narrow angles
Hi, first post on this forum, new to all of this. On a recent trip to the opticians, my wife (56) was referred to our local eye clinic with narrow drainage angles. Her ocular pressure is ok and there are no other abnormalities. The referral was quick and she had an appointment at the clinic within

Permanently damaged vision due to dry eyes?
I've had Limited Scleroderma for about 12 years. A year ago, I noticed that the vision in my left eye had become blurred. 3 opticians and 4 opthalmologists later (because I never see the same person twice, and every one starts at the beginning - what a ludicrous system), we have finally reached the

Strep A and thyroid
Could strep A cause problems with thyroid? I had massive problems with throat in the spring and was dismissed by GP, but because I couldn’t get rid of it for 2 months she eventually did a swab which came back positive for strep A. Has anyone had a similar experience?

thyroid lumps on chest
hello, HNY! I’ve posted before about thyroid goiter and large nodules. Gp and hospital in UK said everything is fine the lumps are benign and don’t worry. Thyroid function normal. Apart from antibodies in the 400s. I’m visiting in-laws in Turkey and have a bad chest infection (not Covid) Non smoker

medicheck results, what to do next?
I have posted my results before from Medichecks and I persuaded my youngest daughter to take the thyroid and vitamin test recently due to her symptoms of lethargy and the fact that not only I have hypothyroidism but also her Dad and older sister. Her iron plus Vit D were all low so she is now taking

wegovy
hi has anyone used wegovy. As a weight loss drug and found it to have a negative impact on PA ? I have some atrophic gastritis and get pain from time to time and I’m tempted to try the wegovy but don’t want to further irritate my guts or compound problems.

ANA & Connective Tissue Disorder results Graves
Hoping for some help. I got called into the doctors on Monday to discuss my latest bloods & my continued weight loss, I had already discussed my thyroid bloods with the endocrine nurse so was not really sure what is was about. My GP said that I had tested positive for ANA & connective tissue disease

T3 question
I’m currently on T3 only because of bad reaction with levothyroxine. I’ve been on Liothyronine 10mcg twice a day since 11 November. I haven’t been back to the doctors for a thyroid function test since October as I’ve read frequently that on T3 only they go more on symptoms than levels. I no longer have

GCA diagnostic dilemma
Thank you everyone who has helped so far. Last night I had a message from Rheumy saying I should go to the hospital for an emergency biopsy, with the headache and unusual severe temporal pain being the driver. He said that U/S was so ‘operator sensitive’ as to be unreliable in this ‘locality’. The
