Symptoms/side effects of Carbimazole? Blood blisters/smell/fatigue.
I’ve been on the same dose of the Carbimazole for 12 months now but my levels seem to dip and level out at each blood test and I’m thankfully awaiting a total
thyroidectomy
. I just wondered if these hideous effects are caused by the Carbimazole or a dodgy thyroid? Or both!

Advice please....basal temperature 34.8c
I had
thyroidectomy
1992 been on levothyroxine since then. Became really unwell 2019. Endo reduced dose from 100mcg to 75mcg February 2020 after reviewing my case whereby he claimed "You have been overprescribed thyroxine for many years" He went on to add ..... you are burnt out.

Response I received from Endos Nurse
I have always been on Synthyroid non-generic since my
thyroidectomy
in 2016 and my endo ordered me the Generic version and Im reluctant to take for fear of having issues again. Would this response irritate you?

Increase Levo or not?
Hi all, Further to my recent posts, following on from hemi-
thyroidectomy
, I’ve now been on 75mg Levo for 7 weeks. These are my results today. I think I’m feeling a bit better, although I have psoriatic arthritis so it’s a bit difficult to tell in terms of fatigue etc- I do still have symptoms.

Dormant(?) TED and Surgery
Besides not recognising my body much anymore since my
thyroidectomy
, my eyes have become a big insecurity as well. When I was hyper, I ended up with moderate/severe thyroid eye disease which left my eyes bulgy and constantly bloodshot.

Late Update with my blood results - need help
Also take 600mg Calcium a day I had thyroid cancer in 2015, total
thyroidectomy
followed by Radioactive Iodine. What is the formula for Thyroxine? I’m only small 154cm and usually 58kg I’m a bit scared to play around with my meds but would appreciate some advice please.

Moved and now being denied T3
Morning everyone Finally after 4 years post total
thyroidectomy
I got my levels ‘optimal’ and I managed to get T3 prescribed on the NHS. I know both of those things are quite a feat!

Follicular thyroid cancer
After noticing they had grown I’ve had further investigations and then a partial
thyroidectomy
. I have been told I have follicular cancer and now need to have the rest removed and potentially nuclear iodine. My tumour was encapsulated in thyroid but 2.8 com.

Any advice? Can’t take carbimazole
They’re offering total
thyroidectomy
. Radioactive iodine treatment is not currently available due to Covid restrictions but might become so soon. I have a 4 year old, so that comes with complications in itself.

Why do you need less thyroxine replacement as you get older?
Thyroxine replacement medications I had thyroid cancer when I was 18 40 years ago and had a total
thyroidectomy
As I’ve got older the amount of replacement thyroxine has been reduced Can anyone explain why? I’ve never really found out
