Please help me - my latest tests have come back as - serum ferritin 160.7 - ug/L ref range (13-150) - B12 298 ng/L ref range (191-663) - RDW 11.5 ref range (00-14) - CRP 7.6 ref range (0-5) - GGT 53 Iu/L ref range (up to 40) - Lactate dehydrogenase 233 Iu/L (135 - 214) - Uric Acid 465 umol/L ref range (140 - 360) - Cholesterol 5.53 mmol/L ref range (00 - 5.2 - Triglycerides 1.89mmol/L ref range (2.26) - free T4 13.0 pmol/L ref range (12 - 22) - free T3 4.6 pmol/L ref range (3.1 - 6.8) and this is just a few of my results. I have Fibromyalgia --osteoarthritis, cervical spondylitis - gall bladder removed and one kidney and adrenal gland removed (doctors neglect) diverticulitis - IBS - Thyroid nodule on left side - fatty liver - enlarged spleen - just had my lungs washed out because i have ground glass in them, but have been discharged from the hospital - i have asthma - glaucoma - constipation - numbness in hands and bad cramps in my body - headaches and migraines - no body hair and not much on my head - brittle/flaking nails - continuous runny nose - very dry itchy skin and head - my arms feet and legs are so painful it is hard to walk and any pressure on my toe nails is so very painful. I am on a very limited diet of liquids as i cannot swallow very well due to the lump in my throat and i cannot eat fruit or vegetables nor dairy and bread as i get so bloated and my stomach hurts so much - also my stools have been very pale and bloody. I have shown all my tests to my doctor and told her my symptoms and she tells me i am okay - is it because i am too old for them to bother with. I am a pensioner. Please some one tell me i am not crazy. Sorry for the long list.

Any one who is aware of the day to day reality cannot be crazy.Only when one is removed from reality,he or she becomes neuritic or psychotic.I believe strongly that you are not one of them.You do have quite a few health problems which is a norm for all people as one advances in age.Follow your doctor's advise and do whatever little exercise you can manage.Most of your readings are with in range.You can still improve with better diet management.

What is your age by the way,i do not understand,the meanings what you want to convey,you seems to be all right.Keep faith in Almighty.

Hi there, i do not see what my age has to do with any thing, i wanted to know if i was Hypothyroid as all my tests were privately done and i was given to understand that a lot of the results needed attention, but i did not get the answer i needed, so thank you for your reply. Christy

Numbness is due to high sugar; In the absence of gall bladder, detection of diabetes in normal test is difficult. when gall bladder is removed, T2DM is diagnosed by OGTT only. Sincerely, I believe there is one common remedy for all your problems. Issues are many but problem is one. No way we can solve all problems individually; there is integrated solution available as food.

Hi, not quite sure what you were trying to say to me, but i would not take prozac or any kind of antidepressant, that is what my doctor wants me to do, so i am sorry that i did not understand what you were saying. Thank you. Christy.

Thank you to all who sent me a message, but i really only understood one of them, so i did not get the help that i was hoping to receive with the interpretation of my private test results.

I wish you all good health and hope that someone can get some straight answers on here.

God bless you all.

Christy.

As his most symptoms are aggravating during movement , for this he can try homoeopathic medicine bryonia 30 4 globules three times a day and for longer period. I further suggest u to see a homoe consultant.

Yes you are confused,no body can tell you remidies unless he or she your age range,are you diabtic if yes from how many years,the sympoms you have mentioned cannot be cured above 75-80 years,thanks

Hi there, i am not diabetic and never have been, but in the tests they said i am at risk of becoming type 2 diabetic, i am sixty three years old and what little i do eat is very healthy as i cannot eat much because of the lump in my throat will not allow me to swallow so i have soup most of the time, a little porridge and fat free yoghurts and i have never liked take away meals or fast foods, i do not drink or smoke and i do not use any oil or fat in anything, i cannot eat fruit as it brings my mouth up in very sore hives and most vegetables either upset my diverticulitis or my IBS and they give me very bad GERD, i also do not have bread,cakes,biscuits or sweets of any kind, i do have a very limited diet. I do try to exercise but being disabled i have to limit what i do as i have osteoarthrits and brittle bones. Since having my gall bladder removed i have suffered with my stomach and bowel very much, but as i said before my G P will not help me all she says is take antidepressants and i say no, so there is not much i can do. Thank you for your reply. God bless you. Christy.

Please do not loose heart,you are bravelady,Thanks to God in which ever condition he has kept you,try to contact another doctor for your treatment of lump,God bless you
