high liver enzymes
Hello there. I was wondering if anyone had any experiences or knowledge over what I’m going through right now. Recently I had my blood test done. My ALT,AST, and alkaline phosphates came out super high (131, 89, 146) respectfully. I was struggling with a really bad flu at the time of these tests. Could

Finally got Ruxolinitib
Today I picked up my first ruxolinitib tablets, to start on Monday, after the last blood tests are back from the lab. This has been a marathon of nearly a years effort, to get access to Rux. I will start 20 Mg twice a day and 1 x 300 mg of Allopurinol. I have been surprised to start with this fairly

Imbalance Issues from CLL treatment?
Hello, I live in Minnesota and was diagnosed with CLL in Oct 2022 and my oncologist at the Masonic Cancer Center put me on the O and V treatment which started in Dec 2022. I finished the O in May 2023 and the V in Dec 2023. Latest blood test has all my counts in the normal range except Abs Lymphocytes

Iron levels
HiI'm 12 weeks pregnant and expecting twins. The midwife asked me a number of questions and said I was high risk for low iron so said I had to start taking iron tablets daily (322mg). However, I just got blood test results back and my iron levels were fine. I asked if I still had to take them and she

iron low reason ?
Hi all I saw my Gp again regarding the ferritin I’m on and it’s a low dose and I’m only little bit low in iron but now he wants to check if I’m bleeding anywhere ? So I have to do a home poo test to rule anything else lout ! But of course I’m worried sick now 😩

A very unwelcome visitor
I posted in January about being discharged from hospital cardiology after I declined a second ablation because I’d been AF free for over 12 months. Unfortunately, last Saturday AF appeared out of the blue! I only discovered it by chance as I was not aware of any pulse issues. I had a slight headache

Rise in CA 125
I had a blood test today which shows my CA 125 has risen from 260 to 380. I’ve read that normal range is considerably lower so should i be concerned? Will obviously speak to my oncologist but not sure when. Thanks in advance J

Thyroid results-Hashimotos?
Hello, Looking for some help in interpreting thyroid results. I've been testing privately over the last two years. Does this show Hashimotos and would it be enough for a GP to take seriously? Since having my son three years ago I've had many unexplained symptoms - weight gain, swollen legs, fatigue,

Advice on vitamin results please
I did a Thriva (good system) test recently for B12, D, Ferritin and Folate. Unfortunately folate not available as blood cells burst but the following are my results. I'm not familiar with how Thriva lay to their results table but they all looked good except possibly B12? B12 Active 71.2pmol D 205

Private blood test providers
hello My nutritionist suggested recently that Medichecks blood tests are possibly not as good as they might be. Not sure what this is about, but can anyone suggest some other UK private blood testing facility that is reliable? Thank you

vegan, thyroid test & iodine
hello I have symptoms of hypothyroidism but haven’t been diagnosed. I have a thyroid function blood test in 1 week. I am vegan and take an iodine supplement as I don’t eat seaweed or use iodised salt. Should I continue to take my iodine tablet up till the test date or should I stop taking it?

what multivitamin/mineral/trace element would people recommend buying and taking? I have hypo and take 100 levo daily currently. Am about to order the mesichecks blood test recommended on here with finger prick although if blood draw is better will order that.

Statins and B12 deficiency
During a Lung Health check recently, lungs were fine but I was found to have coronary artery calcification- which meant that I had to see a GP. I do not know the extent or severity of the calcification. Her advice was to start taking statins. I managed to get her to request some blood tests first.

Post heart attack
Hello again, I posted on here a few months back regarding my husbands palpitations. Things have moved on a bit since then , he has been having random chest pain and saw the doctor, he reassured him that the pain was most likely muscle strain … not sure about that . He had recent blood tests as he is

Revisiting the Zoledronic acid pros & cons
Hi folks, I was offered zoledronic acid two years ago and was so freaked out by possible side effects that I declined. At the time I was at a much lower dose of Pred and naively thought I would be off it by now, that my calcium absorption would return to normal and I'd be able to rebuild my bones naturally

More tests/ moving clinic / Dr.Shehata
So an update: After another failed implantation in Dec I’ve just had my follow up consultation with my clinic. I really like the consultant, she works both nhs & private. I think she works at the Lister , so I may follow her there. She has also recommended the fertility clinic at UCLH London .

GP requests blood tests after injections
My daughter has asked her GP for B12 injections (I won't always be around to do them) she has been called in for a blood test, however stating NICE guidelines didn't help. She has previously been misdiagnosed with MS and even her neurologist wrote in a letter last summer that nothing abnormal was found
