Good evening, i started off with a very overactive thyroid which was great weight wise but the specialist at the hospital was worried about the risk of heart attack so put me on a high dose of medication to push it to under-active, while this was happening i gained about 5 stone in about 6 months, was put on propylyhiouracil to help keep it under-active as i am allergic to the carbimazole medication. I was getting to the point where my thyroid was balanced and the doctors decided to stop my medication and my thyroid went haywire again. Waiting to see the specialist on the 23rd of this month to see what is going to happen. I am pleased to say i have lost 4 stone of the weight i have gained and slowly trying to get back on track to loose the rest.
Good luck ladies xx
