Symptoms v Tests Part 1 - what they revealed to me and failed to reveal when taken at face value...
I did an autoimmune panel to see where my Abs were at anti-TPO Abs = 347 >60 (autoimmune
thyroiditis
) anti-TG Abs = negative anti parietal cell Abs = positive (pernicious anaemia) Around this time I was programming symptom checkers for a health business.

First prescription of Levothyroxin. Is 3 months too long to wait to go back for blood test for TSH levels when trying to conceive?
I also requested them to test for antibodies as my Mother and aunts all have Hashimotos
Thyroiditis
. but again I do not think my GP knew what I was meaning maybe as there did not seem to be any info about them on the test results?

Thanks for all the info and support I now have a referral to an endocrinologist and my dose increased
I still have no blood testing for FT3 or anti-bodies (lab won't do it even though I've had a scan confirming
thyroiditis
). But at least things are moving forward (even of my symptoms aren't quite yet). Thanks.

What do I need to ask/request my GP to do now I know I am 'borderline' hypothyroid?
My mother and her four sisters all have Hashimotos
Thyroiditis
and my grandmother had myxoedema so, even though I am not (as far as I know) displaying any sympomts I thought I would get checked just to be safe!

How do I convince doctor to do something about my thyroid problem? What should I be asking her to do?
Had a scan this week where that doctor said had clear signs of
thyroiditis
- nodules, thyroid burnt out is what she said. But GP blood tests show TSH within range 1.2 (0.34-5.5), no FT4 this time, last time was 9.5 (7.5-19.0). Waiting for anti-body test results.

Post-partum hypothyroidism - would I need to come off meds to know if it's reversible?
It was never even suggested to me 6 years ago that my post-partum
thyroiditis
resulting in hypothyroidism might resolve itself. I was plonked on thyroxine - 100mcg and there I stayed. Would I know if it had a chance of resolving, or would I need to come off the meds completely to find out?

The Association Between Severity of Vitamin D Deficiency and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.
These findings may suggest a potential role of 25OHD in development of Hashimoto's
thyroiditis
and/or its progression to hypothyroidism.

What is the general feeling on here about thyroxine?
I've had Hashimotos
Thyroiditis
for many years and my GP put me on Thyroxine which I only take every other day because it makes me feel hyper otherwise. What is the general feeling about Thyroxine?

Helicobacter Pylori - are there many PBCers diagnosed with this too?
Some studies associated several autoimmune conditions (among which rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's, autoimmune
thyroiditis
) with the presence of H. pylori. Which, in its turn, is associated with a high degree of inflammatory activity in the body and a low level of antioxidant factors.

Does anyone know Dermatitis herpetiformis?
Hi, i have Hashimotos
thyroiditis
which was diagnosed in Feb. I read the link between antibodies and food intolerances so came off gluten and dairy. I had a coeliac test at the same time as my thyroid test but it came back negative but thought i had nothing to lose so went GF anyway.

Has anyone with CD also been diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis? Have you taken Thyroxine and does it help?
I'm loathe to start taking it as I know that once you start you can't stop.....any suggestions for alternatives?

Confused by Endo response to my symptoms
I explained that my throat hurt and my thyroid felt uncomfortable, he had a quick feel and said I may have had a bout of
thyroiditis
. Outcome was he agreed for me to stay on 125 and have a review in two months but to get my bloods checked with my GP before I see him.

Asthma connection to hypothyroidism?
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's
Thyroiditis
in 2004, in spite of not having any of the antibody tests to my knowledge... my GP merely presumed this diagnosis and I was treated accordingly with replacement Thyroxine (the cheap and cheerful stuff...).
