advice re thyroid antibodies
Hi. I have Hashimoto’s and my antibodies remain high, can anyone advise on the adverse affect this might have on me and how I might reduce them. Thyroglubin are 4000.0 from range 0.0-115.0 with Peroxidase 216.0 from range 0.0-34.0 At last blood test my Free T4 was 7.7 range 7.0-17.0 and TSH 4.85 range

Dr’s appointment this morning to discuss dose increase for my daughter, ‘urgent’ help required 🙏
Good morning everyone, My daughter (17, nearly 18) was diagnosed with hypothyroidism is the summer, initially prescribed 25mcg which was obviously inadequate so she requested dose increase which was granted. She’s been on 50mcg since beginning of September, she initially felt an improvement in symptoms

Not Fibromyalgia: Not CFS
I haven't visited here for some time. Following major surgery for head and neck cancer I developed terrible fatigue which included a ton of symptoms. Covid was rife and no appointments were possible with a GP. Not much better now either. I was in a real state both physically and mentally so emailed

Advice please. I started Levo about 6 weeks ago prescribed 25micrograms. On advice here I’ve been taking 50 instead. My last bloods are below and my tsh is now slightly higher than it was as previous test. A dr commented that I am on the correct medication (at 25 micrograms) but I thought I was meant

I’m losing hair, shaking inside, cold all the time, weight loss. I’m on HRT. I had iron deficient anaemia in 2020. Feel like I’m going

Quality of life questionnaire for hypothyroid?
Hi there, I've literally been diagnosed with hypothyroidism a week ago and started levothyroxine today, and feeling quite irritated really as it's clear to me now I've obviously had this a long time. TSH is 14.7 which doesn't seem great from what I am reading. What eventually got it diagnosed was me
