Thyroid Scan
20% of autoimmune thyroid patients never have high thyroid antibodies and ultrasound scan of thyroid can get diagnosis I’m curious to know what would show up on the scan to indicate autoimmune thyroid disease as opposed to it being caused by subacute thyroiditis.

Too much b12?
As a coeliac I don’t absorb b12 and after much stress with doctors I had the 2wks of loading doses and one every 3 mths with doctor. I pay for an injection in the other months and take Clean b12 tablets daily. As I thought your body can’t overdose I’ve been taking two b12 at night instead of one, and

Hi everyone, has anyone sound information regarding the use of melatonin with autoimmune disease. I am reading conflicting advice about using it with certain autoimmune issues, although it doesn't mention PA or Hashimoto's specifically.

PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS
I supposedly have psoriatic arthritis/tendinopathy however there is no evidence in my blood. My tendons attaching to elbows and feet become extremely painful. I was put on MTX 15ml injections for 8 months but stopped as my blood cells were slightly enlarged and the jury is out if it was even working

How long does a coeliacs blood test take to come back?
Exactly that! I had bloods done on Friday lunch time, including a FBC, B12, folate, and ferritin. Also Coeliac screen (TTG). All the others are back but not the coeliac screen yet. Is that usual?

Breakthrough with the cause of IBD - may lead to similar discoveries with other autoimmune diseases?
Just spotted this on my BBC News notifications. BBC News - Major cause of inflammatory bowel disease found https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1wwdd6v2wjo It's written in layman's language, but seems to say they have found that there is a genetic link and that they have drugs already that might treat
