HELP WITH TEST RESULTS
Hi Hoping for a little help with these results please I see an endo privately and he prescribes Erfa for me - these are my most recent blood results which the private hospital did. He has looked at them and said they are what he would expect taking Erfa. However I have put almost 2 stone in

Tongue / Graves disease
Can the thyroid affect the tongue? I was borderline again last time and have a blood test end of Feb due to be discharged if ok but I think as I keep being borderline they're not sure what to do with me. As to whether my body is naturally on borderline as I don't really get many of the symptoms Mild

Drinking & Thyroid
Just wondered if many of you with an underactive thyroid drink alcohol? Not an excessive amount but a few drinks perhaps. Of late and since being diagnosed with one I feel like my tolerance for it is terrible and one or two glasses of wine can wipe me out the next day. Is there any link? Be great to

Advice regarding Thyroid levels
Hi Could do with some advice regarding my thyroid test levels. I have Hashimoto's but am not taking thyroid medication due to my TSH levels not being high enough yet. I was diagnosed just over 2 years ago after my health had declined for several years. My GP did however agree to a 25mcg Levothyroxine

Still can’t lose weight - on NDT for 3 months
My mother is severely hypo and was untreated while she was pregnant with me. I’ve been hypo literally my whole life, though I was misdiagnosed earlier in life until I figured it out myself 1yr ago after a couple miscarriages and 18 months of creeping weight gain. I take 120mg or 2 grains of Thyroid-S

Euthyrox❗️❗️❗️❗️help
Until now, they provided Euthyrox with lactose from November, we now have Euthyrox with mannitol and citric acid instead of lactose.האם מישהו לקח את האוטירוקס החדש עם נימון? האם הרגשת שינוי לטובה או לרעה? אני באמת מפחד מהשינוי, תודה על כל עזרה.

Advice please
Hello, hypothyroid here, currently taking 225mg levothyroxine daily. Visited the Dr (NHS) last week for a few ongoing issues, including a lump in my neck (just right of neck centre) and was seen primarily by a student Dr who’s findings were then discussed/assessed with GP. Very convinced it’s a goitre

To Thyroidectomy or Not to Thyroidectomy
Hi there! Hoping for some guidance, advice and possibly real life results from some members. I was diagnosed with Graves' Disease this time last year. I had every possible symptom you can imagine. I started on Methimazole almost immediately. My numbers have gotten better but are still not controlled.
