Thyroid nodules and high TPO
Hi, I’ve been going through a lot this year and I still don’t know if I blame my liver or my thyroid or both. My liver came back as fatty and mildly enlarged in May but with a normal variation called Riedel’s lobe. My enzymes were all fine but just a tiny bit higher than the normal by like 3 points.

Hi everyone. I haven't posted in a while....just haven't been in the right head space and didn't want to come on here and lay my self distructive self defeitest attitude at everyone's doorsteps as you are all going through enough yourselves. So I'll try to remain calm and logical as I type. Lol Does

Frustrating Rheumatology appointment
Just had my first long awaited hospital appointment and now feel totally deflated and frustrated after a patronising consultation . Ever get the feeling they have made their mind up before you go through the door, it didnt help when she asked where I worked and told her I am a nurse working in the hospital

Does this look like a lupus rash?
Hello, I hope everyone is doing great! I've never had any symptoms (no hair loss, joint pains, fever, fatigue etc.) and I only showed positive ANA after a neurological irelevant blood test. My neurologist ordered ALL the antibodies (ENA, b2, ANCA, AMA etc.) and they are all negative. But he said I should

Lupus diagnosis Incorrect???
Hi guys, i came on here back in june to talk about how i was diagnosed with SLE with only a positive ana and clinical symptoms, my rheumatologist at the time said even if my further blood tests came back positive this is most likely the diagnosis since lupus can take forever to show in the blood work

New to lupus
I have been diagnosed with lupus Positive ANA double stranded DNA. Reading the posts on the site has scared me and I feel more anxious. Do you get better? It’s all seems so bad and frightening.

Hi everyone, I haven't been here for a while!
I've got about a year or so history of blood tests showing my thyroid levels not being quite right; I have been discharged by the endocrinology department and my GP has said she is unable to get me medication as it goes against NHS guidelines. My latest blood tests were: TSH 1.18 (range 0.27 - 4.2) T4
