help :(
I have had symptoms of a UTI since 31st October. I had Nitrofuration twice at the start of all this and things started to settle until I had a bath. I was then given 7 days of trimethoprim- I felt no real difference with this. Dipstick tests never really show infection so 3 urines have been sent to lab

GCA or Dry eye pain
Yesterday was the first day both my eyes hurt. I have been having dry eyes and drops are not doing too much. The pain in both eyes feel like pressure or strain pain. I am worried not knowing if it’s just dry eyes or my GCA acting up. Currently taking 10 mg if prednisone since the last GCA temple pain

BTF Webinar on Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs)
EDCs are perhaps the most important topic in endocrinology today but rarely discussed. This BTF webinar will presumably be an introduction to the subject https://www.btf-thyroid.org/Event/meet-the-thyroid-experts-webinar-endocrine-disrupting-chemicals-and-how-they-can-affect-your-thyroid-health .

Reaction
I speed from Armour Thyroid (1 grain am 3/4 pm ) last Monday to 50 mcg Levo and 10mcg Liothyronibe am and another 10 mcg pm. Bloods done Tuesday am (last dose T4 24 hrs before and split T3 am/3:00 pm and 7:30 pm). Only water before test at 7:30 am. Results below. I’m wondering how quickly the change

Possible relapse, trouble seeing Rheumatologist.
Hi, I have not posted in quite some time. Read other's mostly, and since I have been in remission for 7-8 years I have not had much I could add to conversation. I was diagnosed with GPA in 2015. Put on pred and mycophenolate initially, then two rounds of rituximab. I have been med free since 2016

Iodine supplement
I would be interested to know if anybody has taken an iodine supplement to support thyroid functon and have they noticed any benefits? I've been advised that it helps to eliminate harmful bromine and fluoride stored in the thyroid gland?

In July I discussed future conception with a GP who told me that i would be fine coming off the pill and ignored my endo diagnosis because i had it done privately.. I came off

cortisol/underactive thyroid
Out of interest, if your cortisol is high in the morning, would taking your levothyroxine in the morning make you feel even more stressed/twitchy?

Reactive and exercise-induced hypoclycaemia

A good nights sleep
I think every body will agree that whenever we first get tinnitus fear and terror runs through our veins and the one thing it effects is our sleep, i remember my first few months and especially the first few weeks i was so scared i would keep getting out of bed, walking round going in to the garden ,

Underactive thyroid
Hi, my thyroid levels have been up and down recently. I've been on 125mcg and felt fine until the GP decided, after a blood test, to lower the dose. The dosage I need isn't available so I'm now on 100mcg for 5 days and then 112mcg for 2 days. Is this an ok thing to do? Thanks.

Fostair & dry mouth
Just started Fostair nextinhaler this week whilst in hospital for acute severe asthma. Have a very dry mouth & angular stomatitis (cracks in corner of mouth). Does anyone else have the same issues?
