Goitre question
Hi folks... I'm doing well (in summary no TRAbs, T4/T3 in range and TSH rising ...TED subsiding after a very difficult 6 months and just have one Retinal issue to resolve, on 5mg Carbmizole) however endo at the last appt said I had a goitre. I had my scan today and they said it was nodular and asymmetric

Finally treatment!! Central hypothyroidism recognition
Finally, after all these years of missed opportunities to diagnose thyroid dysfunction I have been prescribed Levothyroxine for the first time. I walked away from the GP appointment with a sense of disbelief. It's been a battle (as it surely has for many others on this forum). My GP has prescribed despite

Need for less thyroid hormone replacement in summer
Hello everyone, Just a general question as to whether any of you find that you need less thyroid hormone in the summer months? I’ve been well on a dose of combination t4/t3 for about 8 months now- having found my sweet spot last October. However over the past couple of weeks I’ve been experiencing

Advise on TSH and FT4 results
Hi All, Last week, I had a liver fibroscan, and the nurse informed me I had no scarring. However, he noted that there is a lot of fat (CAP score 307). The nurse took some blood samples, including TSH and free T4, as well as vitamin D, iron, transferrin, transferrin saturation, and ferritin. I already

Sub-clinical Hyperthyroidism
Hi everyone - the thyroid can be a mean beast! And the endocrine system is complicated. I was diagnosed in 2017 (not Graves) and after a year under the endo my carbimazole dose was fixed at 5mg and 10mg on alternate days. I was discharged to GP care. After that, every 6 month blood test showed TSH and

Hi you lovely lot I don’t post much but really appreciate the knowledge and expertise shown on this site. I read all posts and research as much as I possibly can to manage my condition.

help with latest results please
I’ve just had my results back, I’m due to see my dr next week and would like to have some understanding of them. For reference I have Hashimotos, am gluten and dairy free, my vitamins and iron are ok after a long time working on them. I’m on 2 grains of Armour and have been on this dose for 6 weeks.

3 months post-partum - advice on these results?
I was diagnosed with hypo right before I found out I was pregnant last August. Levo was awful for me, so I switched to NDT and have done well on it. Throughout pregnancy, my TSH was optimal and T3 was good too but T4 was difficult to get optimal. I'm on 180mcg of NDT, split 90/90 morning and night

? T3 and TSH
So, I've written before, and I started taking only T3. At about 100-125mcg per day all at once in the morning (bc my principal concern is my immune system. Also energy, etc). I went to the ER the other day bc of a bad reaction to Paxlovid, I had presumed covid (multiple close contacts, ie, my kids

Blood test results
Hi,I started levothyroxine (25mcg) approx 6 weeks ago after diagnosis. Bloods retested today and TSH is 5.1. Previous results were 7 and 8.I have an appointment with the GP this week and presume they will want to increase the dose. Pathology investigation report on the blood test suggests undertreatment
