Private blood test confusion!
Hi, If someone doesn't mind helping I'd really appreciate it. Sorry if this is a question only I can answer but I'm so confused and it's stressing me out. I'm looking into private tests and trying to find the cheapest way of getting everything I need. But I'm not quite sure what that is. I'm petrified

Private test confusion
Hi, If someone doesn't mind helping I'd really appreciate it. I'm looking into private tests and trying to find the cheapest way of getting everything I need. But I'm not quite sure what that is. I'm petrified of needles so looking at finger pricks and my gp can't test certain things like t4 and t3 so

Inflammatory or Rheumatoid Arthritis ?
Hello everyone, I had my first appointment with my rheumatologist at the hospital last Monday. She was very nice and prescribed 'Sulfasalazine' and I also had a blood test to see if I had 'the rheumatoid factor'. I thought she said I will see you in 6 months....but today (thursday) I had another appointment

Hi all, Thanks for this group. I have had severe digestive issues for 10 years since getting food poisoning and developing SIBO (small intestinal bacteria overgrowth). Apparently my B12 was not being absorbed due to the antibody being produced which stops the intrinsic factor using the B12. I often

Doctor appointment
Hi following my post saying I have Hashimotos and needing a raise in dose etc. I have seen my GP this afternoon. She has agreed to a raise in dose provided that my TSH remains in range. I have also been told I have tested positive for intrinsic factor antibodies and I have been prescribed folic acid,

Blood tests
Hi, I'm looking for some help with interpreting my blood test results. I feel that everything is being looked at separately and no connections are being made. I had Laryngeal cancer last year and was treated with radical radiotherapy, my treatment finished in January 2016. I was diagnosed hypothyroid

Blood Test Advice please
Hello, So I got my private intrinsic factor antibodies test results back today (in case anyone has not read my previous results, I decided to go down this route after waiting since November for ones ordered by my GP - not his fault, think it's the lab being funny for some reason). Came back as negative

Doctor is too afraid to prescribe thyroxine
Just had an appointment with new doctor. Otherwise very lovely lady, was easy to talk with her and she didn't turn me down. She said she would back up CFS if nothing else shows up. She is too afraid to start levo trial as some of doctors over here Finland still think they will lose their license if

Pernicious Anaemia tests skewed by B12 shots?
Hello everybody, I have decided to go privately to be tested for pernicious anaemia. Not very happy with the cost, esp as I decided to do a full thyroid test. I have Hashimoto and they only test TSH. I am sure my GP is not going to approve the tests and I can't go through another battle! I had about

PMR and Ra

My B12 levels have decreased significantly, but why?
Hello everyone. I'm a 19 year old male. Not too long ago my blood test showed RF latex test > 450, which I have read indicates advanced disease. I've read a bit about rheumatoid arthritis and diseases associated with rheumatoid factor, but none, I think, match how I'm feeling. I don't think I have RA

Any help!!!
Just filling in the dreaded PIP forms. I've had a car for nearly 30 years which I think I'll loose but fingers crossed. Any how. Got some paperwork off my GP and a few interesting things I've noticed on them. I was sent to a Rheumatoid Doctor in July 2015. On the letter it says that my ESR was raised

Does this sound like Sjorgens? I do NOT have dry eyes nor a dry mouth. Is that common?
