Increased thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) as a possible risk factor for atherosclerosis in subclinical hypothyroidism.
Have to admit, it is quite hard to read and I have not managed the entirety yet! But it does appear to read that even subclinical hypothyroidism might be important in itself - due to the increased TSH. [i]

Supplements before blood test?
Hi all - now that I am finally medicated and also had loading doses of B12 (and I paid for vit D3) injections, figuring out supplements I need to take alongside figuring out what is triggering my hyperthyroidism - I wanted to check which I should NOT take prior to the blood test I have finally got to

I gained 3 stone after the pregnancy before diagnosis. I have lost 2 stone but this last stone does not shift no matter

medichecks results different from GP
I did a home test back in. March in order to get some information other than the GP test who wanted to reduce my Levo and put me on Statins. I take 100mcg daily and feel well on this dosage, when I was on 75mcg, I felt lethargic and not myself. The new results are CRP HS. 1.510 mg/L. (Range < 3

My path to combination therapy
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 25 years ago, in my mid-thirties. For almost 20 years, I took only Levothyroxine. I realise now that I was probably depressed for the whole period. Back in 2016, I decided to quit drinking alcohol. I wasn't an alcoholic, but I was drinking every day, and sometimes

helvela Re don’t stop thyroxine b4 blood tests
Taking the thyroxine on the morning of the test, would only confuse the inexperienced. It will change your T4 levels slightly, and not influence your TSH. It won't impact my interpretation of your results. It is not worth worrying about. The vast majority of doctors are experienced enough to understand
