Atorvastatin and liver function
Blood tests for liver function 3 weeks ago showed slightly elevated
ALT
and high GGT levels. My previous GGT
test
was about 20 months ago and the level then was normal. Liver blood tests were repeated yesterday and my ALT level has doubled to 152 and GGT increased by 50% to 245.

Surgeon in Liverpool as requested thyroid bloods and thyroid antibodies 🤗
Hi everyone ❤️ Just posting this, as some members who have been following my struggle with thyroid medication these past 4 years, I decided to discontinue the T4 teva, the silly endo put me back on after taking me off the t3 which was not working due to gastric issues, forgetting also that teva t4 did

Low ferritin again
Unsurprisingly my ferritin has fallen back to the very bottom of the range yet again after i ceased iron supplements back in march. Raised a call with the surgery this morning and within 6 minutes of raising the call online it had been closed by the enhanced care practitioner as saying no action required

0.27 - 4.2 R 2.4 mIU/L FREE T3 3.1 - 6.8 R 3.7 pmol/L FREE THYROXINE 12 - 22 R 12.6 pmol/L How do you convert your results into a percentage of the total range please? I thought you took the top of the range figure as 100% then worked out 1% then multiplied by the result but I don’t think

Long time reader / first time poster…
Hello all, Been on here for quite some time reading about other men’s stories but have yet to get in the trenches until now. Not sure why; maybe just reluctance to accept my situation, even though my “situation” has fully accepted me. It’s been a bumpy road. PSA 12.5 at diagnosis 11/2019. Been checking

Sensitive - How long does it take to get a negative pregnancy test after miscarriage?
Hi all, I took medication for a miscarriage on Dec 23rd (due to a empty 3cm sac). I was told the hcg pregnancy test should be negative 3 weeks after, which will be Saturday. I took the HCG test this morning and the test line is still almost as dark as the control. I was expecting the test to be negative

Iron Deficiency and Iron Deficiency Anemia: Potential Risk Factors in Bone Loss
Members are likely all too familiar with patients being told that they are suffering osteopenia or osteoporosis due to having too much thyroid hormone. And, especially, too much T3. While it is important to realise that there is a case to be made regarding excess thyroid hormone, it is just as important

Infertility and endo options
Currently starting second round of IVF (x2 embryos in round 1 with x1 negative pregnancy test and x1 embryo left frozen) with endo still on uterosacral ligaments, pelvis and bowel vaginal wall. Been trying to find consistent & clear guidance whether to have remaining endo removed before further embryo

Levo being reduced, but feeling under medicated.
Hi, I would greatly appreciate some input on my test results! I have been hypothyroid for over 17 years, and have always adhered unquestioningly to the doctor’s guidance, assuming that they were doing all they could. Having found this site, however, I am starting to wonder if there is more that can

Goitre and antibodies but bloods all fine
Hi, I developed a fairly big lump in my neck in July 23. Did the 2 week wait thing and had an ultrasound and saw an ENT consultant. They diagnosed a thyroid nodule and said it looked normal with no need for FNA. Consultant asked for endo to see me and I am still waiting for this or any acknowledgment

I’ve posted many times in the last ten years since our 29 year old son sustained a severe brain injury in a car crash. At this time in 2013 he was still in intensive care and, although out of his induced coma, he was showing very few signs of movement. For months we had no idea what kind of future he

Do low PSA-producing cells still rely on testosterone to grow?
Am curious to know what the folks here know about this question. If higher PSA cells are driven to near extinction by ADT, and if only low-PSA producing cells survive, are the latter still dependent on testosterone for survival? If not, what do they depend on to grow?
