Further blood tests
Hi I got more blood tests. The GP got it slightly wrong in that my hair is not coarse, it’s thin and falling out and I have significant slow pulse rate 40-50bpm. The GP was concerned about the low white cell and asked me to repeat and I got the results back yesterday and told - all normal but I don

AUGH!
I have been battling for about 10 years with numerous health issues and was finally diagnosed about 2 years ago with PA along with many of the accompanying issues. Explained most, if not all of my ills. But finding a doctor that is knowledgeable has eluded me. The absolute worst for me is the mental

Test Results and heart flutters
Hello everyone, I'm new on here. So glad to have found this site! I've posted before for a friend but now I'm looking for some help with my own thyroid medication. I've had hashimotos for 34 years (since I was 20yrs old) and been on levothyroxine for most of that time. Mostly I've been ok-ish. Just

Charlatan or science?
hi folks, I am awaiting diagnosis of Grave’s disease and during the last 3 months since my blood tests via the NHS and the waiting game to see an endocrinologist, I have been researching hyperthyroidism. The internet is FULL of people claiming there is a link between micro biome and leaky gut and Graves

Advice on Thyroid blood tests please?
hello everyone, could I get some input on my brother’s thyroid results please as I am attending his GP appointment with him. He has had three lots of thyroid testing since December 2023 and I think the first two results indicated Hypo and I believe that he should have been treated. However, a third

Is this too much Armour, too soon?
A month ago I had a consultation with a thyroidUK recommended doctor. She was fantastic and seemed to understand ALL the things I told her of my 4 year 'journey' with low thyroid hormones. She advised I start on 2 grains of armour (no titrating) and another consult and bloodwork is arranged for early

TSH/T3/T4/Vit B & D results
My previous Endo (private) retired last October and the new one (private) that I was suggested to see immediately reduced my Lio from 100 to 75 & the T3 from 20 to 10. Originally I had wanted to see an NHS Endo 3 years ago but none were available, hence the private route. My readings are T4 18.8 -

Tests to take prior to endo appointment
Hello I have a first appointment with an endocrinologist in 12 days. I've written asking what tests he would like me to take beforehand so as to save time and money at our first meeting. No reply, unfortunately. Clearly, I should be getting MSH, FT3, FT4 and TPO would be required. Any others?

T3 private source
I wonder is it possible to source T3 outside of UK as you can with NDT? Been on NDT a few years but this latest batch doesn’t seem to suit like it usually does. Please PM me if know of a reliable source. Thank you.

How does it go starting ndt?
Hi, thank you for taking the time to read this I'm getting married in three weeks. I'm currently on Levo but have always had fatigue taking it. I have got a prescription of NDT which I haven't started yet. I'm worried that starting ndt now will leave me worse off for the wedding. But I'm feeling completely

Thyroid test results - any thoughts please?
Hi everyone, I’ve had some repeat bloods taken last week. When I posted my last results from Feb this year, it was suggested that they indicated possible central/secondary hypothyroidism and low-ish B12. Can anyone advise me if these latest results are an improvement, or if I should still seek some
