need guidance
Hello all, I'm new here. I was researching and came across this group. I'm asking for advice actually for my daughter. Here is the story. My daughter as a child was slightly overweight at age of puberty. When she was about 20, we went to a dr who ordered a thyroid US. Results multi nodules. No big concern

Result Help Please
My husband’s phlebotomist suggested there may be a problem with his thyroid. For now the only results we have are from TSH and T4. Can anyone help me interpret them please? Thanks!

What to do about lower than expected test results?
I’d value some advice about what to do regarding my most recent test results: TSH: 0.02 (0.27 - 4.2) FT3: 4.6 (3.1 - 6.8) 40.5 % FT4: 18 (12 - 22) 60% This was on 125mcg Levo five time a week; 100mcg twice a week and 10mcg of Lio a day. Test done per guidelines here. I reduced it from 125mcg Levo

Graves - blood test
I bit the bullet and have messaged the GP this morning and requested a blood test ... I'll wait and see if they'll allow it. I realised whilst crying AGAIN in the shower this morning that something was very wrong, as I was struggling to get up again this morning, unable to go for my usual walk and crying

My Endo Consultation Disaster…. No T3 for me.
Hello everyone, feeling like I want to scream into a pillow this morning! I had my private consultation yesterday and not only wouldn’t he prescribe me any T3, he is also going to write to my GP to reduce my Levo prescription!! So it was all a bit of a disaster really. I showed him my Blue Horizon

Nd Thyroid to thyroxine
Hi, I have Hashimoto's thyroid and Endoctrinologist has advised I move from NP thyroid to thyroxine. I was sent for Ultra sound by my doctor and had difficulty getting a follow up as he was on holidays for 2 months. I had to get online doc to refer me and only had report of ultrasound so not the scan

TRAB (TSH Receptor Antibodies)
Does anyone know where the cheapest private blood test for TSH Receptor Antibodies can be found? Most tests I see include TPO and TgAB but not TRAb or TSI Ab. Specifically looking for this test for regular monitoring after discussion with an endocrinologist.

Doseage Armour Thttpid
Plotting my most recent bloods into this % converter I’m thinking an increase in doseage would be a good idea. I take AT 1 grain am and 3/4 pm. Could I increase to 1 grain pm on alternate days? The Endos kick off due to suppressed TSH.

The thyroid gland under Notch control
An interesting snippet. Which is just as well because this is all we ordinary people can view! Do TFC1 and TFC2 get controlled by TSH exactly the same as each other? Or are the response profiles different? Or do different isoforms of TSH affect them differently? [i]
