truly scrumptious
My surgery are doing
Blood
tests
to check for for diabetes, possibly because l am elderly, at 87. My results showed that l did not have diabetes but that l was pre-diabetic. I was rather surprised because l have never been overweight and have a reasonably healthy diet.

Help for son please blood test results are they valid if not on dose prescribed
Asking for my adult son who had his
blood
tests
results back yesterday which say normal. He has autoimmune thyroid disease and was on 175 mcg a day but because he felt very unwell he dropped to 150 mcg and began to feel much better. So for the last 6 months he’s been on the lower dose of 150.

I was convinced I would be put on the second line of treatment today but instead they want me to have
blood
tests
to check my kidneys and do not think it’s a UTI as it tested clear for leukocytes and nitrates. Any idea what could be going on? What could the blood test show?

what is ibs?
I’ve had recent
blood
tests
that are all normal. Ive taken it upon myself to do the food York test to look for any sensitive foods, I’m awaiting the results and praying it comes up with something so I can avoid the food and try to get my life back on track.

Raised ESR, normal CRP
To add to the confusion I was diagnosed with smouldering multiple myeloma in May 2022 after the many
blood
tests
for PMR highlighted raised white cell count.

PMR, blood tests,when to seek a rheumatologist, TMJ
Apologies for the long preamble but I wanted to know if I should have had any more
blood
tests
since diagnosis early Feb ? My surgery says not. Also , is there a link between PMR and TMJ (I’m having a very mild episode of jaw pain eg when eating apple and slight bruising)?

Since my menopause I feel like my T3 is needing upped. Any advice on my recent blood tests?
My t.s.h was sitting at about 7.9 and I'm not feeling at my optimal. Usually my T.s.h is in between 2.5 -4.5 ish. Since menopause and getting older I feel I definitely need an upped dose! Any advice from those with t3 experience. My T4 is low at 4ish and my t3 is high because of my treatment at 8ish

GP appointment and blood tests - will recent steroid injection skew results?
She sent me for
blood
tests
today which included CRP, ESR, Rheumatoid factor and various other tests relating to autoimmune conditions. She insisted I call back for review even if tests come back normal for referral to Rheumatology.

Some evidence to take to Gp needed please.
I asked her to get a copy of her last couple of years of
blood
tests
and guess what, from the levels not one time was she over medicated. Her Tsh that her gp likes to dose by has been in range constantly and the last 2
blood
tests
showed she was undermedicated.

Help with test results
I recently went back to the doctors and she ordered a range of
blood
tests
and x-rays. She included
tests
for Rheumatoid Arthritis but the
blood
tests
have come back negative. I am awaiting the results of the x-ray.

In need of some help/suggestions please
and hoping that the GP agrees to start afresh, has anyone any advice on notes I should take with me when I can get in, questions I should ask, and
tests
I should definitely hope are included in any
blood
tests
? Thanks for reading if you got this far!

ECG not recording heart blockage
I write this long winded message to raise awareness about ECGs and
blood
tests
not recognising angina. Over the last few months I have had very frequent angina both at rest and in exercise.
