New blood results - Need advice
TSH: 1.82 FT4: 19 (11-23) FT3: 5.6 (3.4-5.9) I was on 225mcg and lowered to 150mcg. These blood tests were after 16 weeks on 150. I took two weeks off of 225mcg then started 150. I feel awful. Terrible fatigue and brain fog. Was told I possibly had a thyroid storm. My FT3 has never been this

PMR relapse?
I would be grateful for some advice! I was diagnosed with PMR end of 2022. I was put on 15 mg Prednisolone and started tapering around 2 months in. I stopped Pred December 23! Around 10 weeks ago started waking in early hours in bad pain chiefly in shoulders and hips but also shooting pains in limbs

Update on ferritin testing issue - private vs. NHS results
Hi everyone. Posting as a new post, rather than add to the long thread on my previous post. https://healthunlocked.com/pasoc/posts/150959532/medichecks-vs-nhs-results I have a reply from Medichecks. Hmm... Whilst the info seems to align with what you posted FlipperTD , they don't seem to

Recent blood test – Why do I feel so tired?
Hello, Please could you have a look at my recent blood test results and tell me what could be the cause of my constant tiredness? I find it hard to get out of bed in the morning and often wake up with brain fog. I often wake up during the night to pee. I often feel the need to fall asleep in the afternoon

Johns Hopkins adjusted clinical groups system score mean under nhs?
I see this on record Johns Hopkins adjusted clinical groups system score of ACG 5. What does it mean how does it impact me in any way.? I have started asking for blood tests and my GP has not been happy about it. Surgery has never been keen to blood tests though this seems to have popped up on record

Time between Afib trigger & episode
Hi all, I've very recently been diagnosed with Afib (thanks, Apple Watch for highlighting the problem I'd never heard of) and have been to the GP/hospital since February to get a proper diagnosis. So far all my results are showing normal (blood pressure, Echo, blood tests, that sort of thing). ECG did

My question is about the best way of getting a diagnosis of sarcoidosis or of discounting it?
I was diagnosed recently with Raynauds disease which can get quie painful, but is manageable. I have GORD and a small hiatus hernia. However I do get abdominal pain and have asthma exacerbated by allergies. I have just had a CT scan and was told the pain is probably musco-skeletal, plus I have an atryphed

In shock, TSH from 20.3 to 0.103!
hello, I posted a while ago as I was getting so concerned at the rate my TSH was increasing, I had increased my levothyroxine gradually to 175mg with no improvement, the last bloods and drs appointment I had I was given instructions to increase to 200mg which I believe is the limit for my weight. by

Medichecks ferritin results and ranges
Hi all. I don't have a thyroid issue (this has been ruled out), but someone on the PAS forum suggested I post a query on here to see if anyone could shed light on this issue. Having accessed my GP records late last year I discovered I had a long-standing ferritin deficiency, as defined by NICE guidelines

New to Levo, question about TSH aim
I've been taking Levo 50mg per day for 3 months, and just had the first blood test result back. My TSH is at 2.85, and they are saying that I should stay on this dose and get tested again in a year. The last test before I started medication (January) my TSH was 8.6, T4 12.8. Both were done first thing

Further advice needed from you lovely people.....Please
Some of you will remember my recent post about my private blood test results and a scan which showed I have a very small thyroid......... Test results shown above, all vits and mins were ok. On advice from some of you knowledagable people, I increased my Levo by 25mg and informed my Gp and endocrinologist
