Anyone having B12 injections + hypothyroid?
Hi Has anyone here started taking B12 injections whilst on thyroid medication for hypothyroidism? And if you did, did the B12 affect the thyroid medication in any way? I seem to be noticing a higher heart rate since starting B12 last weekend. But I have permanent atrial fibrillation anyway so my

Further info on blood panel
Hello! I posted a couple of weeks back with some questions about low B12 investigations and was about to have a very full and detailed blood panel. I've got some further info from my blood tests. I don't have a copy yet, they're on the way, so I'll have to be vague about actual numbers for some of them

Experience with Covid and hypo/hashis
Hi all, I’ve been quite stable for a number of years now. I was on NDT and doing ok but not perfect, adding a small amount of Levo to my NDT at the end of 2019 made me feel really well, pulling my FT4 up in the range a bit made a big difference. At the beginning of May this year I thought I caught

B12 injections stopped by gp after 5 years treatment on nhs
I was diagnosed with chronic b12 deficiency years ago - my GP started giving me injections every 3 months and my nurse told me that it was for life. I’ve always eaten meat my whole life - so my deficiency was not caused by diet. They have stated that my deficiency is due to malabsorption, but my intrinsic

Thyroid Test Results
As a result of my GP pressurising me to reduce Levothyroxine intake I have had tests carried out privately. My weight justifies the dosage of 200mcg daily that is currently prescribed. (1.6mcg/kg) However this dosage results in incredibly low TSH levels. My GP seeks to raise TSH levels. Results are

When to take Medication, Vits and HRT?
Hi All Please can you give me some advice? I would like to begin taking Estrogen (Lenzetto spray) and Progesterone (Utrogestan) again. I am fearful though, when I began taking it last time my TSH went up to 28 so had to stop taking it. I was taking it a few hours in a morning after my thyroid

Wow, what a difference!
I've just had my 1st conversation with my new doctor. She started by saying that ".....your TSH is low, but that is explained by the fact that you're taking T4 & T3, so how do you feel?" She didn't know that T3 can now be prescribed again, but she does now. We had a sensible conversation and I'm going

Introducing myself
Hi, I'm new to the forum and thought I'd share a brief summary of how I ended up here. It's hard to say exactly when my symptoms started but in 2019, when I was 62, I found myself so persistently lacking in energy that I decided I should mention it to a doctor. The first doctor I saw did some blood

Help, GP appointment tomorrow still can't get them to listen.
So the saga continues, Sneaky GP has refused to reinstate 150mcg daily since reducing it to 150mcg eod in November when TSH 0.01 , 0.27- 4.2, FT4 21.6 12-22, .my HbA1c went up to 54 Vit D 125 , Endo recently said this level was dangerously toxic thought the range BH anyway of 75-200 was optimal

Book on hypothyroidism as I wait for Levo to kick in?
Hi all, and thanks for having me here. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in October and started on 25mg Levo per day. Last week I saw my GP for (I think) an unrelated matter. She looked at my blood results from December (TSH 2.35, down from 4.39 in October, and T4 9.2, up from 7.9 in October) and

Cardiac rehab class, a bit disappointing at the moment

I was fit and strong prior to surgery , apart from a “fatigue” that is been to my GP about (tested B12, thyroid, Testosterone.
