I am 70 years of age & pretty much alone
I have had one sided thyroid problem for 25yrs & tests say its working fine but I gained 21 pounds over 3 weeks, all the usual underactive thyroid symptoms but no meds. All that's on offer is surgery, I have been told for many years you have abnormal cells, not cancerous but could turn that way. I have

AUTOIMMUNE LIVER BLOODS
I am new to this community and have found some useful information here. I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency of 158 last August, had various tests plus B12 repeated on 17 January and this time my B12 came back at 147. My GP says it’s borderline but from what I’ve read hear it’s low, he did further bloods

Can IBS lead to other conditions?
HiAfter having ibs most of my adult life it has, I believe led to an autoimmune condition. Leaky gut then migraines and all the time the link was gluten. Gluten free now and have been for over 3 years, dairy free too for over 2 years, private tests have led to this very restrictive diet. FODMAPDIET didn't

is this a lupus rash?
Just wanted to add: I’m not taking anything anyone says as a diagnosis or medical advice I promise. I was just curious what people thought it looked like, and just gave info for context. I promise I’m not thinking if someone says it does look like the lupus rash that I’m not taking it as a diagnosis
