Alarming Thyroid Test Results :(
Hi everyone, I'm new here, nice to meet you all 🥰 I am a bit scared because I received some alarming blood test results. Everything started a couple of months ago when I began experiencing severe episodes of itching all over my body. I went to see my doctor to investigate this issue, and they prescribed

Gallbladder removal with low platelets
I am in remission with CLL and now after a visit to A&E because of agonising pain they discovered Gallstones and want to remove my Gallbladder asap. My last blood test shows Platelet count - 130 10*9/L ......also low Haematocrit and Red blood cells. Does anybody know if this would be a problem

Just a quick update, Endo appointment đź‘ż
went to Royal Liverpool Endo dept , was hoping to see the consultant who is on TUK Uk list. Unfortunately this did not happen, the person I saw was less than helpful, see I can be tactful, sometimes. Introduced herself as diabetes consultant and she lived up to that name. The first thing she said

I was starting to feel a little better, then........
Following the advice given in reply to my first email 3 months ago and using all the knowledge I have learnt from the questions and answers in the blog, I spoke to my GP and she agreed that I should increase my Levo from 75mcg to 100mcg. She also suggested that I should try Magnesium in the evening

Too little Pred?

MY REMEDIES FOR MY RLS
I haven't been on this site very often in the past few months... work, life and other things going on but mostly because I finally settled in and started 100 mg of Gabapentin at night and this has helped tremendously. I know 300 mg is the start dosage but 100 mg takes care of 90% of my night symptoms

How rare is it to be diagnosed with PMR at age 45?
I am writing to ask advice from this excellent Forum which has been such a help to me in the 3 years since I was eventually diagnosed with PMR, having had a nightmare obtaining help and support due to Covid, lockdowns, lack of face to face appointments etc. My own journey remains a struggle, but I'm
