Private blood tests.
I’m thinking hashis or
thyroiditis
. I started end of May with my last flare and only in the past week have I felt semi normal! Even my husband was getting worried... it was the worse I’ve ever been. Anyway I’m going to have private tests as doctor as GP on does TSH and T4.

Newbie
Hi everyone, newbie here, I have been diagnosed with toxic
thyroiditis
. I have no confidence in my GP as they missed it. I had to use what little savings I had to go private only to find out I needed a biopsy to check for cancer as I had 6 nodes on my thyroid.

Hashimoto's - med decrease and feeling awful
Hi, I am 35yo female with Hashimoto’s
thyroiditis
. I got labs done last week and my doc said I'm border line hyper. I think I most definitely am b/c I was STARVING every 45 minutes and eating constantly. I ended up gaining weight and I just wasn’t feeling good about myself.

I am still in what Drs call sub clinical Hashimotos
Thyroiditis
, still not being treated for it as my labs are all in range. My TSH goes between 3.39 to 6.03 currently it is 4.39. Same labs and ranges as per my previous blood results.

New on here and seeking advice
My GI specialist found that I was TPO antibody positive and my thyroid levels were off, and I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s
thyroiditis
. I am now on medication for that.

Recent Blood tests back, can anyone give any input/thoughts?
In addition to this, I 100% go by what presents in my feet (reflexology diagnosis), it's always been correct for me, so I just wanted to see if anyone here had any experience with slow onset hypothyroidism or even
thyroiditis
; and or any opinions on what i've said above.

Environmental exposure to pesticides and risk of thyroid diseases
Prevalence rates and risk of having thyroid diseases were significantly higher in areas with higher pesticide use, with a 49% greater risk for hypothyroidism, 45% for thyrotoxicosis, 20% for
thyroiditis
and 5% for goiter.

Adding carbimazole to levothyroxine increases triiodothyronine and improves outcome in patients with primary hypothyroidism
Older studies used large doses of both carbimazole and LT4 for Hashimoto's
thyroiditis
(HT), because Graves' disease (GD) and HT were considered as very closely related syndromes produced by thyroid autoimmunity.

Hypothyroidism, with some hyper symptoms
Diagnosed with hypothyroidism due to a period of
thyroiditis
. I've been on 100mg of thyroxine for just over 3 months, yet the symptoms still remain and have got worse at times. Skin red, and hot. Can't wear many layers. Really fatiqued and tired.

Postpartum thyroiditis or overdose?
I think I am having postpartum
thyroiditis
, as my TSH was always well controlled. Now very low, the dose is not mega only 100mcg to be overdosed. I need some advise how to achieve hypothyroid diagnosis and get the treatment as GP refused to continue Levo. Thanks

Treating both AFib and Thyroiditis
Recently, an old condition, Hashimoto's
Thyroiditis
returned after being resolved since 2006. The endocrinologist was hesitant to put me on Synthroid for fear of it aggravating my Afib. We are however trying me on a very low dose 12.5 mcg daily.

Gluten free diet and Hashimoto's - any advantage? Appears to be so.
This recent paper indicates gluten-free diet can be a useful aid for women with Hashimoto's:

Subacute thyroiditis experiences
I was recently diagnosed with subacute
thyroiditis
(de quervain) and I was wondering if anyone else here has any personal experience from it? How long did it take for you for the swelling and pain to go down? How long did it take until the palpitations were gone?

A Desperate New Mom Really Needs Your Help - Surgery or Radioactive or Carbimazole
Surprisingly, my FT3 FT4 dropped significantly and at this stage, the doctor suspected postpartum
thyroiditis
and told me to only take Propanolol. In April May and June, all my symptoms were greatly alleviated and FT3 FT4 kept dropping.

Help! FT3 below reference range despite increased dosage during pregnancy
Hi, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s
thyroiditis
in 2015 and has been taking Levothyroxine ever since. I started a gluten-free diet nearly 2 years ago. Before I found I was pregnant, my dosage was 75mcg/day.

CTA v MRA
The CTA is with iodine which is worrying as I have
thyroiditis
- the research I've done says the iodine can make
thyroiditis
worse. Is the CTA going to show anything more than the MRA?
