Endocrinologist recommendations in/near West Sussex for Addison's / adrenals
Can anybody recommend an endocrinologist in West Sussex or nearby please who knows about adrenals and Addison's? It comes as no surprise to me, but a private blood screen has just shown very low cortisol levels and a couple of other bits, that suggest an adrenal problem, possibly Addison's. I've not

Morning, sorry for the long post :) I am new on here and awaiting an appointment from Rheumatology after some blood results. My doctor suggested Rheumatoid arthritis however indicated it could possibly be Lupus. Also bloods showed kidney function is abnormal but not too concerning. So for context

sharing a Hot Tub ok with Lupus
Hi I’ve had Lupus for 30+ years now diagnosed with Hasimoto 6yrs ago. Read somewhere a long time ago thatLupus suffered should avoid a shared Hot tub due to our immune system compromised. Is that correct do you think?

my daughter has Underactive thyroid she is taking 50mg Levothyroxine. She is extremely tired all the time, she has put a lot of weight on even though she has a healthy diet, I thought that she would benefit from seeing a private endocrinologist instead of her own doctor who will not increase her dosage

for 16 years now (hashimoto, RA and recently also diagnosed with systemic sclerosis and polymyositis), who has told me about this.

How much T3 to take for underactive thyroid
am looking for some advice. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 2 years ago and put on levothyroxin by the GP, gradually going up to 150mg. I found myself still exhausted and putting on weight despite a strict diet and exercise regime. So after some research, I bought T3 from an Internet Pharmacy and

Just diagnosed
Hi all. I have just been diagnosed with fibromyalgia along with Tendinopathy(bit like tendonitis) having previously been suspected to have Rheumatoid Arthritis. This new diagnosis makes more sense. Would the Fibromyalgia have come on recently, or could I have had it for years and not realised? I've always

anyone else UCTD?
hey all! So I’ve almost arrived at the final diagnosis after spending a week in the hospital surrounded by specialists and looks like it’ll be UCTD. The reason is my labs all point towards Scleroderma but my symptoms say Lupus and they assumed Lupus for a year now, but never popped positive on AntiDsDna
