Dose of Levo lowered
Hi, My GP lowered my thyroxine from 150mcg to 125 mcg as my TSH was 0.01 after the January blood test My TSH has been low for years. There was no discussion about how I felt and no option to stay on 150mcg. Results from Monitor my Health as GP refuses to test anything other than TSH! Both tests

Having been treated for hypothyroidism since 2000 when I had a thyroid nodule, I have struggled with my weight and wellbeing to varying degrees over the years. I'm now 79, but active. I saw an Endo privately in October had a few blood tests which I have posted, (including Medichecks in Feb I think)

Abnormal blood test again!
Hi all, I posted in here 2 months ago after discovering my thyroid blood results were abnormal. I saw a GP and agreed an increase in dosage from 200 to 225 daily levothyroxine. I’ve had another blood test (Friday just gone) and the results on my NHS app state ‘ Abnormal, but to be expected ‘ … should

found a good neurologist
Hi all I’m Back again… Just thought I’d let you know I have found an understanding neurologist who doesn’t blame everything on FND. I have fibromyalgia too so he asked me how I was feeling on that day. I said the fatigue took over my life and that I had right side pain often feeling sick and dizzy.

Pulmonary Hypertension - please, please help, I'm very anxious.
Hi there. I've been diagnosed with mild to moderate pulmonary hypertension. I have no symptoms except for shortness of breath when climbing flights of stairs or if I have to walk uphill for some distance. I went to ED on Monday with chest pain [turns out it was a panic attack], but they did blood tests

Another visit to Rheumatologist…
Hi, I had a face to face appointment with my Rheumatologist yesterday. My ESR has increased to 97 and CRP 38. He said he’s very concerned about this 🙄. I’ve had 8 injections of Adalimumab since I last saw him for Ankylosing Spondylitis. He has stopped the jabs because he says they aren’t working

Full blood counts
Does anyone use a blood count machine that uses just a pinprick drop of blood? The hospital my wife is under seems to use an inordinate amount of blood to test her FBC, which being so anemic she can't really afford to lose. And now the gastrointestinal consultant has decided that she shouldn't have RBCs
