So confused! Can anyone help me make sense of blood results & advise on supplements?
Hi All, so a couple of weeks ago I was told my thyroid was a little underactive and prescribed a low dose of Levothyroxine. (25mcg). I assumed it was my TSH the GP meant but I got my blood results and that and my T4 are fine, T3 is a little low. I don't understand, reading other people's experiences

Hi everyone. I have been told by the rheumatologist the swelling and pain in my hand and shoulder was due to inflammation. After stopping salt( which I loved) and taking vitamin c, they are now so much better. I don't know if it will work for anyone else, but I got sick of being told what it was but

Free T3 result
3.33 pmo/L (3.10 - 6.80) So having read a few things on here, am I right in thinking it should be in the upper range to be optimal? I take my thyroxine before bed to avoid taking with food. I take all my vitamins in the morning or afternoon. I am currently taking: A good multi-vit (pic attached) Vit

Blood results back- would really appreciate your advice, please.
Hi. I’m on 125mcg of T4 and these are yesterday’s Medichecks results. I’d be so grateful for your thoughts. Apologies for the long post- I was hoping these results would give me a definitive answer as to whether I need to try T3 but I’m still confused! *TSH 0.006 (0.27-4.20) *Free thyroxine 24 (12.00

Low sperm➡️No sperm➡️Some sperm
In keeping with my desperate attempts to remain optimistic and treat each little success as actually a big victory, we had some good news today! Hurrah. Having found out mid-March that my husband has a low sperm count (less than 2 million - too low to detail mobility and morphology etc), we were pretty

Any info helps.
My father first started his treatment for Hep-C, he was in stage four liver surrossis. He has now been testing negative for 1 year. We were just wandering what we should expect? I know this question might be hard to answer, but any information you could give us would be great.

Vitamin Tablets - Can we take them?
Hi All Prior to my angioplasty I was taking Vitamin B complex, Vitamin D and Vitamin C tablets. I have asked if I can take three again and have been met with mixed reviews. Are any of you taking the above after having angioplasty? Kind regards Tracy 😊
