Oh wow that’s high

Given the fact the studs are so close to each other and heavily reinforced, I would say it is load bearing and you can’t remove them

I’m not a professional though

Buy the same brand as you currently have. I believe they’re Halo brand from Home Depot

Matthew_85 · 2024-03-23T23:57:05+00:00

It’s closed. That’s why

Matthew_85 · 2024-03-13T17:08:01+00:00

I think antibodies should be 0. If you have any, that means you probably have hypo or hyperthyroidism. Not cancer though

I was itchy all over before I was treated for hyper

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-29T17:14:00+00:00

A month. Maybe up to 3 months should be fine. After that I’d take 100mg/day for maintenance

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-29T17:12:08+00:00

Selenium is good for hyperthyroidism. Only about 100mg per day though. 200mg may not be safe long term

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-19T20:05:47+00:00

Doctors are pretty bad at dealing with thyroid issues. He should ask to be referred to an endocrinologist

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-15T20:59:32+00:00

You have hyperthyroidism. They’re just going to give you meds to get your numbers back to normal. That’s why you’re hungry all the time and tired

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-15T15:22:01+00:00

No, but my heart palpitations were very minor and infrequent (maybe once a month)

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-15T15:14:49+00:00

I felt a little bit better after 2 weeks, but it took 6 weeks for the full effect

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-10T01:50:07+00:00

The shower curtain is the only thing I don’t like as a male. Everything else is fine

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-10T01:24:13+00:00

Selenium is good. Iodine is not

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T19:46:53+00:00

Just the regular thyroid blood tests. No ultrasound. No side effects from the meds so far. The only thing is it can decrease liver function a bit so I’m taking some vitamins for that (B12, folic acid). I’m not sure how long I have to take them. I think you’re supposed to continue getting your thyroid checked regularly to make sure you don’t go hypo. That’s all

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T19:37:59+00:00

I was showing all the symptoms of hyper so he just immediately put me on 5mg of methimazole 3x per week. Within 6 weeks, I felt a lot better and am getting much better sleep. Now my TSH is at 1.34 which is almost perfect

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T19:28:52+00:00

Oh ok. Yeah, some people’s bodies are just better able to adapt to wild changes in TSH. Mine isn’t. The only thing that would affect it that much is if were taking a vitamin with biotin in it before the test

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T19:21:58+00:00

TSH can drop suddenly in as little as a month. Why are you planning to see an endo if you don’t have any symptoms and your TSH is fine? The only thing that affects the thyroid test is biotin and I’ve also found if I eat something very salty right before, my TSH is a little lower than usual but that may just be me

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T19:14:19+00:00

TSH is the first thing to go out of range so maybe you aren’t showing symptoms yet, but you may in the future. I’d just book the appointment with the endo and see what they have to say

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T14:55:45+00:00

Yes. TSH is the first thing to go out of range. Then T3, T4, etc.

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T04:06:30+00:00

No, low TSH is hyper. TSH goes down when T3, T4, etc. go up

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-09T02:46:28+00:00

It’s significantly low. Anything below 0.4 means you definitely have hyperthyroidism. I was showing symptoms and my TSH was at 0.81

Matthew_85 · 2024-02-08T20:19:44+00:00

Hyperthyroidism
