A (failed?) attempt to stop thyroid medicines.
Hi, everyone. Sorry for the long post... I've been on thyroid hormone replacement since almost 4 years. I started euthyrox on the advice of my gp when my TSH was 2.89 (0.27-4.20). My antibodies were also slightly elevated (TPO: 112 [0-34]) and they remain on this range until today. Back then I was

Vitamin D supplement
Have been watching Dr John Campbell on U Tube and he is recommending taking a large amount of Vit D to avoid catching Covid or any other virus infection. It also lessens the effect of these viruses. At present I just have the vit D in Calcichew - 10 micrograms , and thats when I remember to take it

timing of supplements
I am confused about whether it is beneficial to take supplements at certain times of the day or with/without certain pairings. Perhaps it just doesn’t matter, which would be much more convenient. This is what I am currently doing,, but I’d appreciated any suggestions, especially if you think I am overthinking

Vitamin D results are in - I'm worried
Dear Community I recently had some bloods done but the Vit D results have only just been updated onto my NHS App. I thought perhaps the lab had not undertaken the analysis. I am worried because one of these is right at the bottom of the range. Please may ask your advice in helping me to understand

Adcal-D3
Just wondering if anyone takes Adcal-D3 prescribed by the GP. I've just been looking at the level of D3 and its 400 I.U. (equivalent to 10 micrograms per tablet). For winter that seems low to me; was wondering if anyone takes extra D3? Its important I can absorb calcium as I've now got osteoporosis

Calcium supplements - are they essential for PMR
I saw my GP a couple of days ago and whilst there he reviewed my Calcium/Vitamin D3 supplements. I currently take an EvercalD3 tablet twice daily, a super strength vitamin D3 +K2 tablet containing 4000 iu vitamin D3 plus a multivitamin tablet. This gives me calcium intake of 3000 mg daily and 5000

Could Vitamin D3 affect hemoglobin levels?
My husband ( 84 years old) has had CLL for at least 20 years. Two years ago they started him on Imbruvica 420 mg daily but stopped it after 14 months because his neutrophil count was so low. Since June of 2022 he has been getting Eprex injections (40,000 units ) weekly and taking Aclovir 400 mg twice

Choosing the right supplements
I am searching for comparable supplements that group members have recommended. I am in the US. I am adding a photo of the 3 I have picked out. I have chosen these based on the description and the price. I am on a budget, but I want to get the best I can for the money I have to spend on these, but

D3 + K 2 and magnesium supplements
Hi, I don’t know if actually being given levo which suits me for 3 months (Mercury Pharma) or taking the above has helped, but my almost daily episodes of diarrhoea have cleared up. Also, I was having increasing chest pains which have completely cleared up taking vitamin D3. Just in case this helps anyone
