Wife passing from decompensated cirrhosis complications
My wife and I were moderate drinkers for many years. My wife, like many people, had a phobia of going to the doctors and had not had an annual check up for 26 years! She was incredibly healthy. Hardly ever had a sniffle and on no meds. I am a clinical pharmacist and am well aware of signs of liver

why wouldn't the consultant order a scan of a goiter ( I have confirmed Graves Disease?)
I have a recently confirmed Graves Disease. And also a goiter. Anyone any insight please as to why the medics won't do a scan of the goiter? When I asked they said it's because the treatment plan is the same regardless in first instance - ie carbimazole - in hope that stops growth/ balances the

I think I’ve messed up!
Started to feel not so great. Was taking 2 grains of NDT and 25mcg T3( background RAI therapy around 10 yrs ago) I went to the doctors who took bloods. Results as detailed. I am not sure why my results are so low. I have been on the same dosage for a long time- blood results were always good! Has NDT

14 Studies from the 1950s about T3-Only for All Sorts of Chronic Issues
These studies used T3 to benefit everything from mental issues, to gastrointestinal problems, to infertility, to poor performance in school. One study even used T3 with one-year-olds. Pretty remarkable results. I've included links for each study. - Tittle (1956). Effects of 3,5,3’ l-triiodothyronine

Lone Paroxysmal AF or Hypothyroid Symptom?

#2 Update: Adrenal Testing
This afternoon (12.45) I had the blood draw for: Adrenal auto-antibodies, Aldosterone, Renin, Potassium & Sodium. I've also had a short Synacthen test. Stop The Thyroid Madness (For better, for worse) insist that salt is restricted the day before Aldosterone testing and that the arm is held at a perpendicular

Can iodine affect thyroid medication test result numbers?
Hi all few days ago I was prescribed a medication for atrial fibrillation, namely Amiodarone. It's contains iodine and if I had a thyroid which I don't my thyroid would have to be monitored regularly on this medication.So by having no thyroid I do not need to have regular thyroid checks. But I was wondering

#1: The Start
Following the example of Clarebear I've decided to document my thyroid-adrenal journey on here in hopes it'll keep me accountable, and also may serve some after me. After a long, complicated history of no diagnosis, followed by lithium treatment, then prolonged time spent on T4 with no improvement,

potassium level
I recently had bloodwork done. My sodium is at very bottom of range.( 135) it always has been. My potassium is 3.7 with a range of 3.5-5.5. I have tended to be around 4 or a tad higher. A year ago I was 3.8. I have been injecting every 3 weeks for a year and a half. Do I need more potassium? I know it

Apologies -Loperamide Liquid Oral solution Discontinued
My post should have said Loperamide Liquid Oral Solution has been discontinued. I have tried taking half of an instant melt Imodium which wasn’t very successful so I will try to get tablets (as opposed to capsules ) and break up! Not sure why the liquid has been discontinued!

I was treated 25 yrs ago for overactive thyroid received RAI which made me hypothyroid and prescribed 100 mcg of thyroxine. I have never felt better with any brand or quantity of Levothyroxine and have given up with NHS doctors with regard to endocrinology. I have just completed reading a new book

Subclinical thyroid disease for 5 yrs
My thyroid has caused me few obvious problems in that time, other than varying T3 results.Before Xmas, 2022 I had a radionuclear scan which diagnosed toxic nodular goitre. I returned in January '23 to discuss what Endo want to do. Apparently, my choices are RAI or take Carbimazole. The dose was low,

IBS D
Hi, I’ve suffered with mixed ibs for 7 years but having a really bad flare up last few months of ibs D. So I’ve been taking Imodium for 2 days a week while I’m at work, which has helped to slow it down. But about 5 days after I’ve had the Imodium I have explosive diarrhoea! Is that because the Imodium

Salt - serum sodium
I have just had my two monthly blood test. Whilst my ESR and CRP are within the normal range my serum sodium is 130mmol/L. (133 - 146.00mmol/L). It has been like this for the past year or so and everyone has ignored it 'til now. I am not one for pills unless I really need them like prednisolone. Can

Overactive thyroid? Does reducing iodine intake in your diet help? It has for me so far.
I was diagnosed with an overactive thyroid / Graves Disease in 2015. Between 2016 and 2021 I was on "block & replace" treatment - 40mg of carbimazole daily along with 150mcg of levothyroxine. My thyroid had stabilised by 2021, after which point I was taken off all medication. I relapsed with an overactive
