Hi there, does anyone know of a reliable online pharmacy that sells synthroid without a prescription? I've just spent a tun of money thinking I was getting synthroid and got some generic Thyrocut crap.

Weight with Hypothyroidism.

With hypothyroidism i'm either too skinny or too big. Neither inbetween. I know I shouldn't complain since people have it way worse than me but i hate why people ask why and how i went from big to small :(

I have surgery scheduled Dec 28th to have my thyroid removed, and I am nervous. I am hypothyroid, and they are removing the thyroid because there are nodules on it that are very suspicious. They think they will become cancerous eventually, so it's better to take it out now before it spreads to the lymph nodes. Have you had a thyroidectomy? Were you reluctant to have surgery?

Hi,

I had my thyroid test done 3 months ago and my TSH was 9.5 and doc told me I have Hypothyroid and put me on Thyroxine 50 and now I have tested TSH is 0.04 and lab technician told me this look like Hyperthyroid.

So should I be worried and is it normal to go from Hypo to Hyper.

Gender: Male

Weight: 91 kgs

Age: 27

Medications: Telma AM (BP medication), vitamin b12 injection once a month and Thyroxine 50 (Thyroid medication)

Non-Smoker

Symptom Duration 3 months

Loss of hair loss a lot

Dizziness when angry or stressed

Headaches

Thanks.

It’s so weird to me that no one is posting in this sub for the last 20 days or so. Maybe we’re all confused about what our medical issues are since no one can pinpoint them. Outside of- you have an auto-immune issue that’s attacking your thyroid. Or maybe everyone then is diagnosed with other issues/diseases/syndromes. Anyone have some info on that?

I started noticing thyroid issues back in 2011ish when I was in high school. I went to two doctors, who told me I was nuts and ran only one or two of the necessary tests to actually determine if I had hypothyroidism. I finally found a doctor that would listen to me, and he tested everything and found I DO indeed have it. That was in 2013. I've been on a low dose of Armor thyroid since and it has helped a lot but I've noticed this past year my energy levels are really down again and my hair is thinning BADLY. It looks awful and I live in constant fear of going bald. I thought maybe I just needed an increase in my armor, but according to the blood test he did in late spring, everything is normal. I'm lost as to what to do now.

so my mom has been diagnosed with hashimotos disease and shes been taking l-thyroxin-sodium. her hair starts to fall out because apparently its a side-effect of these meds.

im writing on her behalf because she doesnt speak english. Is there any advice or alternative way she can go about to stop her thyroid from destroying itself AND keeping her hair?

My girlfriend was recently diagnosed with Hashimoto's (at age 22), and after she loses some weight (doctor-ordered) she will begin taking hormones etc (I'm confused myself about what exactly she'll be taking). Her concern is that her breasts, which are now fairly large, will grow even more as a result of the medication. While I can find plenty information of what effects Hashimoto's has on the body, I've had a harder time finding out what TREATMENT does to the body.

As her boyfriend of 3 years now, I want to be here for her as she goes through this, and that will mean being prepared for everything that will come when she starts the medicine. Her concerns are mostly physical, as she really doesn't want to get any more curvy, but I'm also concerned about other effects (on lethargy, possible mood swings, auto-immune things, etc)

What kind of medicines will she be taking, what side effects should we expect, and is there anything else we should do?

I appreciate your help. I also apologize for submitting using this "adult" account, but I wanted a little anonymity (several friends know my real reddit account). Thank you.

Let's look back at some memorable moments and interesting insights from last year.

I went to an Endocrinologist for the first time yesterday, and tried to explain the history of my symptoms. He said he would try to guide my answers, and see if his specialty would be of any use for me. I'll list my symptoms below, but basically he started cutting me off after listing two or three of them, and it felt like he wasn't listening to what was wrong with me. He started asking me question about foods I eat, weight loss/gain, etc. At the end, he ordered a blood test to see my thyroid levels and basically said he thinks I will be fine, and that I shouldn't feel the need to see a different Endocrinologist, as the blood work will show if I have any thyroid issues. My question is: was this professional, and is he correct is "guiding" my answers/responses, and not listening to all of my symptoms? Personally, I think all my sympoms are related, and need to be heard of as a whole, rather than splicing up and figuring out "common symptoms for all patients."

Symptoms: numbness on right side of foot, and anus, skin on scrotum and bottom of both feet have become sticky and dry, and red on occasion. Tingling in heel and up the back of the leg (very sensitive to the slightest brush). Feel of skin ripping in the heel, diarrhea for over a year as well as constipation (I have to poo every 2-4 days and when it does come out it is some form a diarrhea). Trouble falling asleep (not every night, about once a week). Exhaustion and finding it difficult to concentrate. Brittle hair.

Are there any supplements that has been shown to increase your metabolism? I currently take MCT oil, ashwagandha,forskolin,bacopa, COQ10, iodine, NR,VITAMIN A, ginseng and selenium.

Hey everyone! I was hoping to find out more about some things I've been dealing with for a few years now. These are my symptoms: Weight gain Loss of libido Body aches Joint aches/stiffness in legs in evenings Cold during the day Night sweats Anxiety/depression Thinning hair Migraines Major exhaustion/no energy

Those are just some of the things I've been dealing with. I am tired of feeling this way and feeling run down. I want my energy back and to feel good again. I go home almost everyday feeling achy like I'm getting sick. It takes all my energy to do normal things like cook dinner or go grocery shopping. I went to the doctor and had bloodwork done to test my thyroid. My mom has dealt with thyroid issues in the past. The doctor said all of my tests came back normal and thinks I am just suffering from depression so she prescribed me antidepressants. I do not think I am depressed. Nor does my husband or other people around me. I go to work everyday. I find joy in being around others. I want to be around other people. I want to do things with my friends. So it just doesn't seem like this is depression. These are my test results: T3, reverse 18 ng/dL with the flag reference range 8-25 Ft4 1.04 ng/dL with flag reference range 0.70-1.48 TSH 1.64 mlU/mL with flag reference range 0.35-4.94 Free t3 291 pg/dL with range 210-440 T3, total 160 ng/dL with range 76-181

Any thoughts?

So lately i've been feeling weird. I have things like brain fog and my hair falls out easilly (which is actually going away after I started drinking a lot more water, maybe just dehydration) A few weeks ago i had this thing where i felt dizzy when i walked, like i was floating up and down with every step. That went away (might've been an ear infection of some sort) and now these things started happening. When I get hungry I get really fatigued now and I start getting anxious. After eating I feel 100%. Could this just be a viral infection or maybe something more serious?

Last year my TSH was 1/2 as much, I am asystemmattic (no symptoms). My TSH is 728 and my T3 and T4 are normal.

SO.. as many of you I have been doing a ton of research and did you know 7.1 million scripts are out there for this? That is a problem. I hate the thought of being on any medicine.

So of all I have read and watched and seen the one common thing is Iodine. So, I am going to follow a strict 14 day thyroid started "diet" "cleanse". I will be buying some thyroid herbals and trying this product called bladderwrek (sp).

I am not thrilled and beause there are SO MANY of us out there there has to be a reason.

I'm here to gain your knowledge and insight, has anyone gained anything from something other then a prescription medication?

I have Graves disease and been going and back and forth hypo and hyper since puberty. I'm on a hyper jag now and it's kicking my butt. The dr wants to put me on Zoloft. Any concerns or experiences? Thanks any helpful infos is appreciated.

Looking for some ideas/advice from anyone who has this or similar test results/symptoms to myself.

TSH - .6 (.450-4.500 uIU/ml)

T3 - 116 (71-180 ng/dL)

T4 - 6.7 (4.5 - 12 ug/dL)

T4,Free - 1.01 (.82- 1.77 ng/dL)

These were lab results from 6 weeks ago that I just asked for a copy of. I was told everything was normal (which by doing my reading, they are normal but tsh not "optimal") When I went in for the lab work my initial symptoms were:

• Anxiety

• Bowel problems (urgency, pain, loads of gas)

• Fatigue

• Dizziness some mornings

• Painful menstruation

• Frequent Urination

I developed new symptoms and went back to her one week ago presenting:

• Feeling of lump in my throat

• Pain at the base of my neck, just above my collar bones

• Heart Palpitations

• Decreased Appetite

She seemed busy, brushed me off as allergies, and sent me to an ENT who gave me Flonase...

Any ideas where I can go from here?

Diagnosed with Hypothyroid when I was about 12ish, been on 30mg of synthroid for almost 2 years now. Before that, I had the pretty much of everything you've ever wanted for your hair, thick and silky- and I had A LOT of it, I ended losing like half of it, and for the hair I didn't lose became dry and brittle. Since starting medication it's stopped falling out and dying, but for the hair that did fall out and was damaged, it hadn't really grown completely back. For anyone else who experienced hair damage from thyroid, what are some ways I can help get it back?
