Blood test results - advice pls
Hi We have just received the results of a Medichecks health check blood test on my husband. I wanted him to get it done (bear with me it is relevant!) because he had a cholesterol test about a year ago as part of a health check he gets with work and it was a little high. He also does a very stressful

High cholesterol
My labs just came in and my cholesterol is 6.92 and I'm alarmed to say the least. I turn 40 next month and lead a relatively healthy lifestyle by exercising four times a week, don't smoke, don't drink, eat a lot more poultry and egg whites than red meat and weigh 105kg. The doctor says I have a high

Repatha-PCSK9
So years of trying different medications to control my familial hypercholesteremia, and unable to tolerate any statins, or any natural sources helping my lipid levels, I have now been started on Repatha. I've now had 3 doses (injected fortnightly) and my lipid levels are now within 'normal range'. So

Free Triiodothyronine/Free Thyroxine Ratio rather than Thyrotropin is more associated with Metabolic Parameters in Healthy Euthyroid Adults
Just how healthy were the subjects that [i]any [/i]of them went on to develop metabolic syndrome? Nonetheless, this is interesting in that it reinforces the importance of FT3 (even just as it relates to FT4 to produce the FT3:FT4 ratio) and reduces, again, the power of the TSH test. [i]Clin Endocrinol

Warfarin and cholesterol reducing drinks
Strange question but I had a cholesterol test and the result was just above 5 (below 5 is acceptable). The nurse suggested the benecol drinks, which I have been taking once a day. I have tested my inr a couple of times and it seems to be dropping, today it was 1.9. The only real change has been these

Low TSH - but Dr increasing Levo?
I've just got my recent blood tests back - without T3 andT4 even though the doctor did assure me that they would be tested! My TSH is 0.02, range 0.30-6.00. I expected this, as I take thyroid s (without the doctors knowledge). What I didn't expect is for the doctor to want to increase Levo. I expected

Is it the thyroid problem that makes me feel so ill ?
I'm new here so this is my first post. I had several heart ablations done March 2015 and never really recovered. Had a load of tests done and was diagnosed as having hyperthyroidism. Was immediately put on 25g of carbamazol which has been now reduced to 5mg. Since March 2015 I've also been diagnosed

Porridge with semi-skimmed organic milk. How long should one wait before eating as it contains calcium from milk, when taking levothyroxine.
I take levothyroxine in the morning and after an hour I have tea with milk and have fruit, bananna or oranges for breakfast. Before I went on levothyroxine I used to have porridge with milk and I miss it. My latest blood serum cholesterol test is highest its ever been at 5.4, serum HDL cholesterol level
