This is no longer available to people living in the USA. I have tried 3 different sellers today and none will ship here anymore. I know I'm new here, but thought I would pass this information along.
This is dire at least for me. PDT works best, the synths not at all. Having to resort to bovine now. This is absolutely not optimal and I'm sick to my stomach.
My Tsh has been elevated since last December but this past July it's 3.51 , I feel horrible my Doctor wants to put me on a low dose med 13 mcg , I haven't started yet I have lower iron , but I wanted to know if anybody has this and meds help? The fatigue is brutal! I know I can be hit with a double whammy from the lower iron
Too , but can sub clinical Thyroid cause you to feel so bad? I freeze all the time! Dry skin hair falling , the tiredness is the worse! I can't function, but the highest was 5.22
Also I have muscle pain
Hi, I’m 24F and recently had thyroid tests because of neck swelling. My blood test results were:
TSH: 0.002 (0.27–4.2)
FT3: 6.94 (2.0–4.2)
FT4: 2.1 (0.9–1.75)
My thyroid ultrasound showed an enlarged left thyroid with increased echogenicity and normal vascularity, while the right side was described as avascular. No nodules or focal abnormalities were found. There was one right cervical lymph node (1.3 × 0.6 cm). The radiologist's impression was “thyroiditis with associated right cervical lymphadenopathy.” However, the doctor I visited said I have hyperthyroidism and he prescribed Methimazole 10 mg, and I haven't had a TRAb/TSI test, so I don't know whether I have Graves' disease. My question is, does this sound more like Graves' or thyroiditis, and does prescribing Methimazole make sense given the ultrasound findings? Should I ask for other investigations before continuing treatment or just take the meds for now? He says we'll do another blood test after a month of taking the medication. Please advise.
For context: Got diagnosed with hypothyroidism in May, been medicates since.
I've been feeling better and more healthy than ever since I got my 50 microgram dose of Levothyroxine.
However, lately I've had heart palpitations, headaches, heat intolerance plus anxiety and extreme fatigue lately.
I got nervous something was wrong with my thyroid again, so I got a blood test done.
I'm a 23 y/o woman, my TSH is 0,8 mlE/l (used to be 4) and my t4 is 20,3 pmol/L (used to be 15).
I talked to my doctor today, explaining my symptoms and discussing the blood test result.
According to her, everything looks fine and it's nothing I should worry about - "probably something else". Lowering my dose was not relevant either.
Sure, that might be true. But I'm really worried about it. :/
I also have TPO antibodies and celiac disease, if that could affect it.
I'm sorry for asking here, but I don't know where to turn. My doctor doesn't listen, and I've been denied help from the endocrinologist.
Just after some opinions. My TSH is 6.7, T3 and T4 are within normal ranges. I have been losing a lot of hair, my whole eyebrows have thinned, heart palpitations and some other symptoms. I’m aware this is subclinical. I’ve been to two different doctors (in Australia) and neither are willing to treat as they say those symptoms could be caused from a number of different things.
I’ve had other blood work done and all is fine. I am going to get an antibody test even though I had one 15 years ago and it was negative. Both doctors have told me this is unlikely to change. Do you think this is something I should be treated for? (Note: I had hypothyroidism in pregnancy as well and was treated). My iron levels are ok I think. Ferritin is 40. Thank you 🤩
Thank you
My five month old got his tsh tests done and his tsh is 6.4 and his ft4 is 1.2. The doctor said that his tsh is lower than before (it was higher than 6.4 before. I don’t have the exact number) but the doctor has said that gets gotten lower so he suggests to do another test in a few weeks or so to see if it gets to normal range. I’m so worried Cuz I’ve heard hypothyroidism in infants can delay development, and I don’t really want that.
Thyroid and late period — is this normal?
I was diagnosed with a thyroid problem 4 months ago after missing my period and have been on medication since then. My last 3 cycles came monthly, but my cycle changed from 36 to 34 days.
This month, I’m 6 days late with no cramps or signs of my period coming.
Could this be related to my thyroid even though my periods were regular for the last 3 months? Has anyone experienced this?
Does anyone else experience PVCs? Has it been linked to your hypothyroidism? I’m experiencing them and the cardiologist is referring me to an Electrophysiologist (EP). They have prescribed a beta blocker for me to treat the PVCs. I’m not crazy about the side effects. I wonder if the PVCs will get better once my TSH is back in normal range? Anyone have experience with this? Thank you!
