I’ve been on thyroxine for 50 years and for last 30 years reasonable stable on 1.25 a day. I do have a medichecks test every year. I don’t have high antibodies . A few years ago I was waking in the night chocking and mri showed my thyroid gland had all but disappeared, with a small part of what was left

Taking water with thyroxine tablet
Do I need to always take my thyroxine tablet with a full glass of water for it to absorbed correctly? Thank you to any advice that anyone may have.

T4 how long it lasts in the body 🤔
Hi everyone ❤️ Quick question, I started on T4 vencamil 12 mg on Monday afternoon (8th April) took Tuesday, Wednesday, dose 12mg then found out gp botched the thyroid bloods 😡 I posted the whole saga, so not going to get into that. So how long will these 3 days of T4 12mg take to leave my system?

Teva thyroxine nightmare
Recently my surgery's pharmacy cannot provide Mercury brand thyroxine and they are changing it to Teva which I had bad pains from it in the past! I would like to get another brand and have no idea where? It's stressing me out at the moment any help will be much appreciated. Thank you

can low Thyroid cause crashes
Hi all, hope others can shed some light please. As per my previous posts, I have started T4 50mg 23rd Feb, my next apt is 8th May. I have noticed some positive changes, feet little warmer, reg bowel movements and little less hyper feelings. However I still sweat awfully every morning, a daily headache

Advice on which Blue Horizon test to take
I have recently posted for advice on whether I need to go back on thyroxine after a year's break. The consensus seemed to be 'yes'. I am thinking of ordering a Blue Horizon Premium Gold test kit but it lists this package as 14 tests. I only just wanted the one test at the moment to see where things

Hi. Hope you all well. Does anyone have experience coming off levothyroxin 50mg? I had my left thyroid removed 10 years ago. My right thyroid producing too much thyroxine and making me very ill. Many thanks.

Change of plan
I was planning on going out at 13.30pm but my wife informed me of another appointment, so it was off in the rain for my first Stepping Stone run, the run was quite easy until the last 5 minuets when I had to pick up the pace, perspiration was worst that the rain, but I did it without having to stop.

GP agreed I should stop but meanwhile due to long waiting list times in this area suggested I pay to see an endo who will

Generic Teriflunomide
Hi, I’ve been taking Aubagio for almost 6 years now and had been very pleased with the medication. No new plaques or lesions issues were found on my MRIs and I hadn’t noticed any side effects which were caused by the medication. Taking Aubagio was a great improvement over Avonex for me as I had pretty

Hyperthyroidism and Pegasys
Hi everyone, I have been on Pegasys for my ET for about 5 months and have now found out I have very low TSG levels and too high t4, i.e. hyperthyroidism. Has anyone else experienced thyroid problems and did they have to come off IFN? Thanks!
