Which medicine is messing with my thyroid med uptake
Might anyone be able to suggest which of my other meds has affected my thyroid med uptake (100mcg thyroxine and 2x5mcg t3)? I was prescribed digoxin, furosemide and bisoprolol after having open heart surgery 3 mths ago to resolve some anatomical defects. Uptil that point thyroid levels were stable

Carbimazole
Hi my daughter was diagnosed with graves, doctor put her on carbimazole. She started taking carbimazole and after a few months I can hardly recognise her Her eyes look unfocused and dull and her entire face seems to have sagged drastically. She never longer resembles the happy girl with bright shining

Small thyroid gland question......
What does it mean if your Free Thyroxine is low (10.8 pmol/L - 12 - 22 R ) and your Thyroid is small ? My Dr is telling me he is unable to except my recent private blood tests which is annoying as I sent bloods of to MediChecks only this morning to check my Thyroid Antibodies which are normally

thyroid results
I have just received my recent thyroid results from a blood test 13 months ago it was 1.3 and now 2.6 have been taking 50 mg of Levothyroxine been on this dosage for the last 10 years. I asked my Gp if l needed to increase the dosage and he advised it’s still in the normal range.

thanks and appreciation this Thyroid Awareness Week
Was thinking about doing a post whilst trying to sleep last night. Then got up to lovely replies to my query yesterday. Just wanted to say thank you and show huge appreciation to everyone - the admins, all who post and comment. I think of you all as my thyroid tribe, we are unlikely to meet but I know

How to Stop Medication
Hello, I am desparately wanting to come off my thyroid medication, been on it too long, in my view, but no dr will help me. I am very keen to try to heal my thyroid condition (if I actually have one) with a good diet or change of diet. I believe it is possible, but the medical profession seem to want

World Thyroid Day
Dear Thyroid People, just wondering if the group as a whole is taking any action to promote the current woeful situation of treatment? Sorry if I’ve already missed a thread on this.

Autoimmune condition
Hi everyone. The results from my ANA and ENA came back with a broad diagnosis of connective tissue disease. They've ruled out lupus. This plus the thyroid stuff is going to be fun to deal with 😅. The Coeliac disease test was inconclusive because my GP forgot to advise me to have bread for at least 4

parathyroid
Do any of you have problems with your parathyroid glands? My calcium was slightly over range and PTH was 7.4 just over the higher end of range(7.2) I was wondering if there’s a connection with thyroid problems and parathyroid..I have graves.

Graves test results
Here’s the latest test results, apparently I am testing negative for the graves antibodies, I don’t fully understand what it all means and would really appreciate any advice.

Graves’ disease 3 years down the line
After 2 years on medication for Graves’ disease I finally have the letter from endocrinologist saying I’m to stop taking block and replace, Really nervous about it which is ridiculous because I didn’t want to rely on medication in the first place and now I’m worried about stopping. I just wondered
