Hashimoto's patient feeling exhausted: full blood results, any advice?
Hello all, I've posted before and was advised to get a full set of blood tests and post the results here for the Thyroid experts :) to look at and advise on what else I might try to combat my fatigue. Here goes (blood taken Monday this week): ! Serum TSH level - (NWM2358) - Abnormal but improved

bit of a scare
I’m a 50 year old female with CAD, only diagnosed 18 months ago (no symptoms but my older sister discovered she has severe carotid artery calcification and was advised to tell siblings to get tested) I’m on ramipril and 40mg atorvastatin as my cholesterol was high. last night I had an awful dream and

Ectopics & SVT
Hi Everyone Its been a little while. My history is Ablation June 2021 which was successful. However, I now get ectopics and SVT's. I has a 24 hr hospital monitor which confirmed this via my EP. They are not severe but hugely disruptive and the worry of "will they won't they" is as bad as them

Pth blood test
I'm a 94 year old widow lady. My primary Doctor told me I have 46 per cent kidney function. My Pth lab test showed 76, the normal number is 54. She said my parathyroid was the cause. Something about taking my calcium out of my bones. I don't understand. I have made an appointment with a Urologist

hypothyroid following partial thyroidectomy. Question about HRT and optimum T4 levels.
Dear forum, I am 58. 3 months ago while having parathyroid adenoma removed, I also had partial thyroidectomy. This was because thyroid nodule was discovered during scans looking for the adenoma. The nodule was examined and contained micropapliiary carcinoma. No further treatment needed for that thankfully

Which Magnesium?
Hi all, I've been taking a Magnesium Citrate supplement for well over a year now (got a good supply) and originally started it for heavy, restless legs and sleep problems. I have now come to the end of my supply and 4th day in, without it, the symptoms I've described have re-appeared! My question is,

Removing calcium.
Any thoughts out there on taking vit K and vit D to reduce calcium in the arteries? The idea is to take the D at breakfast, and the K at dinner time and ,over 3 months, the artery calcium should have actually reduced by some 30 to 50 %. If true, then it should be widely promulgated. Looking forward

calcium channel blockers
I am having a bit of trouble getting my dose before the weekend apparently the GP has to agree for me to have them monthly although my prescription says long term so I thought they were on a repeat anyway if I am unfortunate and they are not signed off today can I go a day or two without them safely

Interactions between food and Levothyroxine.
Could anyone suggest a decent source to help me choose the correct foods depending on the time of day? I recently read that calcium shouldn’t be consumed until 4 hours after taking Levothyroxine. It looks like fibre shouldn’t be eaten too soon afterwards as well. That makes breakfasts more difficult.

Calcium/Vitamin d tablets causing AF
Back in April, I discovered that I had a dairy intolerance. I have had a gluten intolerance for about 12 years now. More recently I have also discovered that I have a soya intolerance. Following stopping dairy, my blood tests showed that my calcium and vitamin d were low, so my oncologist asked

When should you take medication?
I had a scan 3 years ago and got scores of -2.6. I decided not to take medication at that time and stuck with calcium and K2 supplements as well as exercise. I am vegan so eating dairy was not an option. I am sure that if my scores are worse on this scan I will get a lot of pressure to start on medication

Please help me form a plan of action based on my blood results!
Just got my bloods back and would appreciate any advice what all these could mean and/or how I can myself get well(er) as I am not at all convinced this knowledge will ever come from my clueless but kind GP and NHS Endo. By way of background, thyroid disease runs in my family, and I have had years

HELP! I'm New to osteoporosis - should I take meds?
I was recently diagnosed with osteoporosis (at 63 - I think I'm too young) but I've always had osteopenia and am a small person. I've had doctors talk about medications but when I read the side effects and consider not being able to stop them (in the case of Prolia... which was highly recommended) I

Calcium
It is recommended that older women get 1,200 milligrams of calcium per day. Shouldn't body weight and size be taken into consideration?
