Please could somebody help me decipher my blood results.
I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2011 and I now take 75mg of Thyroxine and 40mg T3 liothyrinine. I feel quite well at the moment apart from achy feet and unable to lose weight! sometimes lightheadedness and breathlessness! I have just moved to Australia and just had my first blood test here and the

More information on diagnosis trickling in....
I called my doctor, while I wait for my tests this week to see how strong my AMA titre was. It was 1:160. I googled and it said anything over 1:40 is considered high and strongly indicates, with my ALK phos and GGT levels PBC. No surprise there, I guess. I really don't want to have a biopsy, but

Have been to see endo to-day. Waste of time!
Never saw the Dr I was told I'd see. Got the same old chat, your TSH is fine, your B12 is in range.All my results were good and " in range "Asked if I was depressed, I said ,no , and again told him the symptons I have. He said he will write to my Dr. Probably say why did you send this crazy 67 year

Hello. On diagnosis trail-live in the US
Hello I haven't been definitively diagnosed yet, but my alk phos is high, GGT is high and I am AMA positive. Just looking for some support here. I know that this is in the UK, but our medical treatments for PBC are similar. I am mostly asymptomatic, I have some fatigue and some tenderness on my right

Would really appreciate some feedback on my most recent bloods before Endo app on Wed. Thanks in advance. *All input welcome*
I was diagnosed with 'florid' or 'rampant' Graves Disease in January 2012. I had a T4 of 47 and high antibodies for both TRAB and TPO. The private Endo that I saw said "hmm, I'm diagnosing Graves but we'll have to keep an eye on those TPO antibodies". I had no idea what he meant at the time. I was

Is being diagnosed with lupus anticoagulant the same as ALS/Hughes?
Is lupus anticoagulant a component of
ALS
, or are the two terms one in the same?

Is this being misunderstood?
This can, in turn, result in a diagnosis of a mimic such as Lupus, MS,
ALS
, RA, and others and possibly incorrect treatment. I've seen a LOT of stories where the original diagnosis of Lupus, after further testing, was actually Lyme which is a perfectly curable disease if caught early.

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose,.......
Its medical name is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (
ALS
), but in the USA it is frequently referred as Lou Gehrig's disease (after a great baseball player who contracted the disease).

Just want to have a moan
I asked her if it was
ALS
she said no, still ok. Tuesday freaked out phoned an online doctor who said he didn't think it was
ALS
but perhaps I needed more tests (typical American). Felt slightly better.
