Hi & welcome! I thought it might be nice to have a "community chat" thread here. We all seem to rub elbows here quite a bit, but not enough to really get to know each other. I live in British Columbia, Canada. Just found out that I had hypothyroidism in April, and found this forum extremely helpful to answer the questions…

I know I know---it sounds like it doesn't even go together. Having HYPER thyroid and not being able to lose weight but even worse - continually gaining. My endocrinologist insists my levels are good and it is not my thyroid. Anyone else having or had this issue and have any good advice?
What kind of doctor or care provider does one diagnosed with thyroid disease use for treatment? I’m generally curious what the majority of the public does and who they see. I personally was first diagnosed by my family physician D.O. Then I moved to a specialist an Endocrinologist. Now I find myself thinking maybe I should…

Does anyone else have hashimoto's? I always thought I was just hypothyroid but it turns out I have the autoimmune disorder. I've been looking up diets beneficial to hashi's and found that something similar to Keto is very effective. I've been doing this for a little over a week now and losing weight has been a LOT easier!

Passed away in February 2020 and With the travel and no time for meal prep and taking care of her I put some of the weight back on. Then COVID hit and the rest said hey…

I eliminated GLUTEN- I miss bread so badly and sugar and dairy and only lost 7pounds the first week and since then 0. Now I'm on week 4....…

TSH-High sensitivity - 2.53 T4 free- non dialysis - 1.4 T3 free - non dialysis - 2.3 A1c hemoglobin with eAg- 5.5%/111 She didn’t check…
I am on 112 of levo and that has really helped me. I think I forgot my dose this morning for the first time ever, and by 2-3PM I was having major vertigo and dizziness. From what I have read, I don't know if this is because I missed my dose, or if something else is going on. Does anyone have any experience with missed…
