Hello! I am 20 years deep at age 40 into basically helping doctors regulate my thyroid after a horrible medical overdose at age 17 my thyroid was never the same ….perhaps it was like that as a kid from a traumatic move because I gained 40 pounds seemingly overnight, however I didn’t become medicated

Diagnosed with CLL in October 2022 W&W
Hello. I am recently diagnosed with CLL (10/22, 13q/mutated) with current WBC of 15k and Lymphs at 10k. I've always had pretty good body weight but since diagnosis, I've been especially mindful of getting all my blood markers in the best possible position to make my body as inhospitable as possible

Paleontology Diet – By Dr Barry Durrant-Peatfield
Excerpt from the transcript of a talk given by the late Dr Barry Durrant-Peatfield at one of TPA's Annual Conferences several years ago.
I'm posting this here because we've recently had a few questions/posts about extreme diets such as the carnivor diet. Personally, I think what Dr Peatfield

Zoe food plan
Hi, wondering if anyone on here is trying the 'Zoe' food plan and, if so, how are you finding it? Apparently, you are given a glucose monitor, blood and poo tests and after the results are analysed you are given an individualised food (not diet!) plan to follow tailored to your body's needs. Tim Spector

18 months of diet and lifestyle contributed to the effectiveness of Casodex and Lupron
Us layman are confused and stressed out about all the side effects of drugs vs quality of life. In my 18 months since diagnosed with PC I have changed to plant base diet, healthy lifestyle, spirituality and stress reduction. I don’t eat processed foods, I drink purified water with no pesticides or fluoride

Hypochondria
Hypochondria, thy name is Kevin. My first bout with cancer was when I was 5 yrs old. I was just learning to read and was leafing through Life Magazine. I saw a poster-board titled, "The Seven Deadly Signs of Cancer." A few days prior I had noticed a lump near my nipple. When I read The Seven

... what, then, do we die of?
New study of SEER data below [1]. The old comforting words that men with PCa "die with the disease, not of it" does not apply once mets occur, of course, but is largely true for local disease (the majority of cases in the U.S., due to screening practices.) It has long been known that men with PCa

Urgent help please: Getting an NHS GP to agree to blood tests for a private endocrinologist
Hello, I have a GP appointment in about an hour and it's to discuss having a blood test that has been ordered by a private endocrinologist.

Supplements and self-care
Hi everyone, I am new to this site and to this forum. It has been a wealth of information. I know there have been plenty of other threads, regarding supplements, and how we take care of ourselves, but some of them have aged and just wanted to start a fresh one. I am 53 and was diagnosed with stage

Distortion of Hba1c test with levo
Hi Someone asked me to give further info about my claim that HbA1c tests cannot be relied upon if you are being treated with levothyroxine. I can't find that request now so I'm starting a new thread. The clearest statement is on the American Thyroid Association website.

Vitamin D Status & Cancer Mortality
New German study of British data below [1]. I was born on the SW coast of England at latitude 50 degrees. (Edinburgh, Scotland is at 56 degrees.) St. John's in Newfoundland, Canada, is at latitude 47.6 degrees, so one might expect the average Brit to have a much poorer vitamin D status than the

Advice or any comments on latest numbers please 🙏
I had my blood drawn at 8:00 AM / 24 hours after last dosage of 125 Levothyroxine and 10 Liothyronine. All in one dose early in the morning - usually around 6:00 AM. With the assistance of the calculators I am: 50% through the reference range on T3 73.68% through the reference range on T4 -10.79%

High TSH, Low FT4 Help Please
I have Hashimotos and just had new labs completed. I've been taking Cytomel for about a year now, as my FT3 was previously an issue (low). Now that it has improved some, my FT4 is low and my TSH at an all time high. There are no endos near me that will take my insurance. Was hoping someone could

How long to improve glucose
How long did it take for you to improve your blood sugar levels or eliminate T2 diabetes with diet and exercise? Been eating healthy and exercising for about 2 months and lost 5 lbs but fasting blood sugar hasn’t improved. Does it take a long time or does it depend on how much weight you lose?

WOW, noticing today, after some weak days at 5mg prednisone, I am again feeling good and energetic, added meth and hydroxy dropped metformin
I was at 5 a few weeks go, but too hastily dropped and went to 2.5, and on the 3rd day at 2.5 felt terrible. Jumped back to 10 and then 7.5. And since I have gone back to 5, after maybe a week at 5, I am again feeling great, better than I did the last time I was at 5. There are some differences now,
