my nails have completely changed shape, they were always really archy and now the nails are turning flat and some are curling over as they grow i have read that your nails say alot about your health, i have been having stomach problems when i eat, as soon as i eat certain ood y stomach immedately starts to burn, i only have trouble while im eating and them it settles down, i have had trouble in the past with low iton levels and also have 69 nodules on my thyroid, which i get 6monthly scans on as my aunty and cousin have both had thyroid cancer at a young age, im 43 , the specialist dont want to do anything anout my thyroid as my TSH IS still in the normal range, its 0.5 and the ultrasound says my nodules dont look suspicious , any ideas ??image

    Being perfectly honest I think this is one for your GP, reason I say that is because your GP is on top of your case already and rather than listen to others who may only speculate it would ease your mind to get the information from not only someone who knows your situation but someone who can help.

    I hope all goes well for you, Im sure your GP will help.

    My sincere regard, Dave

      THANKS, Unfortunately every Gp ive found i like keeps leaving , so now i dont have one, i always feel like they are in a hurry anyway and anything they suggest is a bandaid approach , i am focusing on better eating and ive lost 12kgs so hopefully this will help until i find a new doctor.

      I understand exactly what you mean, if you are in the Gosport area it is difficult we broke away from the Willow group to go to Brockhurst who are fantastic but do many have done that they had to close their books fir now.

      Keep trying, you can always check in with War Memorial I think.

      My kind regards, Dave
