The TSH and diogenes
I just found this, written by diogenes some time ago, that I saved:
The following papers from the Japanese shows that, in people with no working thyroid, "normal" healthy-type conditions on T4 therapy only occur if TSH is between 0.03-0.5.
Above this, hypo symptoms are still present. You

Thinking of Stopping Treatment Due to Continued Weight Gain
Over the last 2+ years Ive gained 50 pounds due to premature Ovarian Failure and Hypothyroidism. I was originally diagnosed with Graves Disease in 2014.

I think Tramadol has caused my RLS
Hi everyone, I'm new here and I'd love some advice, please. I have MS - I was diagnosed in the late 90s. I'm lucky that it hasn't affected me badly (yet), but I do suffer from pretty severe nerve pain. I managed it with Co-Codamol 30/500 for years. I'd been prescribed 8 per day but rarely took more

High Folate with PA terrible GP
Hello everyone, Im afraid this might be a little long, but i hope someone can help me. It has been a long and upsetting morning. It started with a 630am ER visit for excruciating groin/hip pain for past 6 days and very hard to walk. Anyway, I'm confused. Some of my tests came back surprising. I

Diarrhoea and thyroid hormones
Not a great topic but needs must! I'm under investigation for gastro issues, am waiting for a referral to a consultant hopefully soon. I may have an inflammatory bowel disease or (I really hope not) bowel cancer - or something else, although infection ruled out. I have very high calprotectin levels

Thyroid Testing
My husband, almost 72, just had blood work with everything good except cholesterol (little high 227) and high TSH 7.93, slightly low T4. He has no symptoms of hypothyroidism! Since he has no symptoms, we're waiting 3 months to retest and T3 also, and he works 45 hours a week loading and unloading yard
