I wondered what people’s thoughts were on my results really as he didn’t really say the severity of it just that he will give me an urgent referral and look out for symptoms of ‘
thyroid
storm
’ I’m a bit shaken up really as I never thought my bad stomach etc would lead to this result Please see below

Anticipated endo appointment 🤦♀️
Saw him for my graves disease, my T4 was 100 and his advice was just go back on anti
thyroid
drugs.. 🤦♀️ I was in hospital in
thyroid
storm
😠. So as you see.. I don't have much faith in either of them. If I can't stomach T4, T3... What would be the alternative???

Endo is recommending radioactive iodine
Because: - longer ATD treatment results in lower relapse rate - if my flare is cause by stress (likely, as am shielding) then I can address that - Graves' waxes and wanes and may resolve itself as it did last time - risk of

eye disease worsening with RAI - risk of

waiting for surgery
He said that if he try’s to operate I will bleed a lot or head straight into a
thyroid
storm
. They are giving me this iodine drink for two weeks before the surgery to block my thyroid functioning. Just waiting on a date now they said up to 8 weeks.

Which medicine is messing with my thyroid med uptake
Might anyone be able to suggest which of my other meds has affected my thyroid med uptake (100mcg thyroxine and 2x5mcg t3)? I was prescribed digoxin, furosemide and bisoprolol after having open heart surgery 3 mths ago to resolve some anatomical defects. Uptil that point thyroid levels were stable

Voice weak after thyroidectomy
I had a thyroidectomy 5 years ago and after surgery had a check on vocal cords which were fine. However my voice has recently become a bit weaker and I constantly have to cough to clear my throat. Is this normal so long after surgery?

Increasing armour thyroid
I was diagnosed with Hashimotos and put on armour. I’ve been taking 11/2 grains daily since May and don’t feel great. My most troubling symptoms were mental like low mood, brain fog etc. I ditched HRT in Feb as it was making me feel worse and worse. Would I be ok to try an increase to 2 grains (tablets
