Living With A-Fib Questions
Hi All, I was diagnosed with A-Fib only a few weeks ago so everything is still very new and a bit bewildering. I think I was first aware that something wasn't right around 3 months ago when I noticed I got much more out of breath walking up a hill then I would normally be. A couple of days later I noticed

Latest results - where to go next?
Hi all, I'm back with another request for your valuable input. I started levothyroxine treatment for Hashimoto's in February, and at my last review my GP agreed an increase to 62.5mcg (50/75 on alternating days). Things have improved in many areas - I seem to be back to a manageable level of energy in

Timings of 'supra physiologic' B12 doses . . . thru' day ( - for those who can absorb them !).
Taking several divided doses can assist more to be absorbed, & allow blood levels to vary/fluctuate less than taking the same amounts as fewer, larger doses - this makes sense, as a general principle. However, some consideration of the timing of doses, relative to meal times in particular, may well

B-vitamins without B12?
Hi all, asking here as I haven't been able to find any through my own searches.. Does anyone know of a B complex that does not contain B12? My b12 is over range but I would still like to take the rest of the Bs to keep them balanced. Someone suggested I look for one that didn't contain b12 or maybe unmethlyated

HELP⁉️❓🆘
I could really use some help with shopping & preparing CKD specific meals. However I'm having quite the dilemma right now. One problem is I'm low income, & have 🫰 benefits, so I have limits on what I can spend, which also means no mail delivery pre packaged meals, & I may be wrong, but I've noticed

Starting treatment soon.
First of all, I'm hep c positive, diagnosed decades ago. Everything has been 'good' until recently. I had some bloodwork done about a month ago. My liver enzymes spiked (they've always been good), so my GI doctor ordered a fibroscan. The result was a 13, so I was diagnosed as F3 via the scan. Since

Great Manchester Run 10k - first run report and it's waaaay too long 😂🙈 sorry
I've only run at 3 events, 2 x 10ks and 1 x 5k, all of these organised by a very friendly local company, and set at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park. Fabulous fun, great animal themed medals and tee shirts! About 1200 runners. I'd watched last year's Great Manchester Run on tv and thought I'd enter; it looked

Have Hashimoto's and currently taking supplements to improve vits etc. I have very low cortisol most of the day (from Regenerus test) so have been

what is the desired T4:T3 ratio? (because I don’t think this is it)
I just put all my latest lab results in the calculator and said “YIKES”! What ratio should I be shooting for? This doesn’t seem right — and I sure don’t feel well. Having the percentages really helps me understand just how low I am on B12 & D! Thanks always. - T4:T3 Ratio: 0.417 - Free T4: 1.25

Getting off Thyroxin
My last blood in April was all normal, this was the very first in 20 years to be completely normal. 20 years ago I was put onto 120mg of thyroxin after a bout of quinsy along with an intense and stressful year along with a 50lb weight gain. I know it doesn't suit everyone but I lost all my weight gain

recent blood test
Hello everyone I would appreciate your thoughts on my recent blood tests. I had been advised by my endo (private) to stop taking T3 and go back to 125g Thyroxine. ( he didn’t think I was benefiting from the T3) I didn’t feel that this info was correct for me so have been taking 100g + 10g litho

Very confused by blood test results - grateful for help please
Hi All, Further to my previous posts, I continue to be very unwell, with my main symptoms being severe fatigue and disabling cognitive symptoms. As I have mentioned in previous posts, I do also have a diagnosis of CFS/ME (for what that is worth) which has fluctuated in severity for the last 22 years

1st BLOOD RESULT ON NDT
hi, thank you for looking and reading. I had a full thyroidectomy on 20 December 2022. I tried levothyroxine and was struggling to convert. I went on to NDT 7 weeks ago. I did my blood test this morning fasting and drinking only water at 7.30am, and I withheld the NDT for 24 hours. I appreciate my t3

Poor Conversion T4 to T3 update and supplement advice (Magnesium, Vit B complex, Vit C)
Nearly two months after my Medichecks blood tests and c5 weeks after GP blood test results (see previous posts) I've managed to get an answer from my GP - he has consulted the Endo at local hospital who says I'm a poor converter... Apparently current NHS guidance is to increase the amount of T4 I'm
