Change to Thyroid Tests after 40 years of the same dose of Throxine
I am having a battle with my GP. Diagnosed with underactive thyroid when I was 26 and I am now 70 and for past 40 years have been on 150 thyroxine which worked perfectly for me. In April 21 I got diagnosed with PMR and put on 15 mg of steroids. I eat a low carb diet, take Vit D and have done a slow transition

Newbie Hypothyroid - looking for advice please
Hi I was diagnosed low thyroid in August and given 25mcg levothyroxin. I felt a bit better after taking it. I am a self employed single parent with two disabled children. I have not been able to work very much for over eight months now and the house and garden are in a horrendous state. Nothing

Oh dear!
After gastroscopy I have been sticking to a dairy and gluten free diet, managed to get down to 3.5mg Prednisolone and was doing really well but with increasing pain , I'm back up to 5mg. Do I contact GP they seem to have forgotten me? Or persevere on my own!

Great results this week
I was really pleased with the results of my annual Senior Checkup this past week. After a long lapse during Covid and lockdown, eating cakes and biscuits etc and obviously putting on weight, I went back to the LCHF lifestyle a few months ago and not only have I lost over a stone in weight (18 lbs)

Worried about gallstones
Hi there. I am very worried about my mum who is 80 and has gallstones. About a year and a half ago, she became very ill with cholecystitis and a blocked bile duct. She was admitted to hospital and was treated for what I suspect was biliary sepsis and the blocked bile duct was cleared by ECPR. The surgeon

Quick run down of my situation. I have gallbladder sludge and am having gallbladder out mid Nov and also have arrhythmias/tachycardia which needs no treatment, and have been discharged by cardiologist. Staysure/Avanti will not cover me until I have had my surgery( which I understand) but will not cover

There Is Hope For CKD — My Story
I wanted to share my experience and journey with CKD with you all. I was diagnosed with CKD stage 3 about four years ago when my eGFR went to 57. I saw two nephrologists over the course of four years and had many renal tests done as well as blood work every six months. My eGFR numbers kept decreasing

SWITCHING TO INSULIN INJECTION FROM ORAL
As a Type 2, I have been managing my fasting sugar level of around 120 since the late 90s very successfully by following the devices of my USA-qualified Endocrinologist. My regular diet centered around LCHF with Diamicrone 80 twice a day. Covid-19 changed my whole system. After taking the 2nd dose
