Water fluoridation in England
I have just written to my Local MP about this as I think time is of the essence to stop it happening. I have read that it can impact thyroid function? I believe the type of fluoride to be used is hexafluorosilicic acid which is an industrial waste product from the pollution-scrubbing operations of the

What does this mean?!
Hi there - my last scan (2020) showed I have osteoporosis in my L1,2,3 &4. The Tscore was -2.5, meaning a -3.5%change since the 2015 scan (at which point I just had osteopenia in my spine). I also have a 6.5% chance of a “major of a major fracture”. My calcium levels were deemed to be fine but Alendronate

levothyroxine and Angina
Hello Everyone! I had a Thyroidectomy on March 29 of this year. Since taking levothyroxine (about 3 weeks after starting it) I've developed SEVERE Angina. I am going to my doctor on wed.

Parathyroid and bone profile test sites
Does anyone know the cheapest online places to get parathyroid and bone profile tested? Found many places that do it but not on the same site? Also is it possible to get them done via finger prick or do both of these require venous blood? I went to the drs about my fatigue, low heart rate and bp. Also

Why has supplementing with T3 caused levels to go DOWN?!
Hello All, Hope someone can help. I have been on 75mcg of T4 and 10mcg of T3 for the last three months. For the last 6/7 weeks I have felt really rotten – weight gain, depressed, needing an almost daily afternoon nap, brain fog, aching joints, etc. I had a blood test this week and just got the results

I Really Don't Understand My GP
Hi Well colour me stupid. I had my blood tests back today as I stated in my earlier post. The thyroid results got flagged through as satisfactory no action required. Even though my TSH was below range it wasn't suppressed anymore. Which I was surprised and pleased about, no meddling with my Levo I thought

NHS latest blood tests
Hi As part of my ongoing dizziness investigations I had a raft of blood tests early yesterday, fasting and with Levo taken 24 hours previously. To be honest I'm a bit surprised, my TSH is 0.10 ( range .27 to 4.2) this has gone up from when I privately tested in December and it was 0.05. But the surprise

New bloods - confused about iron study outcomes
Good afternoon Fabulous people – hoping for your wisdom again. I had new bloods on 10th June (8 week check on levo dosage). I knew that the NHS bloods wouldn’t test FT3 and FT4 (even though they were specifically requested on the form by the GP). I ordered a medichecks test to test these privately.

Afib and calcium
Hi, got Afib a few months ago, put on Thinners but Afib and ectopic symptoms persist. Stopped taking 1 g of calcium daily for osteoporosis when I read it builds up on heart valves. No change in symptoms since. Anyone any experience of effects of calcium on heart?
