Liver, hyperthyroidism, carbimazole
I have been on 15mg of carbimazole for a month to treat my Graves relapse. I started on 30mg and felt worse than being hyper so my endo said I could take half. It has taken me about a month to feel slightly better. I am improving although my insomnia is still challenging. I had a blood test this

Levothyroxine concerns.
So I’m about to start 50mcg of Levothyroxine as a trial. I have subclinical Hashimotos. My concern is if after taking the thyroxine for 8 weeks if my TSH comes into normal range but I’m still suffering with symptoms, my GP won’t increase the dose. I asked and they confirmed this. I don’t understand

T4/3 combo
I’ve been taking Armour Thyroid for over 20 years. Previously on NHS but we moved house to a different area and new GP wouldn’t even discuss it. Armour Thyroid is now very expensive and not easy to obtain. I’m concerned about the long term importing and prescribing issues. Long scenario but now under

Undermedicated thyroid symptoms could be mistaken for Parkinsons?
Please indicate if you think this may be better over in Parkinson Forum... or as well as! After being stable for a good few years, (thanks to the great people on this forum) I managed to drop the ball with my thyroid and have spent the last year getting back on track. My profile shows the details

TSH level
Hi, my daughter’s TSH is 3.7 and she’s on 125mg thyroxine. Although this is the “normal” range. I think it seems high and something isn’t right. Do you agree? Many thanks

Why is nothing ever easy?!
Just had my telephone consult with the gp re tsh 1.96 and increased symptoms again. He basically said that in his experience when the tsh was within range there weren’t any issues and he had never come across that before with patients. He said he understood what i was saying but that we should look into

Thyroid Lab Error
I've had thyroid disorder now for many years and it's been well managed. Now I'm pregnant and getting tested every month. I had a weird experience where my tested my TSH as 4.8 (0.4-4). That raised alarm bells so I went to a private clinic to get full blood work (FT3, FT4, vitamins and minerals etc.)

latest nhs results..
They’ve only done the tsh this time (actually I think that will be the norm now), but strangely the return of my symptoms coincides with an NHS tsh test of 1.96 which is EXACTLY the same tsh result as Sept last year when symptoms returned and I asked for the test and then for a small increase from 50
