PMR & Cellulitis
Hi, some of you may remember that I posted a while back asking for tips to cope with long haul flights. Well, I arrived in Australia 6 weeks ago and didn’t have any problems after the flights, I just took an extra dose of Pred as suggested. However, two weeks ago I developed cellulitis in my left leg

Hydroxycarbamide Dose
I am just wondering if anyone else has experienced Hydroxy not working as well after a time? I have been only taking it for 2 years now and all seems to have been going well until a couple of months ago when my platelets started to rise again. I have had another visit to consultant today and they are

Blood test timing
Hi all you clever folks out there, I’ve upped my medication of liquid thyroxine in the last few months from 50 to 75mcg. I did it without GP’s consent but I was feeling so hypo and tired and although my last blood test results were within range (TSH 2.35), I knew an increase would help. I was going to

Advice re. Churchill hospital
Can anyone who attends the Churchill hospital in Oxford give me a little guidance please. I have been referred to haematology there and have an appointment in late May. I will have to drive to get there (a round trip of about 70 miles) and I understand that parking there is pretty hellish. So if anyone

More Challenges to Overcome!
Some of you may recall that for some years, I've frequently experienced ectopic beats. They've been calmed down with a lowish dose of a beta blocker (Propranolol) and don't usually give me too much cause for concern......until about a week ago when they re-emerged, but with a different manifestation

Looking for IVF experienced Endocrinologist
Hi lovely people, After my 6th unsuccessful transfer and 3rd with donor embryos, I have decided to include an endocrinologist who can help maintain Thyroid levels before and during transfer. In the last cycle despite increasing the dose of Levothyroxine, my TSH jumped from 2.4 to 3.4 on day of transfer

First Private Blood Test
This is my first post to this excellent website, and I hope someone can help me understand my first private blood test - fasting, last levothyroxine 26 hours previously. No B12 supplement for three weeks prior to the test. I did find it difficult to get sufficient blood, this being my second attempt

I am very fortunate that I can pop down to P.A. Society Head Quarters to lend a hand. I did this morning. There are 4 volunteers helping the small amount of staff run the organisation . The person there today was inundated when I rocked up. As they are everyday. We could talk for weeks but I said, ‘No

Cholestyramine
My husband has had explosive diarrhea since mid February. After blood tests, stool samples, colonoscopy, and more stool samples, they are not able to determine what is causing the diarrhea. The doctor has prescribed Cholestyramine. Has anyone had experience with this medication and did it help?

What's considered the best time to take a blood test, to check levels?
Hi there, general query, but wondered what the best routine/time is to take a blood test to check thyroid levels. I've usually taken my own tests in the morning about 9.30am, but I've always done this after taking my thyroid meds at 7am that same morning. Having read a few messages on here, I'm beginning

If my blood test show I have no inflammation, could this explain why Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) did not work for me?

Results. Advice please.
Hello, I have my recent blood test results as follows: FT4 <1.3pmoL/L 10.8 -25.5 TSH 0.09mIU/L 0.27-4.2 FT3 5.2pmol/L 3.1-6.8 I am still really hypo. Could this just be down to low vitamins and minerals.

Endocrine Nurse appointment but no plan in place plus weight loss
Hi everyone It's me again. I hope you are all doing ok. Last time I posted I was feeling really unwell on my dose of T3 but had an upcoming appointment on 6th March. On the day it was a different Endocrine Nurse who I didn't know & was difficult to understand due to her accent but basically told me
