Given all clear but still unsure of something pending
Hi so I was taken to hospital the other day with the following symptoms: Heavy uncomfortable feeling in the central upper chest, breathless , aching in the upper back more central than anything. I am a 53 year old lady generally in good health and I just don't feel "right". I still have the heavy uncomfortable

All that glisters… Not in the least clear whether this is likely to be of interest or significance to anyone. But I do think that the impact of anything on thyroid-related enzymes is an important avenue. [i]Chem Biol Interact . 2021 Oct 15;109709. doi: 10.1016/j.cbi.2021.109709. Online ahead of print

Total thyroidectomy
Hi After suffering from breathlessness for a few months, I underwent various tests in April 2021 to try and find the cause. During a lung CT to see if I had any blood clots, I was advised that my thyroid was very large, not in the right location, and multi-nodular and could be the cause of the breathing

Hi all. Well 4 1/2 years after my bypass surgery I found myself with similar angina pains although things went slightly differently this time. At first I think I was in denial about the pain 'was it imagined' 'was it indigestion'? In the end I could ignore it no longer so last Monday (18th) I phoned

Heart palpitations since vaccine. Myocarditis?
Myocarditis? I had my second moderna vaccine 21/9/21. I was flu like a couple of days, then heart palpitations started. I wake a few times in the night gasping for breath or with my heart one pound like it's missed a beat. I can't run, workout or yoga anymore. I have to walk slowly or stop on poor dog

Possible explanation for lack of hepatic B12 storage
I've seen a few posts on this forum regarding the seemingly inexplicable variations in B12 dosing schedules needed to keep different individuals from experiencing signs of deficiency. Furthermore, it seems that every MD believes one should store enough B12 in the liver for lengthy periods of time without

Does this sound ok?
My adult daughter was recently in hospital with a prolapsed disc and had a blood test which showed Hb of 10. Her GP did an iron profile and B12 as her uncle and grandfather had PA. B12 was 169 and ferritin 13 and HCT MCV and transferrin results abnormal. He is starting her on loading B12 injections

I'm not making a big deal, am I?
My Lupus has been attacking my kidneys and I have been in chemo for a little bit now. So far seems to be going well. Yesterday I had a sore throat and a mild temp (37degrees) so I phoned the chemo hotline who then said since no temp spike they were happy to refer me to GP, GP prescribed antibiotics and

Cardiomyopathy from t3?
I have been on thyroid replacement hormones for some time now. Maybe a couple years? I’ve started with dosages. I always got bloodwork at trough readings, and my free t3 would usually come back low. Because if this, my doctors always increased my dosage. Eventually I worked myself up to 50/150 t3/T4

Iron/bloods... confused!
Hi, I was diagnosed with iron deficiency anaemia in May and have been taking iron (gentle iron) and recently had a blood test to see if it had improved. I was annoyed to find that they didn't test ferritin again, just a full blood count. My haemoglobin is now 135 (range 120-150) so bang on. I spoke

Interdependance of iron load and thyroid function
The interrelationship between iron load and thyroid function is pretty well accepted, but I post here a paper showing the effect in children (can extrapolate safely to adults I think). It underlines the need for good iron loading to help rule out or confirm hypothyroidism.
