Graves Disease
Hi, I have type 2 diabetes, I was over-prescribed metformin which had its horrors. When I came off it I was quickly diagnosed with thyroxicosis and hypercalcemia. Saw the endocrinologist yesterday. |He sat there and said do you know what you have wrong with you, then he told me I had Graves disease

My introduction re Thyroid tests April. 2024

Armour Thyroid
I was taking Armour Thyroid from 2003 to 2016 when I was told I could no longer have it and was given Liothyronine but a much lower dose 5mcg x twice a day as opposed to 3 grains of Armour x once a day. Since then I have gained weight again, I sweat profusely, and falling asleep all the time.

Does this sound like Hashimoto's please?
Hello, My thyroid has been under suspicion for many years but I cannot seem to get any answers. Postnatally, (four months after giving birth), some fifteen years ago, my TSH was tested and was 12.6. Nothing was done about this. ( I have only just seen this on my NHS app). Fast forward to eight years

Thyroid Receptor Ab
Hi Just had an additional test back the endo requested ahead of initial apt. Thyroid Receptor Ab (TRAb?) which was middle range at < 1.5 iu/l. (Range:0 - 3.3 iu/l) Is this a Graves disease test? Otherwise High TSH, positive TPO, low nutrients. And inflammation markers up. Just wondered if this TRAb

Euthyrox❗️❗️❗️❗️help
Until now, they provided Euthyrox with lactose from November, we now have Euthyrox with mannitol and citric acid instead of lactose.האם מישהו לקח את האוטירוקס החדש עם נימון? האם הרגשת שינוי לטובה או לרעה? אני באמת מפחד מהשינוי, תודה על כל עזרה.

Does anyone know if someone who has had a thyroidectomy due to thyroid cancer and someone who suffers with hashimoto's experience the same long term symptoms?

SIDE EFFECTS FROM HYPO MEDS
Anyone else out there who’s resistant to all the hypothyroid meds they’ve tried? Over the last year I’ve tried Synthroid, Synthroid with Cytomel, Erfa, Erfa with Synthroid, and compounded NDT - which is pretty much all we have available to us in Canada. They all increase my hypo symptoms and give

How much water do you drink with Levothyroxine?
I used to drink a full glass water based on some generic brand's PILs. Now I'm taking Euthyrox and it says to take the medicine with a little(half a glass) of water. Is that enough?

Myo-inositol increasing TSH?
Hello, wondering if anyone has experience of taking myo-inositol and any impact on their TSH please? I’ve been taking it for 4 months for PCOS, TSH was 1.1 just before I started and is now 4.8 (T3 and T4 within range). I read up on it before I started and the (limited) research indicated it could be

Confused
I had the Monitor My Health advanced thyroid test and I shared them with my GP who said that because I’m already on Lego, the TPO test is irrelevant. My TPO result is 64 so if m already n Lego, isn’t that a concern? I’m experiencing symptoms such as weight gain, cold feet and hands, inflammations

Advice on latest results please
I’ve had a bumpy ride over the past 4 years, some of it self-induced by being impatient. When I started testing my thyroid everything was low inc tsh and cortisol, in retrospect I suppose my body was just trying to survive on drippings. I was never sure I had a thyroid problem as my tsh was always
