Inflammatory arthritis & pulmonary embolisms?
After years of x-rays on multiple joints (looking for osteoarthritis) & countless blood tests (looking for rheumatoid factor) - all of which returned negative results - I was finally diagnosed with Seronegative Inflammatory Arthritis in January. My Rheumatologist first tried methotrexate and then leflunomide

For those people who worry about stopping their anticoagulant for medical procedures in case they have a stroke maybe my experience might reassure them. All drugs have a half life so the amount of time you have to stop before a procedure is calculated taking this into account. For the "bans" it is

RUX for PV?
I have been on run for a few months now. Blood tests are down, perfect right now. Still fatigued though. Ears ringing like crazy but thankful. Anyone else with polycythemia have diarrhea? I am thankful for this drug, but want to feel better

raise ca125
hey , I had the ca125 blood tests and results came back at 57. Have my scan tomorrow. I am a mum of 3 young children and I’m terrified that it will be something sinister. I was on my period when I had the blood test and when I asked my Gp she said a period shouldn’t affect the results however I’ve

TSH, blood tests, weight gain - I am in the dark
Good morning fellow members! I have hypothyroidism and have suffered with it for about 2 and a half years. Until April of this month I was not advised to have regular blood tests.

Re Blood tests
I am under the care of nuclear team as having RAI treatment after papillary cancer n Thyroidectomy. I read various posts here and am now mystified and concerned.

My first results after beginning 5mcg T3. Is my FT4 & FT3 too high now?
Hello again, please could I ask for your thoughts on my new blood test (Blue Horizon Thyroid Bronze). 6 weeks ago I started taking 5mcg T3 once a day (via Roseway Labs) alongside my usual 75mcg Levothyroxine as my FT3 was on the low side. (I’m 67, only been hypothyroid for 18 months) Blood was

You were right, of course, Dorset Lady!
I upped the dosage back to 1 mg yesterday and felt way better. I emailed my primary care doc (I think you there refer to this one as a GP) who immediately said I need a slower taper just as you said, to go with what my body is telling me. I'm lucky to have him since the rheum seems to think the adrenals

I have not written on the form for a while but would like your thoughts on the following: On Sunday night and all day Monday I had chest pain especially when breathing in, and both shoulders and upper back were sore. It was still very painful on Tuesday so I phoned GP and was told as it was chest pains

hyper/hypo now normal?
Hi all, I have posted previously about being diagnosed hyperthyroid and started on Carbimazole, this was stopped due to persistent neutropenia, then i swung to hypothyroid and now 7 weeks later I’ve had another blood test and everything’s normal! I feel like I’ve been on a rollercoaster ride and thrown
