Steroid Inhalers and Thyroid levels
I am undergoing tests for breathlessness. Consultant suspects it is non allergic late onset asthma. I have been using Fostair 200/6 for about 3 weeks which thankfully has improved symptoms. However a recent thyroid blood test gave a very high reading for T4 levels. Do steroid inhalers affect your

Thyroid Peroxidase antibodies
Thyroid peroxidase is an enzyme which is produced in the thyroid gland and is important for converting T4 to the biologically active T3. If I produce antibodies to thyroid peroxidase I understand this indicates that the body's immune system is attacking the thyroid gland and impairing its function.

Hypothyroidism and pregnant
I stopped levothyroxine because I was having terrible insomnia and restlessnees, head aces and feeling exhausted during the day, I then started on armour thyroid but it hasn't helped my blood levels. My thyroid is still low. And it's been low most of my pregnancy because I've been on armour a while,

Endo is recommending radioactive iodine
At my last endocrinology appointment, it was strongly suggested I have radioactive iodine therapy. I'm not terribly keen, for reasons that many of you here have pointed out. I still don't know for sure that I have Graves'. The endo didn't think it mattered if it was Graves' or not, she would still recommend

How do I read a thyroid blood result?
TSH = 215 Free T4 = 16 What does this tell me? GP says it is satisfactory. What are the ranges for healthy thyroid results please?

Bizarre Thyroid Quote from 1941
We regularly despair at science and medicine seemingly missing so much about thyroid physiology and processes. However, every so often, we see something so extraordinarily odd and bizarre, we actually seem to have made huge progress. This starts fairly sensibly. Then goes downhill. Fast. And remember

Can you come off Thyroxine permanently?
Hi everyone I have asked this question before but here i am again!I have been on Thyroxine for around 8yrs due to Interferon causing my thyroid to become very overactive at first then becoming underactive! The question i would like to ask is i have read that if your thyroid numbers are normal

Update on my thyroid medication 🤦♀️
Hi everyone ❤️ I posted some weeks ago about my appointment with an endocrinologist on Dec 27th, who just stopped my T3 prescription and put me back on T4 levothyroxin to which in her own report she stated... This lady is intolorent to both T4 and T3, therefore I recommend she goes back on T4 levothyroxin

Sudden change to low thyroid levels without dose change - confused!
Hello, my husband has been on T4/T3 combo for about a year and although he’s probably not completely optimised, he had some good weeks and some bad weeks. Sadly though, he has had some consistently bad weeks lately and currently feels incredibly depressed (I am very worried). He checked his thyroid levels

Thyroid Hormones and Cancer Video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcFRyPr2-Hw This is a very techinical video but fascinating. I would just go with the flow and not worry about all the scientific detail. Paul Davis is a remarkable doctor. Here is some information which may help: - Thyroid hormone (T3) acts on thyroid hormone receptors

Total thyroidectomy
I had a TT in Aug 21 for hashimotos which went to Graves’ disease and large multi modular goitre. Since surgery I was on 150mcg thyroxine which was reduced after 6 weeks to 125mcg and have been on that dose since . My last bloods showed that I was now possibly being over medicated but Gp said they would
