Guest guest Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hi Simone, First, you really should be concentrating on getting your Ferritin level boosted. Ferritin is your stored iron, and if this is low, you get all the symptoms of hypothyroidism, and it can actually cause hypothyroidism. You may be feeling you are hypothyroid because of your low level. Ask your GP to give you a trial of Ferrous Sulphate to build up your iron level, and if he refuses because he thinks your level is fine, then you can buy this at your local Chemist. You need 200 mgs daily to start with, and if you can tolerate it OK, then build it up to another 200 mgs. To stop you becoming constipated and to help you absorbe the iron, you also need to take high doses of Vitamin C. Take 1000 mgs with each Ferrous Sulphate you take. Having low ferritin is a cause of hair loss too, and it seems to be pointing to this problem as being the cause of your symptoms. Many people think that low ferritin means that you are anaemic, it doesn't. Low ferritin is stored iron, if it is low too long, your body is unable to cope without it and this is what causes the anaemia. I know you are confused and frustrated, and it will take some time to get your ferritin level to rise, but please be patient. Go to our Files, look up the one on low ferritin and eat plenty of the foods that are rich in iron. Plenty of red meat and other goodies. You do not need to be a vegetarian right now ;o).

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hi simone, Before taking the huge step of trying thyroid meds I'd look to getting the Iron a bit higher- low iron can cause tiredness. I know not everybody has all the symptoms but weight gain and heavy periods are very common Subject: Hi All, I am going to try Armour as have not felt well for 5 years..have never been on any meds but suspect low thyroid..my last tsh 1.9 and t3 and t4 in range..my menstrual cycle is 28 days and 5 days not heavy...weigh 55kg...my hair has thinned out alot and falls out..my ferritin in 36 when i last had it checked. Am i being too hasty in trying the armour or should i rather wait till i get my ferritin up...i am confused as don't know why i have a low ferritin could it be due to a low thyroid function or is the anaemia causing low thyroid function...very confused and frustrated...

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Hi, I wasn't here when you did that, but I've found a lot of useful information including accurate medical terminology and explanations at the Web site of the Mayo clinic, a nationally recognized institution. Let me see if I can find the primary link to their material about heart ailments. if you examine the links and the ext on that page, you can find your way to a lot of helpful and accurate information. if what you see on this page doesn't seem like what you're looking for at first, just click on links that look interesting and you'll find yourself on many informative pages of the site. The link of the heart failure page is: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/heart-failure/DS00061 Hi all, When I first found this site I believe I found a list of definitions for various terms used in relation to our conditions, but I can't find it again. Does anyone know where it is? Thanks.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 I have been out of touch for a while , I have had a lung infection for a little over a month. How are you all doing ?? I first got one when I went to the laundry mat. But not in my lungs, then a second at the laundry mat. Then the third hit my sinuses and my lungs. Got fever and all. First lung infection after the lung diseases. God Bless !! dragonflymcs Mayleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
