Confirming blood tests needed to diagnose hyperthyroid (asking for my sister-in-law)
My sister-in-law told me that she recently was having trouble with excessive sweating... like, have to go home and change a drenched shirt kind of sweating. So as she said it in her words - She went to the general practitioner doctor, they did blood tests, and the numbers were low and so he's referring

New NHS Endocrinologist tomorrow for ‘Second Opinion’. Help with bloods please!
Hello! I finally have my ‘Second Opinion’ NHS Endocrinology Consultant tomorrow after it was put back a few weeks. The first Endocrinologist (who I’ve been sent to a few times now) utterly disagrees with me taking T3, and has made her displeasure clear in person and in her letters to my GP. I am

Genome-wide association study of thyroid-stimulating hormone highlights new genes, pathways and associations with thyroid disease
Over the years, we have seen a lot of discussion here about genes – things like whether individuals have particular DIO2 variants, haemochromatosis genes, etc. Where members can get tests run, how much they cost, and what to do with them! A critical issue is that genetic analysis is so new, so current

Dexa scan and low vitamin D
A GP at the surgery is insisting on a dexa scan as my TSH has been suppressed since I trialled T3, and she’s adamant I’m to reduce my levo dose (see my last two posts if more information needed). My question is, I had dire vitamin D levels of 22 and deficiency for I suspect at least 7 years whilst carrying

Need help with test results
I had some labs last week in preparation for a doctor's appointment tomorrow. I have PBC and have my liver enzymes tested regularly and asked my doctor to check my thyroid as well. I've had quite drastic hairloss and really feel it has to do with thyroid levels. I take T4 and T3 and my doctor is fixated

Early signs of PA
I've been giving some thought to how long I've had PA. I was diagnosed about 2 years ago. BUT, when i look back at old photos of myself, my skin colour changed to be quite yellowy (my mum says my dad and his mum both had the yellowy skin tone). This yellowy colour has faded out and I'm much more "white
