signatera increase
has anyone doing the signatera testing (ctDNA blood analysis) had a small increase? I was 0 or negative for the past year, but most recent blood test shows 0.03. They said it's too small to really analyze, but I don't like it. We will redraw blood in a few weeks. I know this new science for us with MBC

Hashimoto’s or Graves’ symptoms or…? Help to clarify please.
Hi everybody! I’m new here. Would be very grateful for your advice. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 17 years ago. It was in different country not in the UK. I have never been on medication as I was told if my T4 level is ok I don’t need any pills. I’m now in UK for about 5 years. I’ve never seen endocrinologist

scaring of the heart
Hi 😊😊 I had emergency surgery for perforated bowel Dec 22. I was in hospital for 8 weeks. There were many complications but I’m still here. I had an ICD fitted, this because I had 2 cardiac arrests 🙈. I’ve had many scans and MRI and they found scaring on my heart ❤️ I’ve had genetics blood test

However, I had had my thyroxine before appointment . My question is how will this have affected my results? I had TSH,

more of Dr. Jones' '2 minutes versions'
from Dr Jones' book - Cholestyramine (Questran) is the first line treatment for the itching. If this doesn't work, then taking Rifampicin is the next line of therapy. Even when this is effective, it can make the liver worse. It is very important to check liver function tests after taking Rifampicin

GCA and strokes
Last Wednesday I had a telephone Drs appointment about my blood test results. In among I happened to mention I had had a feeling on my left side of both my leg and arm similar to eleven years ago when I started with GCA and also had a TIA. As a result I was given an appointment to visit another doctor

Feeling like something stuck in my throat on swallowing - any thoughts please
Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone else had experienced the same thing ? I guess it is down to some issue in my thyroid - but there are no visual lumps externally, just this weird sensation on swallowing. It started in March . Three weeks ago I have had annual bloods by GP and as my TSH is suppressed

Bloating and thyroxine hormone absorption
Would bloating of the digestive system after some liquid medication I have been given for an infection affect the T4 tablet absorbtion? I am also avoiding lactose and have noticed an improvement in the absorption but I have not managed gluten at the moment due to trying to recover. I know T4 is absorbed

Since my menopause I feel like my T3 is needing upped. Any advice on my recent blood tests?
My t.s.h was sitting at about 7.9 and I'm not feeling at my optimal. Usually my T.s.h is in between 2.5 -4.5 ish. Since menopause and getting older I feel I definitely need an upped dose! Any advice from those with t3 experience. My T4 is low at 4ish and my t3 is high because of my treatment at 8ish

Cancelled Blood Test
My 3 monthly blood test was cancelled due to the cyber attack at Guy’s Hospital. I am currently on 11mg Pred and 15mg Methotrexate once a week. I am told that blood tests will not be able to be resumed for another month. This would mean a 4 month gap between tests, also I will be on holiday in July
