Levothyroxine and Menopause
Hi all, I had thyroid cancer many years ago and had a thyroidectomy. I’ve been on levothyroxine for 21 years. I’m in my early 50’s and menopausal. I’ve started HRT which still needs to adjusted BUT the Endocrinologist is lowering my levothyroxine. I exercise regularly and have a very physical job

B12 injection before my hip replacement
Hi I have B12 injections every 12 weeks from my GP but inject every 3 weeks at home. My question is should I inject a couple of days before I go in? I feel absolutely exhausted and in continual pain. Your answers will be much appreciated. I have it done on the 24th April. Thankyou.

Best HRT for...
I have just gone through actual menopause and have had a number of symptoms creep into my life steadily over the past 10 odd years. To help manage them and minimise risk of CVD, Type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis, etc., I am going to embrace HRT and, fingers crossed, get a bit of 'me' back.I know there are

I was just diagnosed with multiple goiters
hello, I have never had any thyroid issues in my life until my doctor felt my neck and said -you have goiters- I got an ultrasound and I have multiple goiters on both sides of my neck.

no help from the gp
I have not been diagnosed - my doctor has no idea and can’t find someone to refer me to. I have a few questions and feel this might be the best place to get answers as mu GP is no help. I broke my hip 2 years ago and walked around on it for 6 months before I got to the stage I couldn’t get out off bed

uncontrollable head (only)sweating
Im in my mid 50's have probably gone through menopause by now, but GP insists i still use HRT, i have used tablets single dose , patchs now use a gel on my thighs daily, i honestly do not think this is a hot flush. If i get hot from normal everyday activities including exercise it is guaranteed my head
