Private Rheumatology appointment
After waiting months for an appointment on NHS I've decided to go privately. This is a lot of money for me and so am really keen to get the most out of it. Half an hour doesn't seem anywhere near the time I'd need to explain all of my symptoms amd get some answers. I'm certain I have Lupus or Sjogrens

Advice regarding Thyroid levels
Hi Could do with some advice regarding my thyroid test levels. I have Hashimoto's but am not taking thyroid medication due to my TSH levels not being high enough yet. I was diagnosed just over 2 years ago after my health had declined for several years. My GP did however agree to a 25mcg Levothyroxine

Lost and Confused
Since my Heart attack on Dec 4th 2022 when I was given 3 stents I have been to A&E three times with distressing symptoms. Each time I have to sit in a corridor for at least Seven hours to have 2 blood tests. They show no rising in my levels that held a 7. So I am told to leave and find my own way home

Hi friends I get so much sound advice from this group and your help is invaluable. As I have already posted I was diagnosed with Cirhossis following a routine blood test and a fibroscan (17kpa)as the results of the blood test showed many abnormalities. I am on 6 monthly reviews with the consultant

FET- advice sought!
Hello all ❤️ Sadly, this is far from my first ivf experience, but I am about to embark on what will be my first FET. None of my embryos were ever good enough to freeze on the 5th/6th day according to my UK clinic so always had The fresh transfer and that was that. However, moved to a clinic in Cyprus

High LFT results
I had my first 6 month appointment with my liver nurse last week. As part of the review I had a routine bloody test for LFT. My previous blood test was on the 14th Dec 23 and my numbers were gradually reducing. I just had the results this morning and pretty much all my levels have increased including

palpitations and cold
hi all, newbie here. I was diagnosed under active 4 yrs ago. No symptoms but it was picked up in a blood test. 4 years on and have been suffering palpitations for around 16 months. All heart related tests are normal so it’s been put down to the 75mg meds daily. It really can be debilitating at times.

I am planning to have my first IVF procedure in Prague next month. I had an email from them with some blood tests required and a letter from my GP/specialist to confirm that I am fit for surgery however my GP said they’re unable to help. I will contact the clinic to see if there’s anyway I can get that
