GPs! Lack of knowledge.
Continuation of RLS with GP. Ferritin levels are 50, normal apparently! I take Ropinirole 4mg and 210mg iron tablets to try and raise Ferritin. The GP keep stating that my levels are normal and there was very little she could do or suggest…her knowledge was very limited. How would you continue this

Food as medicine recommendations
I am educating myself via all the posts (thank you to all the regular posters). Is there a summary anywhere or a recommended book of how to ensure you are making the most of what you eat / don’t eat? For example, I just read that I need to eat steak and chips (great news) to help support optimal ferritin

PGTA testing embryos made from donor eggs
Hello I appreciate there will be differing views and experiences with this. Has anyone PGTA tested their egg donation embryos? I have had 2 miscarriages and TFMR at 15 weeks (all own eggs) due to chromosomal issue that we didn't know about until we went for our NHS scan at 12 weeks. I will never forget

Tweaking T3
Hello, Sorry to post yet again. I've gotten so much advice already and I will most probably have a go at the single dosing of T3 in the fall, but for now I have to make due with my split doses. I was feeling a bit off lately: increasing pain (back, leg, muscle, knee) in my right leg. Something that

So for the last 4 months I’ve been having pain in my muscles and head as well as tingling and a burning sensation. Also extreme fatigue and a red rash on my cheeks and trouble swallowing.My doctor gave me prednisone to treat because crp and esr were high. She also started me on plaquenil. Now before

Brand of Thyroxine
I have been on Teva for years but want to go back to a previous brand that I used to be on but cannot remember the brand name. I want one that does not have too many fillers like Teva has. I am currently on 75mg daily. Any recommendations. Thanks

Ft3 295% 3 hours after dose, taking 95 t4 and 30 t3 in one go (Armour and Thybon T3)
Hey all, I am currently not splitting the above dose and I'm getting weird symptoms every single day. My ft3 is 90% of range in the morning, but it goes up to 295% after the dose. Ft4 is 54% after 3 hours and about 38% in the morning. Would splitting it help with hypo and hyper symptoms? I seem to be

No prescription
Hi all. I've found a source of T3 online but it asks for a copy of the prescription OR doctors opinion or medical record. Obviously I don't have a prescription! Anyone know if a record showing and confirming I have hypothyroidism is enough? Thanks 😊

Things just keep going from bad to worse with me. So sorry for the long post but I really need some help because I don't know what's going on I really don't and I don't know how to try and balance things anymore, it's all beyond me now. Near end April this year I did a full panel, rather than link

Never ending balanitis and lichen sclerosus
It all started about 6 years ago when I began to notice red spots on my penis and foreskin that appeared and disappeared occasionally. They only caused me discomfort when present, in the form of itching and a burning sensation. I consulted a dermatologist who told me to stop eating sweets and it would

Help, Can anybody interpret these results?
Can someone help me make sense of these test results? MC = Medichecks. NHS = GP Surgery, BH = Blue Horizon. What is screaming at me over these last 6 bloods is that they are all fasting, taken around 9.00am. The very last results were based on supplementation of B12 sublingual spray 300 mcg x1 day Thorpe
