I have discovered that George and Barbara Bush also both had Graves and although the cause was investigated, it was never found why both got it. Their dog

thank you for the help! ❤️
I recently posted asking if anyone had pancreatitis issues with lupus (just been diagnosed with cutaneous lupus) and I got some advise & help & support. I spoke to the hepatobillary clinic who removed my gallbladder & they agree it’s most likely the pancreatitis is being caused by an autoimmune issue

Once I start supplementing B12, will my B12 blood tests still be accurate?
I would like to know if blood tests will still be a useful measure of my B12 levels, once I have started supplementing B12. I would be testing active B12. The reason I ask is that I have read pernicious anemia people saying that once they start injections (and supplements too maybe), that the B12 blood

Is a false-positive biopsy possible?
I have a history of prostate cancer in my family. My father had it, and my brother had it and he had his prostate removed. As a result, for the last 13 years, I've had my PSA checked every six months. I typically run a very low PSA, historically .5 or .6. About 18 months ago I noticed that my PSA was

Newly diagnosed
Hello. I felt unwell for a long time. I've been diagnosed with underactive thyroid and started treatment. My symptoms have been severe and I've really struggled.

curious question- does Levothyroxine effect you in the sun?? I’ve never had any issues before being in the sun- and today I’ve been out maybe for an hour or so and my skin is so sore and itchy?? I know with having a underactive thyroid you get dry skin etc but this is bizzare?
