Who else takes selenium ?
Hi I have recently had thyroid antibodys tested and results have come back raised. Just had selenium blood test done and doctor suggested taking 200mcg abselen selenium. How well have this worked for other users and what does it help with altogether ?

Blood test
I have an app with endocrinologist next week. I know he will want to take bloods so what should i do about my thyroxine . Normally if bloods were taken at 9 I d not take my tablet until after the test but my app isn’t until 1.30. Should I take my levo that day or not??

Private Blood tests
Hiya. New to the forum, as was diagnosed with graves last week. I've done some research, and want to get various bloods done ( probably Blue Horizon, which seems to be pretty good??) My question is, amongst the plethora of tests to choose from, which ones are best. I definitely want the vitamin one,

Notes for upcoming GP appointment
Apologies as this is a long read 🙃 I've got a GP appointment booked for 9th May, with a doctor I've not seen before and who is relatively new to the practice. I'm wanting to ask for a Rheumatology referral and have written the below out as a crib sheet for me to take in. I'd appreciate any thoughts

Is nmCRPC potentially curable?
I would appreciate any input on this. I searched the internet and found this article from Fred Saad: Treatment of nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: focus on second-generation androgen receptor inhibitors https://www.nature.com/articles/s41391-020-00310-3 I couldn't find anything

Levo Brands/NICE guidelines
TT two years’ ago from being hypER with goitre. Now on 125mgs Accord Levo. Various ‘symptoms’ but apart from weight gain my main concerns are breathlessness/balance issues/food sensitivities. An interesting consult with my gp this morning and I would like to see what comments the forum might

cardiac ablation good experience
hi everyone, I have just had my cardiac catheter ablation for my ventricular ectopic beats ( I have a very high ectopic load) It has gone well and I was really well looked after by the team . In case anyone is waiting for their ablation thought it might be helpful to share my experience. In my case

I am a 74-year-old woman living in New Zealand. I was on Ropinirole for restless legs for approximately 3 years. Augmentation set in and I saw his forum went to my doctor who has changed my medication to Pregabalin. Currently on 50mg per day as I weaned off Ropinirole (completely weaned off for 3 nights

Devastated
I went to my first three month blood test today. I am at Rai 0. I feel great. My WBC and Lymphocytes doubled in 3 months. I am starting V and O on Monday. I am pissed and scared. I had 3 months on Wait and Watch. Chronic was supposed to mean 3 years or 10 years before treatment. My wife and I are driving

Advice Needed
I’ve had hypothyroidism for 20 years +, I take 200mcg Thyroxine and 60mcg Liothyronine and have for the 20 years since I was diagnosed. My blood test results have always been similar (usually towards the top of the range, but that’s my normal) Last years blood test was more mid range. I don’t have any

low HCG result - am I out?
We are 12dp5dt. OTD was 24/4 with a faint positive, that afternoon I started spotting. It has been on and off since then, mostly pinkish in colour. I had a beta blood test this morning which has come back at 31. The nurse said she can’t say yet whether this is a chemical or not. Is this it? Am I out?

Incidence of Large Vessel Vasculitis in late diagnosis of PMR
When I read members’ experiences of prompt PMR diagnoses I’m truly pleased for them but I have to admit to feeling a degree of envy. My diagnosis arrived ‘only’ five months after onset of symptoms; I say ‘only’ because I know that for others the wait was far, far longer: PMRpro, for example, was without
