Good News
Hello Lovely Members So I just had my dreaded Endo appointment at Royal Berkshire Hospital and the Endo prescribed me T3 but wanted me to add in 50mcg of Levo as my TSH is so suppressed and my T4 levels are non-existent. I agreed to try. I think this Endo is not on our list so his name is Dr ([i]name

At a loss and feeling ill
Went to Drs yesterday to request a referal to an endo, as I feel unwell, weak and wobbley - for well over a year now. I told him that I had paid for a private blood test to check my t3 levels, as the Nhs doesn't like doing them that often, and he totally refused to look at them. Said that, if theyre

I have had my thyroid checked. I’m sure my consultant is going to reduce my thyroxine dose because of my suppressed TSH. My TSH has been suppressed ever since I started taking medication (2004). Should he be reducing it? I always do better with my T4 in the top end. I had my T4 tested (without the

Dr declining Levo increase
I was diagnosed with autoimmune hypothyroidism last August. Currently on 75mcg levothyroxine. Symptoms are better but not gone as much as I’d hoped so requested an increase via letter as couldn’t get appt. They then phoned me for a telephone appt but said as numbers are in range they won’t agree to

Are these results okay?
Hi,I have been having overwhelming fatigue resulting in me needing to sleep during the day most days, which is most unlike me. I have also been having heavy periods every 3 weeks, sometimes even less, last cycle was 19 days. Terrible brain fog and inability to concentrate. GP said it could be thyroid

Nosebleeds and thyroid / blood test query / going private
Hi there :) You were all so helpful when I was first diagnosed with hypothyroidism last year, and I was hoping I could trouble you all with another question. - My levothyroxine was raised to 75mg a day in February based on my NHS blood test (TSH 5.91 mU/L, free T4 15.8pmol/L). - Not really sure if

12dp6dt and BFN, is this over?
I'm 12dp6dt today. I had almost no symptoms up to this morning when I woke up to cramps like my usual periods. The blood on the pad/bowl looks like the kind of bleeding I get on Day 1 of period. Took a home pregnancy test and there wasn't even a faint line. From your experience, does this sound like

FT3 often higher than FT4; are my symptoms even hypo?
Hello everyone! I've been hypo now for a bit more than two years. Probably three or more, but diagnosed 2 years ago, and also taken levo since then. As doctors can be a bit difficult, and I have felt with no other choice, I have raised my levo dose myself several times. Otherwise I would still be
