Looking for help on how to obtain T3 in the Uk
In 2012 I had a full
thyroidectomy
due to follicular cancer. My life has been gradually descending into hell since. Depression, anxiety, fatigue etc. I have always been socially awkward and these symptoms have amplified it massively.

Hobbies during lockdown
I knit little hats and angel dresses for the local hospital who were so good to me when I was a patient for 3 months after a thyroid storm in 2016, which resulted in me having a
thyroidectomy
....it’s a small gesture....🥰🤩

Can vitamin deficiencies suppress tsh?
I previously had hyperthyroidism and a hemi
thyroidectomy
to remove a 6cm toxic nodule in late 2018. Since then I have been increasingly unwell. So I've paid for finger prick blood tests with thriva. And my results are interesting.

Thyroidectomy 4 days ago. Guess now it's "Welcome to Your Life in the Completely Opposite Direction!"
Not to scare anyone, but ran into complications with the left RLN being traumatized during surgery, which led to unilateral larynx dysfunction, and the urgent need for an extra procedure post-
thyroidectomy
that was... well... if I never have to see that team again, it'll be too soon.

Thyroglobulin levels.
Got to have an ultrasound and pet scan on lungs so wondered if anyone else has had similar experience following total
thyroidectomy
for follicular cancer? Feeling a little deflated and scared what this might mean.

Do thyroid hormones replace what the thyroid produces itself?
In December my daughter had a hemi-
thyroidectomy
(cancer). The surgeon is very keen to totally suppress TSH as he says it will probably cause cancer to recur. She has declined for now so that she can see how the remaining thyroid is working. This was the whole point of not having TT.

High TSH at 17.66 with extremely low T4/T3
Thyroidectomy
in 2013 and Celiac Disease. Doctors continue lowering my dose from 100 to 88 and most recently to 75 for 6 months. New Dr. put me on Compounded Slow Release T4/T3 (1grain).

How did you all figure out if you need more T4 or more T3?
These are the best labs I’ve had since my
thyroidectomy
14 months ago. Still feel like garbage. I feel the same as when my tsh was 7. FT4 : 1.74 (0.78-2.19) FT3: 2.56 (2.77-5.27) TSH: 0.47 (0.47-4.68) Endo advises 100/112 + 5 T3.

Has anyone heard if this?
I was looking up
thyroidectomy
and arthritis and came across this science article above, I found it interesting. I do take at least one Advil or Advil Dual Action everyday and on bad days at least 2 maybe 3 a day.

Suggestions for suitable careers for thyroidectomy patients?
I wondered if there were others out there who have had a
thyroidectomy
and experience similar issues to myself? How does this affect your job? Any potential suggestions? Thank you ☺️

Blood results.
Also TSH seems higher than usual as mine is usually more suppressed due to
thyroidectomy
. I have noticed it is creeping up along with the thyroglobulin ( that result is not back yet). August 29 TSH 0.398 (0.27-4.20). FT3 3.3.

Throid S supply any alternatives to take
I had a partial
thyroidectomy
4 years ago and my GP and various consultants refused to medicate me even though my bloods were showing I was increasingly hypo - in desperation I turned to self research and advice from kind people like those on this site which led me to Thyroid S and my health came back

Iodine in end stage Hashimoto´s?
The doctor said that since the radiologist´s report shows I have no thyroid left, I should be compared to someone having had a total
thyroidectomy
, and the latter category needs life-long iodine replacement. i would really appreciate input from others as I am not willing to take any supplement that I

Results help please
Hi all I have several previous posts about my thyroid- I feel I’ve had thyroid symptoms for years then had to have a hemi-
thyroidectomy
in Feb 20 due to multi-nodular goitre. I started Levo shortly afterwards when my symptoms started increasing and my TSH increased to over 6.

Questions around thyroxine/life after total thyroidectomy, 4 days post-op !
. :') I am a 17 year old girl who is 4 days post-op after a total
thyroidectomy
and I have been on thyroxine for two of those four days. I stop eating at 8pm and have been taking it at 10pm every night.
