Guest guest Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hi Steph, So why isn't your husband having a trial of thyroid hormones? If I was him I know what I would do.... I would trial them amd then report back to the doc if I felt better...... It the endo really a thyroid specialist or is he a pathalogical liar? You can check out his specialism by putting his name in www.drfosterhealth.co.uk or ..com can't remember which..... and then clicking on his name when it comes up will show the specialisms.... Are you taking bets about this endo x > > Just had to blow off steam! Endo said he was a thyroid specialist!! Knew it was too good to be true. > Luv Stephie > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Hi Well guess what? No thyroid specialists come up for our hospital, only name I recognise is down as a diabetes specialist. I did try hubbie with thyroxine a while ago and he felt no better but to be fair his iron was so low it probably would have done nothing for him. I did think I might try him again he has been taking NAX for a short time. Thanks Steph or is he a pathalogical liar?

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Hi Sheila He has been tested for his iron and last March his Ferritin was 19 range 22-322 and now 176 range 22-322 they told him he was top of the range and could not have any more for six months. He was on an iron infusion put in through a canula straight into the blood stream once a month for six months.
