Hard to believe hashimoto-diagnosis :(
donuthole replied to chocoholic's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Supplementation with iodine is a very bad idea if you have thyroid antibodies. (I don't remember, did you say you were deficient?)

You can read more about iodine here: https://thyroidpharmacist.com/articles/iodine-hashimotos/ Thyroid antibodies don't change quickly ... -
Hard to believe hashimoto-diagnosis :(

I'd recommend you check out the facebook group for Hashimoto's (https://www.facebook.com/groups/hashimotos411). They have a ton of resources and guides, and you can search through other people's questions. Since your TPO is above normal range you have Hashi's but it may not be active at this point in time (or it is active but not enough tissue has been destroyed... -

In any case, as Scott says it doesn't matter for practical purposes. I'll mention something else here for the records in case someone finds this useful some day: I had a celiac panel ordered...

Update: The diagnosis was indeed celiac disease. (I also specifically asked whether he had considered distinguishing between celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity.)

Thanks, yeah, I was just fishing for some more information with respect to the two options given my blood/endoscopy results. The doc had recommended I go on a gluten-free diet till our next appointment. I did. On day 7 when I woke up the symptoms were suddenly just gone, for the first time (my biggest symptoms have been fatigue and tingling/heaviness...

Hi folks, I managed to get an endoscopy (!) in these hard times after some setbacks due to the covid situation. I'm struggling to understand my results. Is there any way to tell if this is "early celiac" or "non-celiac gluten sensitivity"? (I'm ~30 and I got some sort of virus a year ago and was really sick with diarrhea and gastritis, I suspect that...
