Erfa swap update
my ferritin has just come back as 28 (5-204) I think this is my iron store so it’s clearly deficient. I’ve struggled with anaemia since I was about 18 (maybe before but no cause before then for a blood test it was discovered when I became a donor) No one has ever given me a reason for this! And I

Hi, I have been having a number of issues which I thought were low thyroid related, or B12 deficient, both bloods currently look fine thought, apart from my thyroid peroxidase antibodies which have risen from 468KIUL to 502KIUL (range 0-34). What I would like to know is, can thyroid tap or pulse? I

Armour Thyroid for over 20 years
I have been taking Armour thyroid since 2000... Have had my current Dr for at least 20. When I had COVID last time (about 2 years ago .. very mild case) I noticed my TSH was up (over 3...very high for me and on Armour). I mentioned it to my Dr and she suggested waiting, it could be temporary. In the

Advice before speaking to GP
Hi Everyone I am asking for advice before I speak to my GP. All advice gratefully received. I know when I posted my last results on here people said my high cholesterol was possibly due to my Thyroid levels. My TSH was 2.5 (range 0.27-4.2) which people here said was too high as I’m on Levothyroxine

Cataracts
Has anybody had cataracts due to thyroid issues. I had one removed in my right eye removed four years ago. Now I have to have one in my left eye removed. When I had the first one done I didn’t know about my thyroid issues. Would be grateful if anyone could let me know. Thanks

TSH slowly creeping back up.
I’ve been here before (the forum) but lost all my logon details so I’ve re-registered. I’m hitting the usual brick wall with my GP, so I’ll try once more before I do something I’m unhappy about,but I’m getting desperate. Briefly, my TSH is slowly increasing. By which I mean that my most recent results

Tests required after more troubles with thyroxine
Hello, I’m after a bit of advice re blood tests. Long story short, in 2019 it appeared that thyroxine was actually making me gain weight (a stone and a half in a short space of time) while diet and exercise remained the same. I had battled with thyroxine for around 20 years at this point do I decided

What is my status
Please could someone clarify this for me as had an overactive thyroid which was knocked out with RAI. I am Thyroxine which, thank goodness, has stabilised me so that I am Euthyridic (sp) however there are the occasional flareups of eye problems associated with Throid Eye Disease. What I am really confused

BBC Article : Prescription drugs sold online without robust checks
Whenever I see this type of article - the BBC and others produce these things every couple of years, I think - I start worrying that I'm going to lose access to thyroid hormones on the web. I know this subject came up with the MHRA last year or the year before, but I don't have a link. Link : https:

Hi, I have low thyroid and been on Ndt now for some months and feeling great, 1 1/2 am 1 pm. I have just been diagnosed with osteopenia which can be the start of osteoporosis.
