Letters to doctor which led to treatment - feel free to copy any parts
Hi all, I said on another post (https://healthunlocked.com/pasoc/posts/136700379/stunned-in-a-good-way) that I'd post the contents of the letter I'd sent my GP when someone asked, just in case it was of any use to anyone else to use bits of. Certainly, a few months ago when I was much more ill I wouldn't

Chromium Picolinate with Levothyroxine
I have read that taking Chromium Picolinate is good for lowering Bloody Sugar and to help with sugar cravings. I take levothyroxine of 175mcs at night and have been hypothyroid for over 20 odd years. I was just about to pop my first pill (as such) and someone said that I shouldn't take them with hypothyroidism

Just a quick comment on iron
Hello All A few years ago when I was trying to get my body sorted out and having regular blood tests it seemed my iron levels were through the roof for no apparent reason. The Doc asked me if I was taking iron supplements, which I was not. In conversation with a friend, she asked me if I was drinking

Blood Test Results
My doctor phoned me yesterday to give me an overview of my test results. I'm still B12 deficient even though levels improved slightly. B6 levels dropped, I guess because it wasn't treated when I had my initial B12 shots months back. Something even nastier popped up as well. My iron levels dropped by

Hypothyroidism and complications?
I'm a new member. I've just had my thyroxine increased after scans showed my pituitary gland is very enlarged and pressing on my brain and my TSH levels are totally out of control. I also have a growth in the centre of my brain which could be a pineal cyst or something worse also creating pressure on

Any reason not to start supplements?
Hello. I already take levothyroxine but went to the gp feeling generally unwell. I got a call to say b12 157 (range 197-771) ferritin 10 (range 13-150) folate 2.7 (range 3.9-26.8) hb 118(range 115-160) and that I’d have to start supplements. But none were prescribed but mentioned doing coeliac bloods
