Hey I’m 31F, not sure of my exact weight - definitely overweight but not obese. I have PCOS diagnosed when I was 16. Around 4 months ago I started having an odd pain in my left side under my left ribs. Really intermittent but got more frequent as time went on. I’m experiencing vibration like

Results- antibody
I had a thyroid blood test. While my tsh and t4 are within range (t3 borderline low) as I am for 7 months now on Levotyroxine that appears to work.The anti-tg antibodies are now high (at 570 IU/ml) and it is first time that they were tested. I do not know how long I had the antibodies as my symptoms

Constantly bleeding / zoladex
I'm coming to to my 3rd shot of zoladex next week but for the last 5 weeks I've had 3 periods and all have been a week long. I had 5 days respite between 2 and my current period. I'm currently on day 7 and is not letting up, so don't know how much longer this 3rd will go on for. They aren't light,

symptoms flare-up
I have been battling an iron deficiency since November, that seems to be a result of my correcting b12 deficiency with shots. I have not been taking the full recommended dose of iron until about a week ago. My ferritin is 25, which is up from 14, but still deficient. The last 3 weeks or so I have notice

Doubling Dose of Thyroxine?
Hi, I’d like your thoughts and opinions (I’ll make the decision 🙂) on doubling my thyroxine dose by taking two tablets per day. I’m on 50mg, been at that for years, but I still feel cold especially feet and hands. My TSH level is 3.28 and whilst it might be in range, I understand it should be more around

Doubling Dose For Hypothyroidism?
Hi, I know this is not the thyroid thread. I’m here because I’m B12 deficient, SI with hydroxocobalamim. But because it’s an autoimmune problem I sure a number of others are affected by hypothyroidism hence my desire to get thoughts and opinions (I’ll make the decision 🙂) on doubling my thyroxine dose

New FDA approved genetic test to predict the chance of opioid addiction
I am concerned about the new genetic test AvertD just approved by the FDA https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2024/03/25/dna-test-opioid-addiction/ It uses DNA to predict whether a person is likely to get addicted to opioids. I can envision where doctors will require patients to take the test and

Hyperthyroidism and Pegasys
Hi everyone, I have been on Pegasys for my ET for about 5 months and have now found out I have very low TSG levels and too high t4, i.e. hyperthyroidism. Has anyone else experienced thyroid problems and did they have to come off IFN? Thanks!

Trying to find T3 in Portugal or EU
Hello all- I am an American living in the Algarve. My Endocrinologist here( in Porto) has written a Rx for Sanofi Thybon immediate release(to be taken in small doses over the course of the day) to replace the compounded T3 medication I brought from the United States. I have no idea where to get this

Tsh 7.09
Hello My mum is 86 & on 75mg level. She has recently had an iron infusion privately as had a ferritin of just 6. Those levels now normal I asked for a full thyroid but they don't do T3 & will have to do a fingerprick test on her. (If she agrees!) Tsh 7.09 (0.35 - 5.5) T4 16.6 (10.5 - 21)

Hypo and Menopausal
Good morning you lovely people does anyone have any information surrounding thyroid meds and HRT? Since taking HRT I feel more hypo and my main symptom is a lot of hair loss. GP is trying to help but doesn’t really understand and still only goes by TSH. Do the hormones interfere with each other? I make
