No stamina
I am confident I have my thyroid hormones at right level and most of my symptoms are gone. I am slowly losing weight, alert, happy, skin is better. My arthritis plays up hence the inflammation but my main issue is lack of stamina. I can only really do one thing a day after which I am wiped out and need

GP note to Endo... I wonder how this will pan out... Update added
I'd received the ominous text after a blood test (which was supposed to be for all the useful vits & mins etc turns out you don't get them if they were within range last year??? 🫤) so just TSH then!... "[i]your blood test is showing that you are still overtreated we shall be contacting your Endo[/i]

I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in Canada 35 years ago, treatment was successful. Back in UK for 20 yrs, was under endocrinologist for 5 yrs then only GP.Question: it seems that I have only been tested for TSH & T4 under GP, when I recently asked GP about T3 (as am feeling exhausted) was told that it

pregnancy RLS
I was on medication before I was pregnant because my RL was so severe. Since being pregnant the medication wasn’t advised due to lack of research. I am approaching 32 weeks pregnant and it’s worse than ever! I can’t sleep. Iv tried iron supplements, tens machine, ice packs, magnesium cream and bath salts

bloods and upping T3 level- help needed please
Hello I’ve had recent blood results and my T3 remains at bottom of the ‘normal’ range. bloods are: T4 18 (12-22) TSH 1.52 T3 3.2 (3.1-6.8) I had similar results in September. I stopped liothyronine about 6 months ago for a variety of reasons, mainly anxiety/ tremor. My current dose of Levo

Help!
Above are my bloods since diagnosis and as you can see they are all over the place. I felt best on 100/75 Levo and 2 x 5 Lio but my endo has reduced this as my TSH was suppressed. When I say I felt best - I've never felt great, always poor sleep tired, hair and nails a mess and other thyroid symptoms

Ferritin Levels/Hair Loss/Thyroid
Good morning I have started to loose my hair and the doctor is insistent its not a change in my thyroid levels, although my TSH has changed over the last couple of readings. So I was told to have a ferritin test and take vitamin D, I also take B12. Thinking that it would be low hence the hair loss

TSH post levo raise - how low can you go?
Hello again, I've been on a mini trial of raising my levo by 12.5mcg / day for 8 weeks in hope of raising T3 and losing a bit of weight. Is TSH of 0.13 (0.27-4.2) too low? I feel great and weight has been going down gently. The Dr's report from Medichecks says only if I experience overactive symptoms

What do I do next? Is this T3 results low?
Hi all, just had my latest results from Medichecks, TSH is low, T3 and T4 normal. Tests were done 9am following the usual recommended protocol. The comments with the results suggests I'm perhaps over medicated and could be at risk of osteoporosis due to the low TSH. Is that right? They suggest perhaps
