D102 results

[Joeybobs]

Hi I've just got my D102 results back and the findings are:-D102 rs225014 TT

Anybody any ideas what this means please?

[TiggerMe Ambassador]

TT means should function correctly? I'm CT which is a bit wonky and I think CC is proper wonky

This explains it rather better 🤗

There's a children's book by Craig Smith called The Wonky Donkey. Obvs it's all about you!

That's where I borrowed my picture from 😏 I had no idea of the fame 😁

Are you struggling converting T4? Were you hoping to trial T3?

p.s it's dio2 🤗

Joeybobs,

You have a wild type genotype (TT) which is the most common and indicates a less probability of conversion problems involving DIO2.

Some members hope/succeed in securing a T3 prescription with evidence of a DIO2 impairment but remember even without there are numerous others involved that will determine how well you utilise thyroid hormone and in particular which thyroid hormone meds.

Hi, I have the rs 225014 but CC so seems I am properly wonky. Despite this my GP refuses to concede there is any thyroid issue so I self treat and now feel better than I used to. Hope everything works out for you. Regards

Being that wonky if you can get a referral to the NHS Endo you should be able to get it prescribed 🤗 wouldn't mean anything to a GP

[Wickety in reply to TiggerMe]

Hi Eyeore100, I thought that too and asked for a referral which was agreed. However it was a paper based request from GP to endo but prepared by a clinical assistant at the surgery. I have a copy of it. It does not mention the years I had been trying to get anyone at the surgery to take me seriously, nor did it mention previous under active results/family history (mother and sibling). No wonder the endo wrote back to the surgery saying they couldn't understand why at my age I was suddenly worried about a thyroid issue, it went onto add that since the Dio2 test was not done at an NHS lab it could be ignored! So I never got to explain anything to the endo in person, maybe at my age they just think I no longer matter. Of course you will understand that there was rather a long drawn out wait after I asked for copies of the letters but got them eventually. I'm sad to say when NHS crops up I think some of it is truly wonderful but in my surgery it stands for the no help service.Regards

I have just done this test and am waiting for results. When they come in I have to have a consultant receive them as they won`t give them directly to me. They provide a telephone consultant for £65, I had no choice but pay it as I had already paid for the test. The company is Regenerus Labs and it cost me £92 (plus the £65), results in 27 days! So how did you manage to get your results?

[TiggerMe Ambassador in reply to destiny234]

I got them to send the result to my GP which doesn't cost anything

[destiny234 in reply to TiggerMe]

My gp wouldn’t know what it is even. And he’d start looking in my notes (new doc, new area) and that’s another story.

[TiggerMe Ambassador in reply to destiny234]

Mine didn't either, like you say best if they ignore it but I was able to get the receptionist to print a copy off for me 😉
