New blood test results
Hi all, Please see my first results 6 weeks after introducing T3. I'm on 125mcg of levo and 10mcg of lio. I am very confused because I was certain that my current symptoms were due to being undermedicated! And how can my T4 be top of range again despite me reducing my levo and introducing T3. TSH 0.007

Worth switching meds?
Hello friends, I've been on Hydroxy for just over 3 years and am on a small dose of 500mg/day. Platelets are normal but my big complaint is weight gain. I'm currently on the Alternate day or Up day/Down day plan to see if I can lose any weight. After 2 weeks I'm surprised to see a few kilos go 'into

Blood test time
Im having various blood tests done for balance problems but I can only get 9.20 appointment. If I want my usual early time 8 to 8.30ish its over 3 weeks wait and that will delay any treatment for the balance issues. Thyroid is included in the test and I don't want him to say he will reduce my levothyroxine

folic acid
Is there a good resource showing the need for good folate levels alongside B12 injections? I’m on 4-weekly B12 injections but my latest serum folate blood test is at the very low end of the range, but technically in range according to the NHS so ‘no action required’. It’s gone down while I’ve been

update after 5 months diagnosis of ET
I remember writing here as I took my first hydryea tablet early October 2023 and the fear I felt. This forum has been such a help to me. I am now on 500mg every day and yesterday my platelets were down to 342 I am so pleased. That is the last 2 blood tests that have shown a decrease and all the other

Hello everyone.....
Hey Everyone, I'm Ben and 32 years of age from Dorset. As of last Friday, my doctor has put me on statins to reduce my cholesterol level and also a daily low dose of Asprin. He said this was for prevention of HA and stroke, as I've never had one. I had Mild Diffuse Coronary artery disease diagnosed when

Private Thyroid Results?….
Hi Folks, Been dealing with getting on an even keel with newly experienced B12 deficiency since the middle of last year and with the ignorance of GP’s. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism several years ago and am on 50mcg of levothyroxin. But I now want to get an up to date view of my thyroid health

Help! Have I messed up
I have just had a telephone consultation with a GP hoping for help with the symptoms I have been experiencing. I tried to point him in the direction of the relevant guidelines for treating B12 deficiency, he said that he was familiar with the NICE CKS as he deals with B12 all the time and I m not anaemic

Cortisol serum blood test results, are they normal?
I’m sorry if this information is readily available on Q and A but I have been a headless chicken since being told I had an enlarged pituitary gland three weeks ago. So I am turning to my lovely caring supportive informed friends on this forum for information I can understand. The Endocrinologist has

Really upset with my GP
I had a telephone appointment with the GP today, I said as i will have been on 15mg for 3 weeks on Friday, I would like to go down to 12.5mg, so would need some 2.5mg tablets. He downright refused and said I have a blood test in 3 weeks and he will look at that and then decide what to do next. I told

Increased symptoms after injections.
I'm still trying to get my head around everything and I have a memory like a sieve regarding what I've read to date...I always have had so that's not necessarily due to the P.A. So after 18 years of 10 weekly injections I have now had one a week so far for the last 4 weeks as advised by a consultant.

Hypo, Hashi's, Menopause & Testosterone
My last sex hormone blood test showed my testosterone at [u]
1.91!

(range of 0.10-1.42) This concerns my Endo doc who has been amazing treating my thyroid issues, but has now informed me that AFTER
age 60
you shouldn't BEGIN hrt. 😪 So, that's out of the question for me since

Worried about these results please help
Had this blood test done in January and had text to say book a non urgent appointment and just put it off also getting print out from docs they’ve requested a telephone consultation which I’ve eventually booked but looking at it I know the TSH is low in their opinion and obviously cholesterol too high

Hidden Illness, a poem in anticipation of tomorrow's guidelines
In the crowded margins of society we live with silent sickness, ailing, slowly dying. With this illness there is no absent limb, cardiac arrest or stroke, not cancer nor a dread disease, but a disadvantaged sickness, fatal slow-burn like a quiet fizzing fuse, symptoms general and disabling.
