Advice on my blood test results, please.
Hello, I was diagnosed in August and really benefitted from advice from people here. I am lacking confidence in the GP as I feel they don't do anything proactively, although they have seemed happy to follow the guidance I am given here. My blood test results are below. I have been prescribed Vitamin

Comments please on recent blood tests. Thank you very much
Hello everyone, I did some blood tests this week, and here are the readings. I' m on 75mcg thyroxine a day, and take supplements for B12, vitamin D&K2. I have been on T4 for about 3 years. I've been on higher doses of T4 (up to 150mcg) but it only lowered my TSH without making a significant difference

My Liver on Kratom....
Hi all.....this is my first post after years of following this invaluable forum.

First I would

Any idea why this test went for 34 to 103 ? I had blood work done yesterday and my doctor didn’t say anything about this. This test is usually in the low to mid 30s for the last year. Thanks you you all and keep a good attitude, they say that’s half of the battle! Hugs!!

Side Effects of Niraparib (ZEJULA)?
While I await the results of my genetic test to see if I have the DNA repair defect to allow me to participate in the AMPLITUDE clinical trial, I have been looking at the SEs for Niraparib and they don’t look very pleasant, so I wondered if anyone has used it and has personal experience to share?

interpreting my blood test results
Hello again I posted here about a month ago, and received really useful information about what blood tests for hypothyroidism should reveal. I have now had the results of the tests, which are quite lengthy, but do not seem to have any information on T3 and T4 levels. Please could some wise person comment

Heart rate over 100. Should I lower or up my Levo??
Hi I was wondering if someone had any advice on whether or not I should lower or up my Levo dose? I had upped from 100mg to 112.5 mg beginning of June, but my heart-rate just keeps going over 100bpm when I’m not doing anything. I’m still tired and feel as if I just can’t be bothered. I’ve been sitting

Factors Associated with Falls During Hospitalization for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)
Having today written on another post, lamenting the ignoring of thyroid issues, I find this paper which shows commendable inquisitiveness and interesting observations. Although the population investigated was small, I find the difference in TSH between the fallers and the non-fallers very interesting

Who knows about ferritin/ iron tests? Confused here! Do I need to do something? Help please!
I get confused with ferritin and iron results, as I can't remember how they work together. Ferritin is low, but haemoglobin is ok? My GP marked everything 'normal'. I'd be grateful for some explanation and advice on what to do please! I have felt more tired. In fact absolutely exhausted a couple of

CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for B-ALL achieved remarkable efficacy with a complete remission of 70–90%
This looks interesting but way over my knowledge base. Perhaps some of you super brains can figure this out. In recent years, the increasing advancements and applications of cellular immunotherapy have enabled the use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, and it has emerged as an efficacious

He wanted to prescribe what I already have, antihistamine and
Calamine
Lotion. Both of which don’t touch it some nights. My Oncologist is sick with Covid and saw a Junior Doctor who was lovely but I’m not sure he quite got it.

Lotion that looks hideous when you go out as it dries up white. My friends Mum had the same situation but she is on different drugs to me.

Liver function and Atorvastatin
Hi all, I had a heart attack in November 2021 and part of the cocktail of medications I was given was Atorvastatin 80mg one per night. Prior to my heart attack, in May 2021, I had an age related "MOT" including a liver function test. On that occasion my serum alanine aminotransferase levels were 17
