About Me

I am a 26 year old guy who suffers with Hypothyroidsism, I am not getting the treatment I need off the NHS and Im sick and tired of being fobbed off!! If you have not felt well since starting a thyroid replacement then this is the place for you! I want to make everyone an "expert patient" and make the Doctors understand they dont know everything! We need the correct treatment and we deserve to get it too! If you would like to Email me, please feel free, I like talking to people with Thyroid disease. Ric@Thyroidhelp.org

Happy new year guys!! Im not doing as well as I had hoped my fatigue is back and my weight has increased bad news!!!

Im thinking that the multi vitamins might have something to do with this as they have Iodine in them which can have an affect on the Meds. So I have had some bloods done to see how my progress is, and I have now stopped the multi vitamins.

Ive upped my Armour from 2 and half grains to 3 grains to how it goes. I will get my blood results back maybe this week maybe early next week. Ive had my Cholesteral checked and also my B12 checked as if these are to low this also causes fatigue. Im sure the results will be interesting! Hehe!

12 days till I see Professor Franklyn the Thyroid specialist, I have heard she is not pro anything other than Thyroxine so Im sure I will have something to say about that. I will be telling her that I disagree with her practice and I would urge her to accept that us sufferers know our own body and our concerns and symptoms should be her number one priority!
I will let you all know how I get on anyways!!
