I had an under active thyroid, been taking 50mg levothyroxine for 1 yr, 3 blood tests since all show perfect levels but I can’t lose weight.
Even though my blood tests show that I’m on the correct dose of Levothyroxine since having a hemi-thyroidectomy, I cannot shift the pounds, even though I am eating very few calories every day. (Everything that I do eat throughout the day is nutritious, small portions, and I have no junk food or “empty

My turn to go to A&E
Well what a day i had yesterday, at about 4am i woke up in a right state as couldn't breathe. It took quite a while for me t get back to sleep. When i woke up i didn't feel well at all. It was as much as i wanted to do just to get up and go to the loo before coming downstairs to get myself a cup of tea

embaby back transferred in on day 3
thanks to everyone who replied to my post about double vs single transfers. I decided to go for a single embryo transfer in the end. I just thought the risk of twins and all the things that come with it would be too much for us physically and financially . So we transferred a top quality embryo today

when does your low TSH stop following you around the NHS?
This morning had a long ‘ difference of opinion’ with a consultant of ‘Geriatric falls and syncope’ about my raised HR ( c.95-115) following various BP/HR problems with 3+ years of Long Covid…she had decided it was likely related to my low TSH suggesting I was over medicated for hypothyroidism. All

Endo blood test codes
Hi after my recent post about rising TSH I asked my nhs endo to do the reccommend thyroid blood tests. I have received the blood test form today but am not sure what some of the codes mean. I know he said he couldn’t do all of them so I wanted to work out which to pay for privately. I recognise

If anyone has a recommendation for an endo at Southampton Hospital can you dm me please? I have been on T3/levothyroxine combination for quite a while as I do not convert sufficiently on Levothyroxine alone. I recently increased my levothyroxine by 25mg a day following my last blood results and

Post-Covid lung issues - what to expect?
Hi all, I had Covid in mid November and have been sick ever since, particularly (and perhaps only) breathlessness and fatigue. I was first diagnosed with asthma, but the meds only seemed to stave off a worse episode of breathlessness. So I went back to the docs and insisted on being seen, as I was

so confusing
I had PMR in my 50s. Was treated with prednisone until the PMR burned itself little over a year later. Last June, 20 years later, my hands and wrists became a problem. No swelling but pain & stiffness in fingers and wrists. Carpal tunnel syndrome was the first dx. Over the summer pain and stiffness

Can't figure out what's wrong with me?
Hi all, I was diagnosed with Graves in Feb 23 (though I'm not actually sure as I tested negative for thyroid peroxidase and TRab, feel like my endo just defaulted to Graves as I didn't have any nodules). I've been on carbimazole since and T3/T4 has been good, TSH has generally always been high and bouncing

Dosage Amounts on Combi Therapy
Hope no one minds sharing, I started on self sourced T3 in December, adding it to my Levo. I'm due to run my first blood test on this new regime in a week on two. I'm curious about the dosages other members who take Combi thyroid meds are on, how much T3 and T4 they take daily, and do you split doses

Tinnitus
I was diagnosed PV with positive Jak2 in November, 2022. Hydroxy and low dose aspirin has seemed to work for me. Good blood tests, only mild fatigue. But past few months, I developed a ringing in my ears and decided to have a hearing exam (at the urging of my PCP). It turns out that I have a condition

Blood collection device
Hi, I recently did a home blood test with Zoe. I was really dreading it as I thought it was a finger prick test, and I really don’t like that, fainted getting tested for gestational diabetes. However, it wasn’t a finger prick test. It was a thing you stick on your upper arm with a collection tube at

blood test results
I have been taking 2 grains a day and haven’t been feeling fatigued so I am happy on this dose. My only concern is that my vitamin levels have gone down and my TPOAb antibodies have gone up since my last blood test. I’m taking the same supplements and don’t think I’ve been doing anything differently

9dp5dt, no positive test result, period missed 6 days
It is 9th day after FET. On the day 7, I had a faint line on the pregnancy test, only in the morning urine. Today it is much more faint, almost impossible to see, instead of getting thicker line. I am using sensitive dipsticks which are able to capture 10mui. My period missed 6 days. My fever is between

after a stent…
This is for information only for those who may have a stent fitted recently or about to. It’s about side effects that can happen and why. I had a stent fitted to open up my LAD just before Christmas this year after being on a medical regime for 11 months. The procedure took about an hour rather
