Elderly mum exhausted, overweight, unmotivated, yellow tinge skin on sides of face
Hello, I'm really struggling trying to get the GP to sort my mum out. She's nearly 88yrs old and in the last few years has put on an excessive amount of weight, she was a size 12, now she is almost a 20! She is absolutely exhausted, just says she has no energy at all and barely gets dressed each day

Anyone had an iron infusion
My husband has CLL and has a problem with low B12 and folate. His ferritin is also stubbornly low for which he’s been recommended an iron infusion for deficiency anaemia and injections for his B12 deficiency I’m ok about the B12 injections but for some reason feel a bit nervous about the infusion but

90% good news
Ralph doing well and happy with progress. Last Tuesday SALT said leave cuff down for 24 hours from Thursday to Friday morning, and if that went well, leave it down all weekend unless he was in distress. Then the plan was to put in a fenestrated cuffless trachy this Wednesday coming. Best laid plans etc

update on T3 in Crete
spoke to a few pharmacists on the island yesterday who say it’s impossible to find T3 in Crete. Said it’s been unavailable even for the locals, also passed comment that it’s in short supply in Europe.

Thyroid bloods graves
I have finally managed to get my latest blood results added to my NHS app so I can share. This is all new to me so I’m not sure what the results really mean, Graves was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago but I can’t find that test in my app. I’m back on Carbimazole after not taking them for a week as I

Some advice please
Hi, I'm in surgical menopause and have not felt 'well' for a number of years now. I won't bore you with the backstory of my trials and tribulations with HRT, all in the pursuit of feeling well enough to fully function. I've questioned Thyroid for some time, I had tests last September and posted them

Is it over?
I tested using Boots Pregnancy Test Strips on day 10 after 5 day blastocyst transfer using midday urine sample. It was negative. Most likely it won’t turn positive. 😔

TSH non existent after Thyroidectomy
Help …. I was diagnosed with Graves and hyperthyroidism in Jan 22, having my levels go up and down like a yo-yo the endocrinologist suggested having a thyroidectomy. Which I had in Sept 23, after the op I was prescribed 150mcg of levothyroxine, and after 6 weeks a post op blood test, I hadn’t realised

11yo latest results
Hello All, Here are my daughters latest results, I’m still battling with GP plus NHS consultants to get anywhere. She has only been off any B12/folate for 5 weeks (she does eat B12 fortified foods) but has been taking iron. Her medical history is low platelets but she obviously also has hashimotos.

switch from compound to Thybon Henning
Morning all, I’m currently on compound t3 IR as I needed to sort adrenals and increase very slowly. I’m still not optimal but when I am, I’d like to switch to Thybon Henning due to costs. Is it as simple as swapping 10mcg compounded for 10mcg Thybon Hemming (1/2 a 20mcg tablet)? Would appreciate

Opinion on my B12 and folate tests, and what are ideal levels?
I got the results back for my b12 and folate a few days ago. My folate is low, so I have changed my diet to get my folate up that way. I can't tolerate any supplement form even in small doses (folate, folinic, folic acid etc). What about my active b12 - Monitor My Health says it is fine, is that right

Methylprednisolone: my experience
I just wanted to post my experience of methylprednisolone IV in case it might help someone one day. I was in a big flare so my rheumatologist suggested IV methylprednisolone once a week for 3 weeks. It all happened so quickly I didn't know what to expect and I had a hard time finding any information.

Breathing and standing!
Hello. A disparate couple of questions for you with longer term experience of PV please? I'm having a slightly uncomfortable breathing symptom. Have had it before but it goes after a few days/weeks and doesn't stop me exercising; it's just unpleasant. Previously thought it was due to low ferritin

Using turmeric to lower high ferritin
These are my latest and I’m concerned about high ferritin. It’s been over range at least two years since taking high doses of liquid ionic iron for very low ferritin. Sometimes it’s significantly lower than this but always over, lately Buddy’s post this morning about high dose turmeric piqued my interest
