Thyroid private blood tests - new company
Hi - A couple weeks ago someone posted a new company offering thyroid tests that have blood drawing clinics in London and is very reasonably priced. I have just had an unfortunate experience with Medichecks as the clinic I chose in London had no appointments for over a month. I am being issued a refund

I’ve been taking 200mg of thyroxine for most of my adult life. Now the doctors have reduced to 150mg I returned to the doctors to say I felt awful. All my symptoms were returning. So they issued another blood test. They have came back saying my TSH level is too low and reduced my dose even more.

Low phosphate levels linked to hypothyroidism?
Hi all, I am under close monitoring for my kidneys by a renal consultant. I had severe acute kidney injury (AKI) caused by sepsis last year and am very slowly improving. At my recent six monthly blood test, my phosphate levels had dropped and they are now below range. The trend for this has been dropping

Graves - blood test
I bit the bullet and have messaged the GP this morning and requested a blood test ... I'll wait and see if they'll allow it. I realised whilst crying AGAIN in the shower this morning that something was very wrong, as I was struggling to get up again this morning, unable to go for my usual walk and crying

Low salt levels
Is there a private thyroid blood test recognised by the NHS because my GP will only test for TSH. I had quite a heated discussion with him but he still said it wasn't necessary!! I went to see the GP because of itching on my arms and torso . I think this is quite common with thyroid problems ?Also has

GP App
so I had an echocardiogram in February and they said if I don’t hear anything they will review me in 12 months re my AF with a view to discharging me. This sounded great and I haven’t heard anything. However, I’ve just gone on my GP app tonight to check a blood test and I couldn’t believe my eyes when

Bruising
Sudden bruising on legs and arms. Blood test is ok but I still have this. It can be an effect of levothyroxine?

Statins/Eczema/Psoriasis/Itching
I've been on 40mg Atorvastatin since my HA in May 2021. Last November I noticed I was doing a lot more itching. Had a blood test, my bilirubin and ALT levels were raised. Whilst trying to sort that out, I noticed u was breaking out in blotches/red spots and what look like small fungal patches. My GP

TSH and freet4 levels
Hi what does TSH level 4.73 and free T4 level 8.8 mean? I have been struggling for years with tiredness (I also have fibromyalgia). This tiredness is different. I'm struggling with it now. Achieving very little. Every time I have a blood test, which is not often cause I get told everything fine, no

Blood test interpretation
Hallo everyone, I requested a blood test to cover a number of things - not sure this one covers everything or maybe there's more to come. I wonder if anyone might be willing or have the time to help with interpretation. ESR looks OK - I requested CRP as well but doesn't appear to be there unless I

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
