Hi you lovely lot I don’t post much but really appreciate the knowledge and expertise shown on this site. I read all posts and research as much as I possibly can to manage my condition. So, I’m currently on 100mcg levo prescribed by GP somewhat reluctantly. I was taking 125mcg for a while as I thought

Lung volume test
My appointment for my Feno test finally arrived on Friday but I didn't know that it included a whole range of other tests too including a lung volume test. I didn't realise how badly my respiratory failure back in April had affected me but as soon as they closed the door of the compartment I felt sheer

FEV1 rapid decline
I bought one of these portable spirometers which measures FEV1 and shows results on digital display. The results vary but the best indicates a 10% decline on figure from physician’s PFT 9 months ago. Definitely using the device correctly. Anyone tried these machines? I’m hoping the figures are inaccurate

Questions for Endocrinologist
Today is the day, I am finally seeing an endocrinologist. Any suggestions of things to ask? Trying to be optimistic about the appointment but quietly cautious. Below are the questions I have so far: - FT3 measurement to ensure adequate conversion - Pregnancy monitoring and appropriate FT4 and TSH levels

I was told my next sputum test would be 4 weeks after my first day of medication... seems like a long time?

low cortisol
hello, I’ve repeatedly had lowish 9am cortisol (around 250ish mark) but passed SST. However, private endo has said he wants to trial a low dose of hydrocortisone to see if it helps my symptoms of chronic fatigue, headaches, muscle aches etc. etc. I’m nervous to trial a steroid when I don’t have Addison

Persistent cough and possible asthma diagnosis
Hello. I’m new here and keen to find out if other people with asthma have experienced the symptoms I have. I have had a persistent cough for about 4 months. Generally I feel a pressure in my chest and lower throat where it feels like a can’t breath. I then cough as this feels like it relieves the pressure

Curious about PBC symptoms and LFTs at Diagnosis
Hello Everyone, I am new to the group and I was recently diagnosed with PBC and I was wondering if anyone could share what symptoms they might have been experiencing when they first were diagnosed with PBC. I know from doing some research, that "intense" itching is mentioned as well as elevated LFTs

Does anyone take a diuretic to help with water retention?
I have for many years suffered from painful water retention in my buttocks and legs. I am also unable to pinch the skin on my upper arms. Ive recently been prescribed a diuretic to see if this will help. Do others have a similar issue? Or is it a sign that I’m still under medicated? My legs are painful
