Hashimotos/Novothyral 75
My first time posting. I am not sure if a message this long is allowed so I do apologise. I was seeing London consultant as have Hashimotos. Was moved from Levothyroxine 75 every day in November 2023 to Novothyral 75 every day instead as apparently my T4 wasn't converting to T3 very well. Took

Feeling really low at the minute. Sorry this is a long one but just want to write it all down.
After Nstemi in March, I went back to work in April. Was feeling pretty good apart from a burning sensation in the chest area not quite every day. I am on the gold standard meds, apparently and the GP advised that my 3 months was up to and to stop clopidogrel on 14 June. Which I did. He increased my

The six weeks i went without levo this was the full results. Free t3 stayed good at 2.70 range of 2.18 to 3.98, my free t4 dropped drastically to .78 range .76 to 1.46 and my tsh shot up to 9.12 range .36 tp 3.74.

Useless Endocrinology appointment

Can You Refuse Certain Blood Tests
I had a consult with a Livi doctor last week for non thyroid related issue, he wanted me to have a load of bloods done. I've checked online and see what he's ordered. It includes B12, which is pointless as I'm on jabs and have been for years, so B12 always very high. ( the lab always moan and point this

Ttc with high tpo antibodies
I have had 3 miscarriages in the last couple of years. 1 spontaneous 2 mmc. Always around 6 to 7 weeks. I was given aspirin and progesterone on the last pregnancy but it didn't work. After my 3rd mc I had lots of investigations done and it showed I had high TPO antibodies. Everything else was normal.

Mannitol
I’ve been pretty rubbish with compliance of my levothyroxine up until 12 months ago when I made a concerted effort to take every day. Since then I have had significant health problems but normal TSH and free T4. My symptoms have been allergic in nature with angioedema of the airway, hives and joint pain
