Liver Function and Bisoprolol.
I am in permanent AF and it does seem reasonably well controlled with 7.5mg of bisoprolol and a pacemaker. My blood test results for liver function have been relatively normal but for raised tryglicerides for which I am prescribed Pravastatin and Omacor concentrated fish oil tables. Liver function tests

Hey everyone🙋, So, I've been having some discomfort in my liver area, some nausea too, and back ache. Yesterday I reached over in bed to grab my tablet and wowsa!!

Liver tests all high
I have had my gallbladder removed 20+ years ago. I got my blood tests from my pho last week and my alk phos was 175, my GGT 222, my alt and ast were elevated. I have no liver disease symptoms. I drink 3-4 drinks a week. What is it?

B12 deficiency, injections and blood test results
Hello, I wondered whether there's anyone out there with knowledge of B12 deficiency? I've been feeling rubbish with loads of strange symptoms for at least a couple of years. My ferritin is always lowish - hovering around 15-18 ug/L. My folate was 11 ug/L in January, 10 in June and now 9.

Herbal Remedies for Depression/Anxiety?
I've always been wary of pharmaceutical drugs, and heard a lot of good things about St. John's Wort and Ashwagandha, and am wondering if others have had success with theses alternative health remedies? Side effects? I have tried Ashwagandha, and felt less anxious taking it, but it is costly.

Test results for Thyroid
Hi, I was having a bunch of symptoms that may be thyroid related and the doctor ordered some tests and I need help in determining what they mean. I had numerous other types of blood work done but these are the ones I believe are strictly Thyroid. The list over the last few days: PROTHROMBIN TIME Oct

Mild rant, may have gone in a circle
Called endo and she honored my request for an Ft3 test so I got it done yesterday and hope to get a better picture of t3 situation. I havent recently seen the functional med doc and have stopped all supplements due to my stomach issues. I could see there was quite a difference, infact my b12 is still

Your Medication And Supplements
Earlier this week there was a post where the issue related to the addition of turmeric as a supplement when taking anticoagulants. Interestingly around the weekend I got send a link from my old university (was one of the top polytechnics at the time) about a recent piece of research about taking supplements

Erythromyalgia or something else/more? Mast Cell Activation Disorder?
Bit of history first - I've had Reynaud's since a young girl. No other issues related to anything rheumatalogical other than intermittent ulcers rarely until a few years ago. All of a sudden in the middle of winter whenever I'd hop into bed with the heated blanket on my feet would get burning hot, bright

Inconclusive results for connective tissue disorder
Hello all, I was recently given an initial diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome after being hospitalized with a second pulmonary embolism since 2015. The first PE was seemingly “unprovoked” but massive, requiring a 4-day hospital stay in an “acute care” unit. I recovered from that incident quite rapidly

Medichecks blood results - still unsure what's causing symptoms.
Hi everyone. I received my Medichecks results yesterday and am none the wiser about what the root cause of my symptoms might be. I now understand how some people feel disappointed when they get normal blood results as we are desperate to get a diagnosis. I'll list my results and would welcome any comments
