Update on Cholesterol
Hi Everyone! Just thought I'd share a small but positive update on my previous posts. I had some tests ran earlier in the year due to family history of heart problems, My ECG, Echo and CT Angiogram/ Calcium score was all good, my only negative was some follow up bloods I got done around the same time

Possible over treatment with Levothyroxine
Hi everyone, I’m new to the site. It was suggested that I make a post following a comment I made replying to another post as I may benefit from some guidance on my current treatment. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid 9 years ago. I have been treated with Levothyroxine throughout. Since 2020

A newbie question about vitamin D3
Before discovering compression fractures due to osteoporosis, I was taking various vitamin supplements. ( this is going to sound like I’m a hypochondriac, but I was trying to stay healthy). I had Garlic tablets, Glucosamine& Chondroitin, vit B, vit D3 and zinc. After my DEXA scan, my old GP put me on

Multi vitamins - at last some recognition
Hi everyone, I was pleased to see this today - as so many 'authorities' have repeatedly put down the use of multi vitamins as being a waste of money - here is a quite extensive study showing the opposite. I used to see a very highly acclaimed consultant who said exactly the same to me and would test

Adding calcium in order to strengthen bones
Hi. I have Stage IV Pca and on year 3 with Eligard and Xtandi (age 59)I've had a DEXA scan and my bones are not in the best shape due to Eligard. Getting zolendronic acid every 4 months I've just had a heart scan, and it seem like one of the blood vessels are starting to calcify. The doctors want me

24 hr Calcium Urine Test
I would be interested in knowing what results others have received on this test since being on Pred. I know Pred leaches Ca from the bones. That Ca goes somewhere and if it's not hanging out in the blood, then most likely it's being dumped by the kidneys. Or so it seems to me. It could be plaquing up

Which medicine is messing with my thyroid med uptake
Might anyone be able to suggest which of my other meds has affected my thyroid med uptake (100mcg thyroxine and 2x5mcg t3)? I was prescribed digoxin, furosemide and bisoprolol after having open heart surgery 3 mths ago to resolve some anatomical defects. Uptil that point thyroid levels were stable

Help with blood test results and symptoms please
Hi, I have hashimotos, and had a hemithyroidectomy just before Xmas. Before the operation I had been described as sub-clinical hypothyroid, with a TSH of around 2. Since the operation I been suffering from pins and needles and a feeling of slight breathlessness, which mostly comes on in the evening

Patchy Ground Glass
6/28 - Per my cardiologists I had a Calcium Score done to measure my cardiac risk. I found out that my score was Zero (best you can get), but they found patchy ground glass - biggest 9mm - likely inflammatory. Calcium Score - only focuses on 30-35% of the lungs because it’s a heart scan and not

Alendronic acid
I have stopped taking weekly alendronic acid, as I have started getting sharp pains at the base of my oesophagus. I am on 4 and a half mg of prednisone and biweekly Actemra. No pain. Feel great. I eat calcium laden foods and take daily supplements. Any opinions as I feel guilty?!!

Timing of NDT doses
I will be switching from Levothyroxine to NDT in the next few weeks. How do people manage to eat if we need to split the dose into 2 separate times, and leave 2 hours either side of taking an NDT dose, particularly avoiding magnesium, calcium and iron? So for example 9am breakfast followed by supplements
