Kidney function and hypothyroidism?
My hypothyroidism was finally acknowledged six weeks ago. I've been on 50mcg daily. I've just had the first blood test since starting treatment. My fT4 has 'risen' from 8.8% to 9.3%. My TSH has dropped below 1 (0.7) for the first time according to blood tests going back to 2007. I'm a bit disappointed

Still suffering
My story is so long, so I will try to start where I am currently. An update: I have been on gabapentin (1800mg) and Rquip (4mg) for over 20 years. Just recently my RLS became unrelenting. I can't sleep, and I am so tired. Ihave been to so many doctors here in Oklahoma who really know nothing about RLS

Tips for Apt with NHS Endo
Hi All, hope you are having a good day. I’m a few months into taking Thybon Henning T3 only and I finally think I have found a medication that is working for me. Less anxiety, pain and I’m generally coping better. Any tips on how to persuade the NHS Endocrinologist to potentially prescribe Thybon Henning

Change to Levo timings/splitting dose?
After PM in with a very helpful Forumite, she has given me the idea of splitting my dose. One part in the morning and one part later in the day. I think this is worth pursuing for two reasons. 1.) My night time heart racing is a blooming nuisance if nothing else. 2.) I am getting the sense that my

Raised Thyroglobulin ab
Hi. I had a total thyroidectomy and radio iodine treatment in 2016 for Papillary Ca. I've been having annual monitoring since with no concerns. My most recent blood test shows normal thyroglobulin but raised thyroglobulin antibodies at 40. My latest is TSH 0.7 and T4 in normal range. What I want to know

body giving up on me after Covid… the saga continues!
Hi all - body is still really giving up on me after contracting Covid in May and struggling to put it all right. I’ve had pernicious anaemia for many, many years but never experienced anything like this. My B12 definitely isn’t working properly and neither is my stomach! First came the tanking ferritin
