Thank you Thyroid U.K. Admin Team

[Fruitandnutcase]

We are so lucky to have you all. You do an amazing job so thank you so much - where would we be without you 😘

[RedApple Administrator]

Oh gosh, how kind of you FNC. Much appreciated.

[ERIC107]

Oh my goodness... you are SO right Fruitandnutcase ! Thank you for writing how so many of us (all?) feel 🙏

[DippyDame]

Absolutely agree....well said!

[Jaydee1507 Administrator]

Very kind of you FNC. We try. 🙂

[J972]

Wholeheartedly concur 🙌🏼

[HealthStarDust]

Well deserved 💐

[Cassav]

Yes I feel so, so grateful too!

[elwins]

Yes I agree with you, brilliant team who are so knowledgeable.

[Rapunzel]

Indeed, FNC big up me admins! 🫶

[Stills]

They are invaluable

[HealthStarDust in reply to Stills]

I thought that read invisible and wondered why you was being pedantic 🤭🤭🤭

[elwins]

We must also remember the late Seaside Susie who was a fantastic member of the team, so knowledgeable.

[Delgor in reply to elwins]

That's exactly what was going through my mind!

[radd]

F&nc,

What's happening?

[Fruitandnutcase in reply to radd]

Don’t worry, I don’t think anything is happening - I just followed up a post by RedApple reminding us about the TUK administration rules etc by saying thank you to them for all the hard work they put in.

They really are an amazingly hard working and knowledgeable group of people who work constantly on our behalf. I’d say of all the groups I belong to they are without doubt the best administrators around so we’re very lucky to have them.

[radd in reply to Fruitandnutcase]

Absolutely, totally agree and glad ‘nothings happening’ Fanc 😊

[FallingInReverse]

Life changing, so knowledgeable and wise! I am beyond grateful, admins have given me the only hope I have that I am on the right track, which is what gets me through all this unpleasant waiting. I’d be lost without you. Thank you!

[Regenallotment Ambassador in reply to FallingInReverse]

Ditto 🫶🤗🌱

[BenLabrador]

That’s a Yes from me.

[janeroar]

I’d say this forum has been essential to changing thousands of people’s lives.

It would be good if there was a way this collective wisdom could be shared more widely.

Admins, have you considered a book?

[healthkiwi]

True. So grateful for all I have learned from this site, and the obvious commitment and dedication behind the scenes. The breadth of knowledge, and your individual support and kindnesses are extraordinary. Thank you.

And a heartfelt thanks to SeasideSusie, whose loss i feel every time I search through older posts. Wherever, may she and her memory be blessed.

[Sleepman]

A Team, is how I think of you.Thank you so much.

[Verde1]

Really true you are amazing with the support and your knowledge. You go behind the limits to advice and help. Never had any doctor or endocrinologist explain so welll to me. You are such a great team.

Thinking to do a fund raising 🤔 for Thyroid uk research (challenge). But not sure what as is winter, and I am struggling with somethings...any ideas are welcome.

🙏🏼👏👏👏

[goingholiday]

Agreed. The Admin Team are absolutely amazing. Kind, caring, patient and knowledgable. Thank you 😊

[Joat_the_cat]

Wholeheartedly agree, Admin are wonderful 😀

[Slowrunner1208]

couldn’t agree more they’re all 🌟 🌟

[Yellup1]

Hear hear !! I’m so appreciative of them all too 👏❤️

[Lolalottie]

Here! Here!

[Libuse]

I couldn’t agree more. This site has saved my sanity as well as improved my health 😊

[Mugs19 in reply to Libuse]

I am indebted to them. I encourage every fellow sufferer that I meet to join.

[Doris11]

I am forever grateful ❤️

[dunestar]

Of all the forums I belong to this is the best because the admins are so brilliant. I've learned so much 😀

[HealthStarDust]

Someone above mentioned a book? I personally would prefer admins to start some sort of Thyroid Clinic with combined health professionals and people with lived experience, working collaboratively to support us. Wouldn’t that be awesome?

Dreams can come true 😴 🛌

[birkie]

I second that fruitandnutcase❤️... I can't thank this site enough for all the members and the fantastic team, through my awful journey loosing my thyroid and struggling with thyroid medication, and trying to make sense of blood work.Thank the lord we have this site to come to🙏 because I've gained more info on the subject of thyroid conditions than any specialist or gp could ever have.

Again many thanks.. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[Kowbie]

Ahh that’s lovely and I agree with every word you’ve said

[limonene7]

Ditto!! xxx

[Fleurtot]

completely agree. Thank you so much for all your hard work

[Zebra5]

A very big thank you from me too.

[FoggyThinker]

100% agreed. Huge huge thank you, for all you do, Admin team, I often think how much time you must devote to this forum and how much we all owe you.

[FoggyThinker in reply to FoggyThinker]

As I saw it put elsewhere very eloquently, thank you from the heart of my (very ample) bottom!!

[carnation]

Absolutely agree. I have learnt so much.

[Silverlady5]

A huge massive thanks from me too I hate to think how I would of coped without you all x

[Molioli]

You are all a constant source of invaluable information and support, thank you ❤️❤️‍🩹

We don't express this often enough, thank you Friutandnutcase for bringing it up 👏

[susieibbo1]

Thankyou from me too - you are a wonderful team making us feel we are not alone. The extensive knowledge and experience with all aspects of medication and conditions to do with the thyroid is truly amazing. Bless you.

And remembering Seaside Susie as well.

[PixieElv]

I could not agree more! ‘Our’ admin team is amazing. Always there for us with useful tips, unlike some other charities. I asked the Admin team of the Pituitary gland charity for consultant recommendations and was told ‘Go and see your GP or your NHS hospital…’

Wow, if only I had thought of that myself… 🙄

[Klawd]

Thank you Fruitand nutcase, brought a lump to my throat (not Goiler! 😆)......thinking of the Good Hearted people here who have been the Saving Grace of So many of us. When the World's looking a bit bleak 😭 helps to be Gratful. So heres to you.... So gratefull for all the hard work & effort you put in, to help us, A Much Appreciated, Heart felt Big Thank You, from me. 🌷

[Meno56]

I absolutely agree - huge thanks to the admins! I often read other thyroid forums and lament the lack of the sage advice given there and direct people to HU!

[JoJoloveschocolate]

Agree. Don’t know where I’d be without this forum! Dread to think. I’d still be feeling rough on a starter dose of levo…I wouldn’t have known I had tgab without advice to get both antibodies checked…I would have carried on not knowing hardly anything about hypo…the tests and levels…the ideas of “normal”…the vitamins. I wouldn’t have known my ferritin level was low or how to improve it. And I probably would have given up on the levo if it wasn’t for all the advice here about how long things take to even out. It’s all very scary! I feel much better prepared now to handle what comes along now…and where to run back to crying when everything goes belly-up 🤣. xxx

[Fruitandnutcase in reply to JoJoloveschocolate]

No this forum is a real sanity preserver isn’t it. There is so much knowledge floating around. It’s absolutely wonderful 😊

[Polly91]

Nothing new or inspirational to add! But I do want to extend my thanks to the Admin team and all of you who take the time to reply and share insights. It's so very much appreciated.

[Bella59]

Many thanks to the Admin team who give up their own time.I am sure many a member has been helped out by getting answers to various questions.I myself have learned lot from this forum and am grateful.

[TaraJR]

I can't praise this admin team highly enough. I went downhill so far in 2014, but by 2016 I'd learnt on Health Unlocked what I needed to know to get well again. I finally got T3 prescribed in 2016 and it was a complete life changer.

I don't know if I'd still be here without HU - I felt near collapse and often I didn't care if I was here or not.

Now I look after my grandchildren, help run a thriving local choir; and co-lead 2 thyroid patient groups submitting papers to NHSE, DoHSC and The Lords. Woe betide anyone who tells me T3 is a placebo!!

I recommend HU to so many people. It's the very best forum with wonderful, knowledgeable, kind admins. I don't know how you keep it up!

[pennyannie in reply to TaraJR]

Ditto - the slide into hypothyroidism -

this forum also saved my life a couple of years after you had resurficed into the land of the living :
