid issues. Unknown to me, my GP had requested a thyroid blood test anyway so I wasn't prepared by fasting from my meds the day before, and I took a multivitamin

Modafinil - thoughts
I am nervous in posting this. Please Admins jump in and close / moderate if needed etc. I think modafinil has helped me get through low thyroid. There did not seem to be much on the web about modafinil and thyroid. A post on reddit I think, says it used to be prescribed to support thyroid in US but

Feel like I'm going mad
At the end of January I ended up in hospital with low sodium levels and very dehydrated and then suffered 2 fits which resulted in a fractured spine. I was tested for thyroid disfunction and indicated hyperthyroidism though my aunt and grandmother had low.My hospital ultrasound was said by radiographer

Thyroid test when unwell
I have an annual GP thyroid test tomorrow and am feeling unwell. Feel sick and wiped out and sinus infection. Will this affect my results? It's just the normal GP test. Thanks

Support for long term thyroid condition
hi just wanted to ask here if anyone knows if the uk classes a thyroid condition as an auto immune disease that warrants support and recognition? Wondered if there’s support financially or work wise etc for having a thyroid condition I get the sense it’s palmed off as not a big deal, when it’s a life

Question for thyroidectomized patients: iodine processing issues?`
Hi, it seems to me that if I eat a bit too much seafood, I see some adverse issues. I do not have a thyroid, and wonder - since the thyroid is by far the organ with the highest need for iodine... how does iodine get processed in the body of someone who does not have a thyroid? If you also lack a thyroid

types of thyroid meds
I have been looking at types of thyroid medications, and wonder if anybody has used desiccated thyroid instead of levothyroxine? I will be seeing my endocrinologist tomorrow and suspect they will put me on medication. When I had my biopsy, the nurse told me she has good news and bad news, the good news
