Charlatan or science?
hi folks, I am awaiting diagnosis of Grave’s disease and during the last 3 months since my blood tests via the NHS and the waiting game to see an endocrinologist, I have been researching hyperthyroidism. The internet is FULL of people claiming there is a link between micro biome and leaky gut and Graves

Symptoms
Tsh 12.5 miu/lT4 16.4 pmol/l Both have improved since my last thyroid blood test but these past few weeks I have shortness of breath and pain in my neck. Could this be down to my t4 been too high even though its within range. Thanks

Looking back on my thyroid journey, a success story and motivation to keep on fighting :)
Two years ago an occupational health advisor wrote a review of my condition for my employer that broke my heart. I was 2 months into taking NDT and finally starting to see some improvements in my Hashimoto’s symptoms. I was gradually building up my stamina and able to go for a 15 minute walk, and I

Coeliac-related thyroid problems
My 15 year old granddaughter has thyroid problems(hypo) associated with her having coeliac disease. Her condition is monitored (TSH is currently 5) and it seems to be a case of "wait and see" and the thyroid may correct itself. I understand this but the symptoms of feeling unwell, low energy etc from

Is it all because of thyroid or separate?
Hello everyone, I was dx with hypothyroidism 7 years ago. Around the same time I was dx with metabolic syndrome and have suffered so bad over the years with statins and recently my cholesterol levels and trigs results are through the roof. I've been on 150mcg levothyroxine for near on 3 yrs now.

TSH/T3/T4/Vit B & D results
My previous Endo (private) retired last October and the new one (private) that I was suggested to see immediately reduced my Lio from 100 to 75 & the T3 from 20 to 10. Originally I had wanted to see an NHS Endo 3 years ago but none were available, hence the private route. My readings are T4 18.8 -

Follow up T3 question
Okay, so, it has only recently reached my consciousness that the fact that my thyroid "died" (I got a goiter and my TSH was only barely above "normal" so at first they didn't want to treat me even though I gained 30lbs in a month and lost all my body hair and on and on) at the exact same moment (literally

working out what my results mean
Firstly thank you for all the help I’ve received already with my numerous questions. My question today is how do I fully understand the percentage through range? I have posted my results before and I’ve been told my t3 is low and I’m a poor converter. As an example my most recent results are:- TSH

Thyroid patients suffering
Not sure if this has article has been flagged before, but I found it interesting. I was surprised that they estimate thyroid problems affect 1 in 20 and still we struggle to get any help. https://www.abdn.ac.uk/news/17040/

Diagnosis
Hi, I'm perimenopausal and my hormone dips have thrown up digestion, hyperosmia, brain fog issues and because of lack of appetite I have become malnourished and very low on ferritin despite trying the super heme from 3 Arrows. I've had some private bloods done. Notable results are:- T3 2.97 T4

Ferritin dropping, FT3 is not great
Hello wise ones. I'm coming up to a year since a diagnosis of Hashimotos, and on Levothyroxine. I've been trying to get the dosage increased in tiny increments of 12.5 ug after each blood test. So far I've been successful but it feels like slow progress. I'm currently taking 87.5 ug daily. My doctor
