Iodine when hypo?
Hello I would like to take some iodine, selenium and molybdenum to help with my b2 and b12. But I am hypo on 50/75mcg levo with antibodies 950 (autoimmune thyroid). Just wanting to ask is it safe to take iodine in this case (just the recommended daily amount)? I find it all very confusing

Getting off levo is possible. My experience.
I stopped taking levothyroxine in May after weaning off it for a year and a half. For those that are interested in what happens when you wean off levo - it takes about a month/month and a half for the body to adjust to not having the external hormones coming in. For me, one of the surprising changes

Test results, following up from a month ago
Hello. I posted on here a month ago asking for advice before an endo appointment. I was feeling very poorly - a lot of joint pain, brain fog, falling over, dizzy, ears ringing etc. Your advice was really helpful, thank you. I ended up having levothyroxine increased from 50 to 75mcg, liothyrinine

Anyone gets sick from taking vitamins/minerals?
Hello. I know many will find this question silly, but this is something I have observed for over 10 years now. Its almost like I'm allergic to vitamins. Whether from a supplement, or from fruits, the effect is the same. Anytime I eat fruit for a period of several days (any fresh fruit, no specific fruit

Hyperthyroidism - treatment sequence?
Hi guys I've been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and referred to see a consultant, which I'm researching now. I can see from my limited research that there are approximately 2 or 3 different treatment options, including some medication, radiates iodine and finally surgery. I'm wondering if all

Allergy to iodine ..why now!?
After my eye injections in August I had an allergic reaction I’ve never had before. With 10 minutes of leaving hospital my nose started streaming ...which I thought may be hay fever but when I got home one eye was swollen and badly bloodshot. Had a little sleep and when I woke my cheeks were red and

Surgery to the spine for mets
I have mets to my spine in the cervical and thoracic regions and have had the maximum radiation allowed to that area. It seems there is new activity in the area and the Docs are discussing surgery to try and eliminate some of the spinal compression causing pain and numbness. Has anyone undergone surgery

Diet for hashis
Hashis. Just got results back of 1.8 TSH from NHS so they have kept my Levo at 75mg. I take one and a half 50mg as the 25mg Veto gave me a headache. Have asked for medical records to put on here but it’s taking an age to get them. After which I’ll pay to get some private tests done and make sure T3

MRI scan and iodine dye.....is it a problem for Hashi sufferers ?
I’m hoping someone on here can advise. I’m booked in for an MRI scan as part of an investigation into a trapped nerve in my neck. It’s all a bit scary but as I live in France it’s also an unfamiliar process (not that I’ve done it before). From what I can see, they inject a dye into intravenously before

Iodine - can't find link to recent article
Not long ago someone posted a link to an article suggesting that iodine is not as bad as we have been led to believe. I meant to read it at the time, but didn't and now I can't find it. Does anyone remember this and can give me a link to it? This time I'll bookmark it and read it! My naturopath adviser

Was RAI necessary?
I know it is possible to have both Graves and Hashi's. My recurrent bouts of hyperthyroidism requiring 3 years of continuous carbimazole treatment made it look like I just had Graves. Since having several private blood tests I notice my Tg antibodies are raised and my TPO are very high. Would the Hashi's

Medicheck blood test results
I’ve just received these results, I had a private test as my endocrinology nurse informed me that consultant would be reluctant to order tests for vitamin level. I’m awaiting a response from my GP, any input from the members would be very welcome. hs-CRP 3.30 <5.0 Ferritin 300.0

Auximen scan shows significant new cancerous activity and last post about my brother
Unfortunately, this is the last post about my brother. He passed away on October 6. My brother showed great fortitude against very long odds, and his courage and strength of spirit during this brutal battle was inspirational. I am heartbroken to lose him, but I know the cliché that he is finally at peace
