Leaky Heart Valve and various symptoms
Pleased to have found this group. I recently saw my GP about some loud, intrusive tinnitus. I've had tinnitus for years but this was more severe and a bit worrying. She thought it might be pulsatile and sent me for an ECG, which revealed an anomaly. I then had an echocardiogram, which revealed a leaky

How soon can I re-test folate levels?
After getting a low folate blood test, I have changed my diet to greatly increase folate intake (can't tolerate any folate supplement). How soon can I take another blood test to see if my levels have come up? It has been 3 weeks since I changed my diet.

The party is over …
Hi Everyone, Well, that dripping tap must have got me, finally!! No symptoms but a routine Rheumy appt preceded by the usual blood tests revealed that my CRP is over 100 😱 and my ESR is 80 something. But I feel no pain, except for the usual little niggles that I thought came with being nearly 70.

Thyroid test calculator: Any changes desired?
Hi all, I wrote and support the blood tests calculator (https://thyroid.chingkerrs.online/ ). I am on Jury service for the next two weeks and wonder if there are a few improvements I could work during the expected waits? Some thoughts * toggle (and convert) between international (SI) units and US

Cramp
I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your most informative and positive replies and support for my husband and his severe cramp. I have purchased some of the things recommended but feel that the best way forward now is blood tests and take it from there. Getting him to take anything

I have posted on here before about my son. It started with a rash on his ear which then went to his face (bridge of his nose and eye brows). Around the time the rash started he also had canker sores appear. The rash lasted a couple of months but seems to pretty much have faded, however he is having

Hi im just looking for some advice if possible. 2 weeks ago today I woke up with a really tight chest and a feeling that something was sat on my chest! I got extremely anxious but through deep breathing I calmed myself down and went back to sleep, following on from that I’ve had an uncomfortable feeling

REFERRAL TO THE FORUM
"Long time member of PMRUK. What I thought was r/o, new physical evidence has brought me here. The PMR community has been great for the past 2 years, but they believe I may receive better guidance here in the Myositis forum. Honestly, as you read my latest post in the PMR forum I may not belong here

Blood test
I know from this community how important it is to test first thing in the morning but my doctors' surgery is very stretched and my blood test appointment can't be changed from late morning. I'm not sure I can last without any food until 30 minutes after the appointment. How bad is it to eat something

How do I update my bio?
My bio on Health Unlocked website needs updating. How do I do that? I can't seem to update my bio from 2023. I'm interested in adding PSAs and testosterone quarterly blood tests from 2023 and 2024. My good new is that my PSA has been 0.01 "nearly undetectable" for more than a year. My MO said don't

Stop Ibrance?
My HB and Platelets have been bad for a while. Mainly because I haven' eaten anything. I am now eating again and feel much better (I had other reasons), but she has ordered me back for new blood tests and wants me to change to Xeloda. I want a chance to get my appetite back up and eating normally before

Hello, After many years of joint pain and 5+ years of eye troubles, I was given a series of blood tests including autoantibodies. I've come back positive three times now for dsdna autoantibody (the second two tests simply being repeats). The numbers (I think) were fairly low positives - between 48 and
