New private blood results contradict the ones from gps. Shall I tell doctor?
Hello, I just got the results from the blood tests I did in Italy while visiting my family, 10 days after the ones I posted about recently were done. I did these tests because I like to know what my T3 is, but also I have an appointment booked in December with a private endo also in Italy who is trained

Started suffering severe nightime " gerd " at night which interfered with sleeping over a year ago. Endoscopy showed small hernia and inflamed esophagus. Symptoms were manageable although PPI's didn't really help. For the last two months these symptoms have now presented themselves persistently and

Can I take Iron tablets with a ferritin level of 40 (range 13.0 - 150.0)?
Hello, I feel very tired and breathless, struggle with memory and concentration and need to sleep a lot. I was prescribed Ferrous Sulphate last year when my Ferritin was 25 (range was 10-284), so I doubt the doctor would prescribe again as it looks better also given the different range. I am already

Long term Abscess
Hi Everyone, I have an abscess on the left cheek of my posterior (bottom), close to the middle and just above the bottom on my spine. it has been quite large and sore, measuring 5cm x 1cm. It is hard, deep and red but without an external point. By using magnesium sulphate I have managed to "rupture"

MRIs are over 😊
They started at 8:45 and were over by 11:10. I get my MRIs done at the doctor's office. He claims his machine is one of the strongest in the US and he doesn't offer music since it's so loud. The man doing the MRIs started with the brain, then c. spine, t. spine. Next came the contrast. Back to t.spine
