miscarriage scare
Hello, I know no one can help and I just have to wait and hope for the best but I just need to get this out. I’m 6 weeks 1 day pregnant and I’m Saturday night last night and this morning I had brown discharge in my crinone applicator. I know this can be normal but I also had cramping yesterday afternoon

helvela Re don’t stop thyroxine b4 blood tests
Taking the thyroxine on the morning of the test, would only confuse the inexperienced. It will change your T4 levels slightly, and not influence your TSH. It won't impact my interpretation of your results. It is not worth worrying about. The vast majority of doctors are experienced enough to understand

normal gamma-gt and cirrhosis?
hello, I went to the GP today to discuss concerns about drinking. I’ve cut down significantly but am concerned about having already done irreversible damage. Historically my results have always been normal (last blood test in March). She said that if gamma-gt is normal, cirrhosis is unlikely, but did

My daughter's blood tests, could someone take a look please .
My daughter is 12. She doesn't have any diagnosed thyroid problems but our GP has run various blood tests due to regular nosebleeds and occasional migraines with aura. I persuaded them to check her thyroid and iron panel aswell. I've pushed for this with our family history of autoimmune thyroid problems

Ready to trigger but blood markers a concern
Edit just in case anyone has the same and comes across this post:
In the afternoon the nurse called to say my blood markers are looking a lot better. Oestradiol now at over 4000 (up from 2000) and LH looking better. This is the second time I've found myself spiralling over something that then

When to take Levothyroxine prior to bloods?
morning all - I’d really appreciate some advice please. My blood tests are at 2.40pm one day next week and I usually take my tablets about 3-4am. (2.40pm was Earliest appointment I could get). When would it be best to take it prior to testing? It seems maybe too long to miss it until after the bloods

T3 toxicity
Hi, I wonder if anyone could tell me whether it’s possible for T3 to simply ‘not agree’ with me? I’ve posted here before and got lots of great advice. My numbers previously showed me mid range through all the thyroid numbers but not converting well to T3. I was advised to take selenium and zinc

alternative liver cancer screening for those w/ cirrhosis
I am looking into alternative ways of screening for HCC liver cancer because the current screening guidelines regularly fail to catch the cancer early enough. For those of us who have well-compensated cirrhosis, even though our livers are compensating, the risk of HCC remains very high for our entire

Crash after Covid?
I’m really struggling to balance my body back out after having Covid and so so puzzled. Not sure why this has happened or where to go with it next. Has anyone had a really bad crash after Covid? I’m diagnosed pernicious anaemia and hypothyroid Hashimotos. I had been in the same routine with supplements

Taking blood tests after Pred
Hi, If someone has finished the MethylPrednisolone pack on July 5, 2024, how soon can blood be drawn to get a reading of CRP and ERS without it impacting the results? How long does Pred stay in our systems and affect the CRP and ERS blood test results? Thank you!

Hair loss - Levothyroxine!!
Hi All, Thanks in advance for any reassurance, but since starting on Levothyroxine I’m really noticing that my hair is falling out much more than usual. Whilst I appreciate this can be a side effect it’s quite unsettling…. I was put on a starting dose of Levothyroxine at 50cmg with a TSH level of 48
