Thankyou so much, do kind

Re endos No I haven't in fact sadly,

😔 May I therefore ask the reverse ( who to avoid)

The NHS is mad

I went for a over 60 free health check yesterday and hoped for sugar testing - no, not allowed as saving costs! And I wasn't coming up as high enough risk!

( told to loose weight and do aerobic ......)!!!!!!!

Sadly Iv not moved on too well with things, tsh had come down to 4 to date

Thnx x

Jeppy,

Ask your GP for a dose increase. You're not likely to lose weight until you are optimally dosed which for most people is when TSH is between 0.3 - 1.0 with FT4 in the upper range. FT4 needs to be in the upper range in order that sufficient T3 is converted. Read Treatment Options in thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/about_... Email louise.roberts@thyroiduk.org if you would like a copy of the Pulse article to show your GP.

You can also ask Louise for a list of member recommended endocrinologists.

I DO want to take good adrenal support

I haven't a clue which though

Cortisol test was

Low early

Spiked high at 11am

Ok in afternoon

And spiked high at bedtime although did computer which I know now not good

Any thoughts welcome

I do believe thus ironed out could improve all systems

Jeppy,

I don't know anything about cortisol. I suggest you write a new post with your cortisol results and ask for advice.

I was Clutter

Then I upped to 50 and then 75

Because Iv reduced tsh this doc thinks I'm fine but she thought I was fine anyway!

I was diagnosed by another doctor before I moved last year

I can't face any battling at the moment I'm done

For many years Iv been unwell and was just offered anti depressants so I went down in spirit I'm afraid as it's my life !!

Tried some westrpud but had palps

I think maybe my vitamins were too low to sustain it

Still taking b12 and D and selenium

I'm due a private blood test but hoped to see my tsh lower by now

So why I've moved over to adrenals also , as itmakes sense to me

I had ongoing stress and Keeping afloat for years

It's the whole thing isn't it clutter?

It's just to get your body better

I had horrific head injury at age ten

And now reading this may be pituatory problem?

Don't know which way to turn to be honest so shut downs bit

Any pointing in right direction much appreciated x
