Help with blood test results and symptoms please
Hi, I have hashimotos, and had a hemithyroidectomy just before Xmas. Before the operation I had been described as sub-clinical hypothyroid, with a TSH of around 2. Since the operation I been suffering from pins and needles and a feeling of slight breathlessness, which mostly comes on in the evening

weight, diet and statins?
currently down to 5mg, generally chugging along ok, still working, but feeling occasional fatigue so assume I’m getting towards my own adrenals firing back up. Unfortunately I’ve put on about 25lbs over the last 15 months or so 😠 so looking to maybe start trying to lose some. About 3-4 years ago

starting t3, t4 combination
Hi, I am hoping to benefit from the experience of others before me. I am currently on 125 mcg Levothyroxine. I will be starting a trial of t3 and t4 combined next week. The consultant is prescribing 75mcg Levo and 10 mcg Liothyronine. She said it would be fine to start on new doses straight away.

New blood test results
Hi all, Please see my first results 6 weeks after introducing T3. I'm on 125mcg of levo and 10mcg of lio. I am very confused because I was certain that my current symptoms were due to being undermedicated! And how can my T4 be top of range again despite me reducing my levo and introducing T3. TSH 0.007

Anyone Know About Silent Reflux
Following on from my experience of asthma flare up I'm wondering if like Cade in his post about breathing problems whilst exercising, if I could have silent reflux. It was shortness of breath that led me to seek medical treatment, and even though I had no wheezing or cough the hospital concluded it was

Indigestion
I have a dull ache down my breastbone which comes and goes. Although I have a mild heart murmur it has been diagnosed as gastric related and I’ve been given Lansoprazole to try. I’m concerned as one of the side effects is osteoporosis of the hip - I already have osteopenia. Is this type of issue linked
