My folate deficiency merry-go-round.
Each time it happens, l complain to my GP that l feel exhausted, he runs
blood
tests
and it is always low folate causing the issue. In between, it is low vitamin D. 😒 This time l also have elevated AST (liver enzymes) and wonder if the two are connected.

Latest blood tests after Levo reduction. Any thoughts?
These were my previous results on 100mcg Levo TSH - 0.011 (0.27-4.2) Free T4 - 21.6 (12-22) (96%) Free T3 - 5.8 (3.1-6.8) ((73%) I’ve changed to 100mcg 3 times a week 75mcg 4 days a week. New results after 8 weeks are TSH 1.62 (0.27-4.2) Free T4 15 (12-22) Free T3 3.7 (3.1-6.8) Ferritin 391

Bicuspid valve and hospital stay.

blood

. Ct came back negative. Basically dismissed told to rest take paracetamol. In the next couple of days felt so ill. Went back to hospital. This time I was admitted to coronary care unit.

Care for GCA reverting to GP from Rheumy?
In common with most surgeries it is virtually impossible to get an appointment with a GP and while I don't really rate the consultant I am at least in a system which provides some informed structure and

Need more info on related symptoms
Blood
tests
showed no infection but after it persisted my URO gave me a round of Cipro which after the whole dose seemed to work. But after a week or so the symptoms returned. Tall Allen said these may never go away. Does anyone else have similar problems? Or treatments?

A very unwelcome visitor
I managed to see my GP and, in addition to organising
blood
tests
and an ECG, he has referred me back to the hospital for an event recorder. I am so disappointed with this turn of events and wondered if others have had similar experiences? Is this just a blip or is AF back to stay?

Anyone turn down a stem cell transplant?
Neither Dr will/can say what changes in the
blood
tests
, which seem stable, or BMBs would indicate a need to move to get the SCT sooner rather than later. My gut feeling is that I don't want the SCT even though I know the outcome will not be good.

worries
I was convinced I would be put on the second line of treatment today but instead they want me to have
blood
tests
to check my kidneys and do not think it’s a UTI as it tested clear for leukocytes and nitrates. Any idea what could be going on? What could the blood test show?

NHS blood tests
Hi, I know thyroid UK guidelines following a change in medication are
blood
tests
6-8 weeks later. I’ve requested a
blood
test from my 6 weeks GP following a change in my levo and T3 added and been told that the lab wouldn’t accept this until 3 months.

Advice on referred blood tests
As per my recent post, a GP (not my usual) is on the band wagon to reduce my levothyroxine due to a suppressed TSH. This became suppressed a few years ago when I tried T3, although I've always been towards the top of range (until now it seems) and it made no difference, so I stopped it. My usual GP

High cholesterol while on Ibrance and Letrozole.
So I'll be having some extra
blood
work done at my next
blood
tests
in a few days to check cholesterol and sugar levels again. I'm worried that I'll have to change my treatments...which are working well in every way apart from the cholesterol.
