I sound like a witch but I'm not I'm just telling it like it is if you are not out of range for T4 and TSH they will not treat you for T3. Am I correct or not I just didn't want her waiting around thinking she's going to get what

just wanted to see if everything is normal….
good morning, or afternoon…. I’ve only been dealing with hypothyroidism a short time, most just feeling exhausted, at the beginning had many other symptoms and of course weight is an issue. I am attaching two screenshots. One is my last TSH results, as those are the only tests my GP would do. Yesterday

Does The Thyroid Affect Potassium Levels?
Hi! A bit of a random question but I’ve recently had some bloods taken by my GP surgery and my potassium levels have come back a little low (3.2 range 3.5-5.3) My TSH is 3.06 (range 0.27-4.20), which I think is a little too high although in range, so it got me thinking if there is a link at all between

Cost of a full thyroid panel v TSH alone
We often hear of patients being refused a full thyroid panel due to cost. Can anyone tell me the cost differential to the NHS as I suspect it may be minimal.

Levothyrixine no longer working?
hi everyone. Around 6 months ago I was diagnosed with Hashimotos. My Serum thyroid peroxidase antibody concentration was 173.9 ku/L and my TSH was off kilter. I was prescribed 25mg then increased to 50mg. After a few weeks I felt like a new woman. In the last month I’ve started to feel the same as pre-Levothyroxine

Finally!
Back in July I had a response to a FOI, which I challenged. I sent out numerous emails to different NHS governing bodies. I met a brick wall. Today an email turned up out of the blue from my Health Board. It only took them five months. The complaint was that the blood testing for thyroid did not

Week 6 #1 done
I was going to give myself an extra rest day after slogging my way through a very unpleasant 20 minutes at the end of week 5. The weather was so inviting yesterday morning that instead of a gentle morning of pottering around I set off to start week 6. What could be so difficult about it? After a solid
