Update after Endo
Good morning, I'm just writing this as an update to anyone who may be interested in my seemingly-odd case... My Endo appointment went well. (Or so I thought but if you're learning from this post, please read the comments!) She believes I have Graves disease, despite the antibodies indicating Hashimotos

liver Mets, Pluvicto failed
diagnosed 2021, spread to distant lymph nodes. Castrate resistant within 6 months. Had platinum based chemo. Stabilized for bit. 4 Pluvicto treatments. PSA went from 4 to 70. Latest scans show new mets to liver. Genetic testing shows ATM mutation. Where to go from here?

Is it worth doingan econsult Monday?
The story... Back on March my GP tested my tsh (as part of cfs testing) and it was 1.88. Start of April I caught a virus and then the week after onwards my symptoms gradually were increasing and I missed a few days of work. April 19 (I think it was) I got my tsh, t3 and t4 done via Medichecks.

Lactose intolerant
I am changing from Armour Thyroid to synthetic T4 and T3, due to cost and that a local Endo has agreed to this on the NHS. However I’m super sensitive to lactose and the hospital pharmacy are dithering about finding lactose free options. Does anyone know which brands are lactose free please?

some not great news/ still a lot unknown
I’ve posted before about my first introductions to prostate cancer: primarily significantly increased PSA yr to yr (3 to 6+). Did the EXODX urine test and score came back 25.9 out of 100 (15.9 being the cut off to keep from proceeding with biopsy, so I figured I’d at least need to do that. ) Finally

Muscle pain relief through thyroid meds
I have a torn cartilage and osteoarthritis in my left hip. At night I have pain in my hip and back but after I take my T4 and T3 tablets the pain dissipates. Has anyone else experienced this? Or have any ideas about the mechanisms involved? Thanks in advance.

Am I over medicated?
My Free T4 always comes up low. I understand from this grp that this means I am over medicated. I do not feel over medicated, but am I doing myself long term damage? I currently take 45mgs of NDT & an extra 12.5mcgs of T3. (In one dose) each day. (& supplements) Thanks in advance.

2 levothyroxine questions
1. The recommended dose for levothyroxine is 1.6mcg /kg of body weight. Are most thyroid patients on this dose? 2. If I wanted to switch from T4/T3 combination to only T4 medication to check if my conversion has improved after making healthy changes for a year, how long would I have to be on T4 only
