Raynauds and Hypermobility
Hello, I've been diagnosed with primary Raynauds which is getting worse. I've had blood tests to rule out other conditions, but they've all been negative. Should I be pushing for a nailfold capillorthingy (technical term...)? I've also got colitis, irritable bladder, some joint hypermobility so I'm

Things not happening is a blessing in disguise
Nowadays I look back and feel that not having got those places in the inner city was a blessing in disguise as I wouldn't have been happy there and the rents there have got absolutely ridiculous and that really really would have hurt to have got one of those places that was nice and affordable at first

High ALT
Hello I recently had a full blood test as I have been having on going muscle pains, all my results came back OK apart from my ALT levels. They were 20ul 3 weeks ago and 67ul yesterday. All my other liver functions were in the normal range. Is this something to be worried about? I do have a doctors appointment

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
