Fluctuating liver enzyme results.
Hi, I had a blood test which came back with high GGT >400 and ALT >200 over two weeks ago. Had results from a blood test on Monday today and (thankfully) my GGT is down to 285 and my ALT is 74 which is great! I’m booked in for another blood test in 3 weeks time and I’m also waiting for an ultra sound

Trebuie anticoagulant
Hi! after a 24-hour holter, thousands of ventricular extrasystoles were detected. Because they are symptomatic (I have strong palpitations at night) I was prescribed beta-blockers and ACE inhibitors. Do I also need anticoagulants? I have a pacemaker, I had bradycardia, my heart is healthy, the mitral

Curious about my Mild fatty Liver score?
Hi Guys, I'd 'overdone' the old social drinking for many years, typically 30-40 units a week depending on what was on, some weeks of course within the normal recommended range. I turned 28, Jan of this year. After some worrying symptoms, I bit the bullet and got a set of blood tests - normal, followed

Chalazion after injection - how long should we leave it after shot before using hot compresses?
Hi guys, I had my lucentis shot last Tuesday (and a very scratchy shot it was too - my worst in two years). I have a repeated chalazion that comes up on the lid of that eye, and it's in the process of flaring now. Has anyone been given guidance on how long we should leave using microwavable compresses

Anyone tried Thorne or Seeking Health Adrenal Cortex Extracts
I had an online consult with a thyroid doctor a couple of days ago. He advised me to take adrenal cortex extract and recommended I take either Thorne ACE or Seeking Health ACE. I have never used anything like this before and am a bit nervous about it. I am wondering if anyone has tried these and can

New here!
I was referred here from a fb group. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism last year, I also have low adrenals. I assume those work together? I am wondering which doctor to choose next or just go it alone? I have had insomnia for about 12 years now. It gets especially bad around my monthly menses. I

Subconjunctival hemorrhage
I get a couple of these a year maybe. It’s a burst blood vessel in the eye. . I don’t believe it’s because I’ve rubbed my eye(?) but I guess I might have done so unknowingly. I think it’s more prevalent post cataract surgery a few years ago but again couldn’t swear to this. Just wondering if anybody

Vaccine
Feeling apprehensive now about having the jab when I get the notice. I had covid back in march/,April. Reading some of your reactions. I have the flu jab each year with no symptoms apart from sore arms. Fingers cross the vaccine will be the same. I was told none have a live thing in? I'm also not allowed
