The Summary letter says: RESULTS: With the lowest T-score of 1.5 in the Neck of Femur and Lumbar Spine (L1-L4) this examination confirms the diagnosis of Normal BMD as per WHO classification including ISCD recommendations. RECOMMENDATIONS

LBBB
I went to the primary dr to check up annual. They found out that I have abnormal LBBB. Again, I went to Cardiologist to explain to me. The calcium test showed 0. My heart is good because the wall and perfusion is good. But I don’t understand why I do have LBBB? Please explain.

Hashimotos/hypothyroidism low calcium?
Hi, I just did a private blood test to check calcium as I am so exhausted a lot of the time and I do get pain in my throat a lot (not swallowing) around my thyroid area. I know my friend had hyperparathyroidism and had adenomas removed. So I was expecting my calcium level to be high but it came back

Magnesium Supplements
I'm taking 350mg soluble magnesium carbonate every other day, as suggested by my GP before I was diagnosed. However, I have read that Magnesium Glycinate is specifically recommended for absorption and also as a sleep aid of sorts. Would welcome any feedback - i.e. what dose should be taken daily

Blood tests = Can of Worms. Anaemia or Hyperthyroidism? B12 & Serum Folate too low or OK? Other results all over the place! Any ideas?
Hi All, I have no idea what any of this means, but even I know some of it looks skewiffy! A couple of the results were flagged by the test itself; these are RDW and MCHC which may relate to thyroid function. Also the Serum Folate and B12 look a bit low so may be affecting my thyroid too. Are you able

Bones
Not sure whether to take Advil for bones. Tbh I’m a bit scared. My dexa said no change since 2015 but the Gp keeps saying I MUST take because of being on prednisone. I have some 2 a day pills sorry can’t remember name to take and I was going to take collagen. And also eat lots of calcium rich food. Please

It was two times the size of the other. I will attempt to attach the picture with this post. But anywho! The elbow was worse with some

Rheumatologist consultation since my original post
Today I have, finally, received a copy of a letter from my Rheumatologist, sent to my GP, following my consultation on the 1st July. Under “Diagnosis” she has written; ?Polymyaglia Rheumatica, ?Ploymyalgic Arthritis. So, apparently, the jury is still out! Under “Medication” she has put; 1. Prednisolone
