Radioactive iodine treatment
I have had hyperthyroidism for over two years now and my Endocrinologist wants me to have Radioactive Iodine because i might have low white blood cells seems to me not a good reason to have RAI which usually results in having Hypothyroidism (which most do) is a bad idea anyone else had the same dilemma

Iodine in Food
Hey guys, I've been trying to cut out gluten, soy and dairy and up protein and fibre, I eat a lot of prawns, tuna and eggs, but I've just seen that iodine could be bad for thyroid issues - are these things people add to the 'avoid' list? I'd have to totally rehaul my diet again!

Allergic reaction no.3. Advice please.
Over a period of years, I’ve had one Avastin, and many Lucentis and latterly Eylea injections. Both eyes are now treated. The injection procedure itself is usually ok, but on 3 occasions the after effects have been agonising. I hesitate to use the word agony, because I don’t want to upset anyone and

High Iodine content in NI milk?
Came across this study published March 2018, on iodine levels in Irish schoolgirls, with new research suggesting this population is sufficient. Iodine content within milk was studied and appears to be very high? Can this be correct? https://www.safefood.eu/SafeFood/media/SafeFoodLibrary/Documents/Publications

Contradictory advice
Hello Over the past few years I've moved for work so changed endocrinologists, each one offering different advice. Does anyone know of a good specialist (toxic goitre) in the north of England? I'm really concerned that the current one is pushing RAI as I can't find enough information to make an informed

PA testing
Hi there, I saw an endocrinologist last summer and in his letter to my gp said he thought I may have a second autoimmune disease by definition as my b12 levels were low. I had Graves’ disease treated with Radio iodine in the past. He didn’t say which autoimmune disease but I’m assuming PA. is there a

Clinical Utility of TSH Receptor Antibodies (TRAb)
Incredible piece for those with Graves https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3667257/ Copyright © 2013 by The Endocrine Society 1. In patients on methimazole, a positive TRAb is helpful in suggesting that it is not yet time to stop the medication. 2. TRAb tests are also used in the prediction

It's weekly chat time! 25th February - 3rd March 😊 😊 😊
I got sidetracked yesterday evening watching Mountain: Life at the Extreme on BBC2, would recommend if only for the bits about Mira Rai (though the other elements were very good too!). That's her there in the picture, she's a Nepalese ultra runner. Here's some blurb I lazily copied and pasted: [i]Mira

Odd symptom - concerned
Hi, I'm new here! Anyone have dairy alternatives? I've recently started to get hot flashes, especially at night. Been reading up about comparisons between dairy and non dairy for nutritional content; all non dairy alternatives are usually fortified with calcium and B12 (in the UK as standard) but not

Drops to dilate the eyes
Hi all, just wondered if anyone has had a reaction to the drops they use for dilating the eye? I seem to have a very painful reaction and my eyes went very red, couldn’t see to find my seat in the clinic too well, following this I can hardly tolerate the lights they use to examine my eyes. Later feeling

Problems taking Levothyroxine
This is my first post and I need help! To cut a long story short, I had RAI treatment for a multi nodular goitre in March 2018 and by July 2018 my TSH was 5.2 so the Endo passed me on to the care of my Doctor suggesting I started levothyroxine 50mgs as I was symptomatic. Eventually rising to 100 mgs
