Fibroscan score of 17.2 (NAFLD)
Next week I was asked to come in for a second set of bloods and told over the phone that hepatology required 2
blood
tests
before they would accept the referral.

When We Have CLL, Why We Need Particularly need an Immunome. (Why neutrophil and immunoglobulin counts don't measure immunity all that well)
It is possible to do
blood
serum titre
tests
to check for antibody levels against some infectious diseases, but it's rarely done. The final version of "[i]VIrScan.

Help with blood test results and symptoms please
I stopped my iron/b vitamins a week before my
blood
tests
, which were taken at 8.30am after fasting. I am not taking levothyroxine or other thyroid medication.

However, in recent weeks I have not seen much rectal bleeding and
blood
tests
are within normal ranges. I have continued bruising on my forearms, hands and chest which seems to be part of this blood abnormality, whatever the cause may be.

Symptoms….I’m confused
Endo apt few days ago and he wanted to do his own
blood
tests
so I’m waiting for those. I am worrying as my T3 was near the low range and some people appear to get fast heart rate using it which I imagine would not be good for me Then I read that Levo can be a problem too.

tests
over a couple years and my iron levels are: Total Iron level is 61 to 110. Ferritin is 112 to 133. Saturation is 22 to 33%. Binding capacity is 275 to 291. I took Pramipexole for over 30 years and it worked.

appointments
They use to send me for regular
blood
tests
but that’s stopped. I’m on methotrexate injections prescribed by the rheumatologist and have monthly
blood
tests
. I thought I would be seeing the rheumatologist regularly but I don’t. Is anyone else in this situation.

I’m back again …5th cycle 🤞
Annoyingly at this appointment the Doctor advised I have more detailed
blood
tests
, if positive I would be adding in Humira and intralipids and something else. But would mean postponing the cycle for another 2-3 months.

All through Covid and lockdown I had 3 monthly appointments.6 monthly lung function
tests
and various
blood
tests
. I have access to a palliative care consultant,who is very supportive. Also ,the invaluable interstitial nurse helpline. So,I decided that it’s not too bad after all.

advice with latest results
There were no
blood
tests
done at the time of the scan to get an updated picture of my thyroid function so I asked for them to be done myself. My Doctor told me the results were fine when they came back to which I asked if he was sure , as I felt awful.

Rituximab and Chest Infections
The chest X-ray showed a lot if infection in 1 lung, but I still had no temperature and my
blood
tests
showed no inflaminflammatory markers. Apart from the breathlessness I didn't feel unwell as I usually do when fighting an infection. I am on another round of antibiotics.

SWOLLEN ANKLES WITH LUNG CONDITION
I was in for a few days, they did a chest x-ray, lots of different
blood
tests
, an ECG which they said was normal. However they found my lungs were hyperinflated and also I had fluid on my lungs. They gave me Furosemide intravenously which made me feel much better.

Facing thyroid surgery?
Blood
tests
eventually showed that my thyroid levels had stopped fluctuating although I still had poor sleep, a lack of energy and weight gain to deal with.

road to diagnosis
I was told that erythromelalgia often co occurs with other autoimmune conditions so further
blood
tests
were done to rule this out/confirm.

Do I need to worry?
My
blood
tests
results were very good until now, like normal. The consultant even said I was in remission. But the latest blood test is showing HB, RBC, WBC etc all under the recommended level. No one said anything today at the Chemotherapy Unit. Only that some were a little bit low.
