Suppressed Thyroid ore unable Thyroid plus T3 problem
As this is my first post I will try and give short history as it is important. At the age of 17 (I am now 74) I was diagnosed with Hypoactive thyroid which strangely made me put on weight and also made one of eyes bulge. I was given iodine in tablet form and eventually things went back to normal .

B12 and electrolyte imbalance
Hi folks I have been struggling with low sodium due to laxative use, (I have severe IBS). In the process of trying to correct the sodium I changed meds to Linzess and took sodium. I think that caused an electrolyte imbalance. Now I am feeling really bad with weak legs, bad vision problems, shortness

Sodium benzoate in soft drinks?
Hi everyone. I hope you are doing ok in this difficult time. I wanted to know if anyone has ever had a reaction to sodium benzoate (also known as E211), which is a preservative found in a lot of processed foods. Sometimes I feel that my throat/chest is a bit irritated when I drink Diet Coke but then

Information about spinal cord compression.
Has anyone experienced a spinal cord compression or fracture? Can you share your experiences. Has anyone experienced what it means to prevent one. We know that getting an MRI to show the urgency of treatment is one thing and then the mention of surgery. We don't know what that means. Who handles this

Just started 100mg levothyroxine how long until symptoms improve?
I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease 4 years ago and had radioactive iodine treatment last October. Since then my bloods last week confirmed I’ve gone severely underactive which explains why I’ve felt so terrible recently. Really suffering with constipation, issues sleeping, anxiety, depression, muscle

Stopping thyroxine
Sorry can’t seem to reply to anyone. Yes it is a radioactive iodine scan to see what is going on. It is normal practice to stop meds for 4 weeks for best results
