I’m freaking out
I’m freaking out because I just had a baby 3 months ago and I’m late 5 days on my monthly. I’ve taken 3 urine tests and they’re all negative. I cannot have another baby especially with my financials. I have 3 kids as it is and I’m 23. Yes I know what causes babies and I don’t need that lecture. My anxiety

Inflammatory Arthritis with Levothyroxine
Has anyone else had severe pains in their tendons and muscles due to Levothyroxine? 18 years ago I had an ESR blood test at my G.P.'s surgery as I had severe pains on Levothyroxine, this proved I had Inflammatory Arthritis, so I bought Armour Thyroid from the US as the only alternative at that time.

Help with blood test results, please.
I was diagnosed with B12 Deficiency with Pernicious Anemia in 2018. I was given the six loading doses and injections every 12 weeks. After about two years I was able to get them changed to every 8 weeks. Although that did seem to help I am still not feeling myself. I keep track of all of my blood

Vitamin and antibody blood test
I got my results back from my test I did on Monday. I’ve attached screen shots below. My ferritin has improved and my antibodies have always been 80 but they seem to have halved ! My vitamin d has also improved. Please can you have a look and see what you think ? And what are thyroglobulin antibodies

T3 side effects
Good morning, I have recently started T3 (around 7 weeks ago). I was prescribed 10mcg daily alongside 62.5mcg of Levo. After the first week I dropped the dose to 5mcg due to palpitations. I increased back up to 10mcg 3 weeks later. In the last couple of weeks I have been experiencing a lot of joint

Bad batch of B12
Hi I'm just adding to the posts about bad batches of B12 - there's been a couple in the last month. I have self-injected since 2020 - originally every other day, increased to every day after having Covid in July 2021. Taking control has felt miraculous as I have been able to return to full-time

Synacthen test results
Update on Synacthen test results from 26/4/24. Thought this may be of interest. 9.20 cortisol blood test - 220 (better than cortisol test on 26/3/24 - 131) Post Synacthen test bloods - 362 Below normal (420) but ok. Must stay on 3mg pred. Endocrinology nurse rang today (29/4 - so speedy) to discuss

Can an increase in thyroxine cause an upset tummy?
I was on 100mc of thyroxine for years. My GP decided to decrease my dose to 75 without any tests or discussion. When I left a message for her to tell her I felt less well on the lower dose she said to alternate 75 and 100 for three months, then get a blood test. Results showed my dose had to go back

Just having a bad day
April hasn't been a good month for me and synotoms. Been on only 50mcg levo since end of September. Only JUST this week got an increase to 75 thanks to the private bloods I did due to recommendations on this site. First I caught a sinus cold at the start of Easter break, which triggered a flare up

Blood test
I have an app with endocrinologist next week. I know he will want to take bloods so what should i do about my thyroxine . Normally if bloods were taken at 9 I d not take my tablet until after the test but my app isn’t until 1.30. Should I take my levo that day or not??

Notes for upcoming GP appointment
Apologies as this is a long read 🙃 I've got a GP appointment booked for 9th May, with a doctor I've not seen before and who is relatively new to the practice. I'm wanting to ask for a Rheumatology referral and have written the below out as a crib sheet for me to take in. I'd appreciate any thoughts

Hello all So after years of a tummy that reacted to certain foods, being diagnosed as gluten intolerant in 2016, really suffering in 2021 and 2022, following a FODMAP diet recommended by my doctor (don’t recommend) and getting to a point where I only ate the same plain things everyday, I finally paid

I’ve had hypothyroidism for 20 years +, I take 200mcg Thyroxine and 60mcg Liothyronine and have for the 20 years since I was diagnosed. My blood test results have always been similar (usually towards the top of the range, but that’s my normal) Last years blood test was more mid range. I don’t have any
