Hashimotos and Vitamin Deficiencies
She gave me the classic reply that I only needed tsh and said that only
parathyroid
conditions
cause vitamin deficiencies. I argued that my vitamin D when I first tested it (many years ago) was 10. So needed loading doses when last tested by nhs, even though I was self supplementing.

Has anyone any experience of alternatives? Bugleweed herb? Or motherwort for palpatations?
Hi everyone, normally would fit profile of hypo, always tired, cold, hard to lose weight etc so doc put symptoms down to perimenopause, but a suspected heart episode one night led me to ask for bloods.TSH 0.01, T4, 49 and hypercalcemia both serum and adjusted. Decided to pay for ultrasound, three 6mm

Help interpreting results
Hi, apologies for long post. I’m a 34yo female. I’ve had symptoms that line up with hypothyroid symptoms for years. Had a few tests when my eczema flared up really badly around 12 years ago, which coincides with the time that a lot of the symptoms began. Have had fatigue basically since catching Epstein-Barr

Possible over treatment with Levothyroxine
Hi everyone, I’m new to the site. It was suggested that I make a post following a comment I made replying to another post as I may benefit from some guidance on my current treatment. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid 9 years ago. I have been treated with Levothyroxine throughout. Since 2020

First DEXA shows osteopenia - hoping for some advice please
Hello everyone, this is my first post to Bone Health, but I have posted to other Healthunlocked forums recently as I’m trying to work through my various health issues. I’m in the UK and hoping to get some advice from those more experienced than me please. I paid privately for my first DEXA scan in April

Vitamin D and Anemia: Insights into an Emerging Association
Found an interesting study. The conclusion sold it for me. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4659411/ CONCLUSION Vitamin D is associated with anemia in various study populations and recent evidence suggests that the association may differ by race and is likely specific to anemia of inflammation

I am 72 years old and have been diagnosed with osteoporosis/osteoporotic (Iam not sure which as the report refers to both). The results of my tests and recommendations are as follows:- Indication: PTH Risk Factor: Excess alcohol, fractured wrist age 64, maternal hip fracture, Secondary Osteoporosis

Low PTH
Has anyone had low PTH levels? My last three months levels have been low and just now stopped Calcitrol on neph recommendation. My phosphorus and calcium are both within range so I'm not sure what's causing it. I see my primary doc on Mon and I'll ask her but was curious as to anyone else having this

First time on dialysis

So, this is my journal though my first time on dialysis. You can see the replies if you can get on the HealthUnlocked for Kidney Dialysis. I know

First dialysis.... not for a wuss
As I promised, I am going to document my journey as I have done before. Now it is hemodialysis. Holy mackerel.

Endo appointment, T3 results at last and hyperparathyroidism possible
Thanks for your replies to my previous post and also the advice that I should investigate hyperparathyroidism. I saw the endocrinologist today and apparently my July '23 results (which I hadn't been told, and certainly they'd never mentioned they'd do T3) were: TSH: 0.02 (0.27-4.2) T4: 20.5 (12-

Lab work
Got my labs yesterday and. Was happy to see how well they were. ALB is still low but coming up. Kt/v was 2.41 not sure how they do that on hemo but I’ll take it. Potassium and phosphorus are in range as is hemoglobin. My PTH was low so I need to stop the calciteol. Since my BP at dialysis on Thursday

Advice on halting bone loss following Dexa and hrt or other supplements.
Thyroid cancer at 23, high dose T4 requiring propranolol for 17 years, then battles over dosage post menopause as rules changed. T3, when measured, always seemed to be at a good level. I didn't take HRT as it was at the height of the cancer scare. I regret it now. Sjogrens and very low vitamin D diagnosed
