Why have you put an email address on your post? I would remove that because it does seem to reveal someones name and date of birth and this is an open forum and anyone can view it.

That is ok but you might get scam mails if anyone can see your email address ... I was only trying to be helpful that is all. We are mainly anonymous on this forum because we don't want to be identified especially when we are criticising the medical care we have been given.

Have you any autoimmune diseases?

Have your thyroid hormones been tested by your doctor?

If not, I'd request a TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) T4, T3 and thyroid antibodies. Blood should be drawn at the earliest possible, fasting (you can drink water) and take medication after blood draw not before.

Post your results and also include the ranges which are in brackets after the results. . Ranges are important for members to respond.

You asked this question 3 days ago but haven't responded to any of the replies

Nobody here is medically qualified so we can't diagnose and suggest any treatment.

The main question is have you discussed this with your GP?

You didn't answer the question about whether or not you have a thyroid condition.

Ask the receptionist at your surgery for a print out of all your test results then post them on the forum, along with their reference ranges which will be on the print out (ranges are important as they vary from lab to lab).

You still haven't answered the question already asked twice

The main question is have you discussed this with your GP?
