Help with blood test results and symptoms please
Hi, I have hashimotos, and had a hemithyroidectomy just before Xmas. Before the operation I had been described as sub-clinical hypothyroid, with a TSH of around 2. Since the operation I been suffering from pins and needles and a feeling of slight breathlessness, which mostly comes on in the evening

Statins
I have AF but it’s controlled so far with daily flecainide and bisoprolol. I get a three monthly blood test for iron overload but this week the doctor advised me to get a cholesterol blood test as well. All of my results for cholesterol were within the ranges but my doc advised that it’s recommended

Heart Attack at 38
Hi, I first posted on the thyroid board but was sent here to check with the knowledgeable people here. At the end of January I had a heart attack. The doctors said it was due to taking T3 for my thyroid but I’ve read a lot of conflicting information as to whether T3 would cause this or not and the

blood tests
hi, had blood test results and they’re all abnormal. Speaking to GP on Monday but wondered if anyone knows if a CRP result of 11 indicates polymyalgia?

Ferritin Levels
Hello, Recent blood test shows Ferritin at 118 (30 - 650 ug/L). I'm struggling to understand if that's ok as the range appears to have changed. When it was tested in September 2023 it was 112 but the range was 15-200ug/L. Is the range change significant? My brain says it makes my level lower as

'Helpline' number - so this doesn't happen again
Diagnosed with Sjorgens July 2023 and I started hydroxychloroquine in August 2023. I was told to have monthly blood tests and they would see me in February follow up after six months. I've only just found out today that I was supposed to be calling a number after each blood test to inform nurses to look

Anaemia query
Is it at all possible to have some form of anaemia, even though blood results dont support that or are inconclusive? I havent felt well now for 4 years and have driven myself to distraction trying to pin down what is going on-convinced myself I was hypothyroid but Im not. Ive just had blood tests again

Near the end?
Hi, I'm Terry, male 75 yrs old and had never heard of PMR till I got it 2years ago. I had a fall, flat on my back and about 10 days later could hardly get out of bed. I suspected spine injury or bruising and struggled with it for about a month. Went to see osteopath who suggested I had PMR

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
