2weeks ago I started to feel more tierd than normal I woke a few days later with gland on my neck swollen all around my neck very painful headache and no energy. I have been on 200mg thyroxine for about 2years there were all sorts of blood tests done I have to go in and discuss with my gp is there any questions anyone thinks I should ask. I am still being told to have bed rest but finished antibiotic last week I just wast to get back to living some sort of life

What were the results of the blood tests ? Difficult to help as we would only be guessing. I replied to your post of 9 months ago - but no response from you. If you post here and people offer their experiences or advice - then it is helpful to respond and let us know how you are.... Have you followed any of the advice given in your previous posts ?

You are legally entitled to have copies of all your test results. You do not have to give a reason. You can ask the Receptionist for copies. Surgeries should now have records on-line so worth asking. You do not have to reduce your dose unless your FT3 is over range so you need to know the result - it probably was not even tested ... shocking !
