Time of last T3 dose before blood test?
Hi all, quick question. If having an early morning, fasting blood test to include full thyroid panel, lipids etc. What time should the last dose of T3 be? Morning, Lunchtime or 3pm? TAI

Discrimination against central/secondary hypothyroidism
Just had a phone call from a GP at my health practise. They had asked for advice from the endocrinologists at the local hospital. This was because my blood test results indicate that my TSH does not rise as my T4 falls and I have hyperthyroid symptoms plus ultrasound scan showing thyroiditis. Apparently

GGT level
Hi, I was told that in 2015 I had a fatty liver from having a scan for suspected gall stones. I wasn't told much more and no advice or follow up given. Last year I started getting pain and a kind of tight feeling on my right side just under my lowest rib. Gp did some blood tests and said nothing came

Access to Blood Test results on line.
Hi everyone, I am wondering if anyone in the UK can tell me if there is any other way I can see my blood test results on line other than GP’s app, “My GP”. and NHS app. Up until six months ago I had access to all blood test results and previous ones which I liked for comparison. However, the GP’s Surgery

Allele Test for PV by Blood?
I went to my Hematologist today and asked whether there was an allele blood test for PV and the response I received was no. I thought I had read on these boards about such a blood test existed and it was not necessary to do a bone marrow biopsy. Does anybody know?

At what point for scan ?
Hi. Currently just had # 4 chemo. Live in Canada so PSMA has never been done . Bone scan and CT scan. I'm wondering at what point it would be good to get a scan ( they already said it would probably be a CT scan as that's all we have in my province and eventually another bone scan which He has to fly

Testosterone levels
Hi. Is a testosterone level of 11.2 in a blood test a concern. My gp says no but symptoms are fatigue, muscle loss, low sex drive, brain fog and anxiety. They said no to trt but interested if this is low level or if the nhs won't fund the treatment unless they have to. Thanks
