Ferritin Questions
Hi everyone. I self inject b12, 3x per week. I also take a daily dose of methylfolate. In the past both of these have been extremely low, along with very low ferritin. Of late I have wondered if my iron was dropping, so requested bloods a couple of weeks ago. Folate happily is pretty good at 19( at

Clear liver on ultrasound but GGT and other markers rising.
Late 50s female, and TBH, I've always enjoyed wine. The whole dining experience thing and decompressing from a stressful job, wine has, in the past, helped. However, In the autumn of last year, I developed a pain in my right side. I went to the DR. Bloods revealed a GGT of 148. The GP told me to cut

Dull pain back of head and neck.
My hubby has had ongoing issues with his left ear, doc thought he had an ear infection, was given antibiotics, didn’t help. Then he started with headaches which was unusual for him. He then had a fullness feeling in his head, constantly tired and a dull pain at the back of his head. Also has tinnitus

Any advice, post angiogram
I have a relative, currently 67 years of age. At age 36 had 3 angioplasties done, at age 55 had quintuple bypass and now at age 67 recently had an angiogram. Family history 9 siblings all have high cholestrol. Father deceased from colon cancer at age 41 too long ago didn't test for cholestrol. Mother

Bra after lung surgery?
What bras did you find most comfortable post surgery or maybe I should be asking, what bras did you find most tolerable? (Not initially after but a few weeks after surgery). Thanks in advance for your responses. I'm asking on behalf of someone else. Also, we are currently working to create a lung cancer

Post OHS lung issues with cold
Hi all. I’m post OHS, 6 months ago. Have noticed after walks in the cold a grim chest ache, normally goes after an hour or so. Yesterday was outside for a good couple hours, ambling 3 miles in the cold. “ lung pain “ persisted overnight and into today. Does this ring any bells for anyone after

How Do Those on T3 or Combo Therapy Navigate TSH Obsessed Doctors
After my pitiful NHS results in December ( before starting self sourced T3) my GP increased my Levo to 200mcg a day. I haven't been taking that much, obviously as I'm taking 150mcg of Levo and 12.5mgs of T3. The GP I spoke to said retest February and unfortunately my surgery have been uncharacteristically

Zoladex experience
Just wanted to hear other people's experiences on Zoladex if possible because I don't know if my symptoms are all in my head or I'm just being made to feel that way by the consultant. Who's only advice every time I go for a review every couple of months day just keep going with it a little bit longer

Blood test interpretation
Hallo everyone, I requested a blood test to cover a number of things - not sure this one covers everything or maybe there's more to come. I wonder if anyone might be willing or have the time to help with interpretation. ESR looks OK - I requested CRP as well but doesn't appear to be there unless I

Pregnancy: Stage 4 endometriosis and some adenomyosis
Hi All I am wondering if there’s anyone who has had a successful pregnancy, despite having stage 4 endometriosis and some adenomyosis, with no surgery involved? I would like to know if it’s possible for inspiration. Thanks for your time.
