Recent medichecks results
Wow! Did medichecks test and for the first time in all the time I’ve been testing my TGAb were in normal range (110 with range under 115). TPOAb within range as usual. TSH is still suppressed (no surprise) CRP is .983 despite me having been a bit under the weather recently and recovering from a broken

T3 supplier
Hi does anyone know of a good T3 supplier? My usual one seems to have been out of stock for a while now and I’m panicking that I won’t be able to get anymore. My health will decline rapidly! Happy to be personally messaged as I know suppliers aren’t to be mentioned. TIA you lovely people

Followed advice here, now need help with understanding results
Hi, I’ve learned more here in the last year or so than I’ve ever learned from doctors. I’ve also come to know that I’ve probably been on too low of a Synthroid dosage for far too long. I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s since 2005 or 2006. I had a goiter on my parathyroid and had surgery to remove

Private specialist recommendation?
I’m not sure if this is allowed? I’m looking for a private Lupus specialist in the Gloucestershire / Wales area. Is there anyone that can be recommended? Despite positive ANA & ANCA my gp says she won’t refer me because other tests were ok and I saw one a few years ago that diagnosed fibromyalgia. Most

Take the sertraline or not?
I’m not doing so well and have nobody to talk to who knows about this stuff. After ongoing problems, the dr has now given me Sertraline. I’m not convinced as I’m sure the whole problem is my thyroid (mentioned before on here, looks like I’m not converting well). I’m seeing a private Endo in three

Hi I had a 24hr Holter test in December and found results on my NHS app. This showed 5 pauses from over 3 to 7.13 seconds and a second degree heart block type ll mainly 2:1 conduction. I have had twinges in my left chest and palpations for months. Put on delophine XL and twinges stopped after 3 weeks
