General Question re positive test lines
If you do a test on test day for fet and it were to say you were pregnant are the lines supposed to continue to get darker? Should you keep testing or just wait and do a hcg blood test? As I'm guessing how strong/diluted your urine is will also have impact on the darkness of the line? At what point would

First Rheumy Visit, Lymphocyte/Neutrophil
Luckily, my rheumatologist was one I saw while in the hospital. She listened, explained, and answered questions. She is treating me for GSA even though my biopsy was negative. I am currently on 40 mg of prednisone. I am still very fatigued, legs are heavy and weak, arms weak, some pain in right temple

got tested
hello, today I got following tests, ast, alt, bilirubin, ggt, leuktocytes, hemoglobin and all were normal now . then I assume that my so-called symptoms are not due to decompensated liver cirrhosis.. or how were your blood tests at diagnosis/symptoms (fatigue, spider nevi)(?) ☀️☀️

Has anyone had a Jak2 Blood Test for blood disorders?
Hi I've had high Platelets for years about 20 at least on every blood test. GP always just said your Platelets are high but we know that! rheumy often mentioned it too. Recently I have been seen in Endocrinology (in a different hospital to my rheumatology team) & been having regular blood tests since

What's happening?
Trying Thyroid s for the last few weeks. Started off at half a tablet a day for about 2 weeks and then increased to 1 tablet a day. New blood test have shown liver doesn't seem to like it. Alanine transaminase 75 (range 0-34). Alkaline phosphatase 159 (range 30-130). TSH now 0.08 was 3.71, free T3 4.9

T3 only and feeling a bit desperate
I have been taking T3 only for a handful of years now and for a couple of them on a LCHF diet I was happy enough. I lost weight, and felt good. In October 2020 I restarted HRT (I still had/have) hot flushes, but within 2 months I had started to gain weight and on balance I thought that I would rather

High dose Pred side effects
Hi I’m afraid I need some advice again please. Having been diagnosed with PMR over 2 years ago, I was down to 4mg Pred although looking back I was in a lot of pain around the neck, shoulders and upper arms. I just put up with it as I wanted to get off meds. Anyway then I became aware of scalp tenderness

Is this subclinical hyperthyroidism?
I recently had a blood test which showed that my TSH was 0.27mU/L (0.35.5.5) and T4 was 11.3pmol (10-20). I'm waiting to hear back from my doctor, but does this show that there's potentially an issue with my thyroid? This is all new to me so I would appreciate some help, thank you.

Hypocellular bone marrow. Can anyone tell me more?
I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency ("low serum B12") over 15 years ago when debilitating exhaustion was putting my job at risk. Doctors assumed diet related because I was usually vegan at home but still ate meat and fish two or three times a week. I am diary intolerant with eczema (but crave custard

Should I stop Ferrous Fumarate before Blood Test?
Hi, I was prescribed Ferrous Fumarate after my last bloods showed very low in ferritin levels (I'm Hashi's). I'm due my follow up routine blood test for thyroid levels and ferritin / iron next week. Do I need to stop taking the Ferrous Fumarate ahead of the blood test? Thanks so much
