Experiences with

Globulin test

Hi My husband went to a specialist a few weeks ago ( Neurologist) she ordered a bunch of blood work to be done. My husband was called into our General regular doctor as he wanted to go over the blood work and we have to wait to talk to the specialist now . He gave my husband a copy of the blood work

hello all My question is about the Pneumovax-23 and Prevnar 13. I got the Prevnar 13 in 2015 The Pneumovax-23 in 2015 as well. Is it time to get these again? I live in the US. On W/W for over 20 years. Having immune globulin infusions for the last 5 years or so. Thank you for any insight.

Are there any negative consequences with the serum-derived Bovine Globulin? Answered by Dr. Jess Armine https://youtu.be/eQx5wUH3sLQ?si=G58AQiDNdLABd-xU

Anyone got a good handle on these, please? The reason I ask is that I have had 3 months of increasingly debilitating fatigue. I take T3 only and was on 100mcg, which took me 70% through the range, I have also tried 125mcg which takes me well over the top, but still tiredddddd. I have tested cortisol

No way to know if this is applicable to those on ADT, but it would seem to be relevant for consideration. The highlighted portion is a useful guide on male sex hormone targets for those testing them. These results might also add support for Morgentaler's [i]"Saturation Model"[/i] for testosterone. Full

A regular question is whether we should test Free T4 and/or T3, or Total T4 and/or T3.

HiJust delving bk in time & got access to some older records! These results are few yrs aft ME diagnosis.

Hi all, I am posting on behalf of my brother in hope of some advice or signposting. I’ll try and keep it as brief as possible - my brother became unwell ten years ago with alopecia totalis, a weird discoid rash and stomach issues. For concurrent years doctors felt he had some kind of ibd/ibs and

I’ve been getting these tested when I do my sex hormones. Then I read something about DHEA and wondered - shouldn’t I always get DHEA too? Is that even a sex hormone ? Then I thought I’d ask you guys … am I missing anything that I should add to my core list of tests to get every time I check sex hormones

I first posted on here over 2 months ago regarding suspected liver disease. After 9 weeks the consultant finally looked at my blood results and am now waiting for a fibroscan.. Does anyone know how long these appointments can take to come through (I first went to the doctor about my blood results on

Hi, When I reported my thyroid results previously to you marvellous, supportive folks I had been told I had Hashimoto's. My Thyroid antibodies were very high. Since then I've eliminated gluten and most cow dairy from my diet. I've had my bloods redone and would be interested in opinions on whether Hashimots's

Hello, Just got my bloods redone for my 3 month review and was so happy to see my t3 was optimal for the first time, yet the rest of the panel has got worse! I was confused how the t4 was low if I needed it to get a good t3? If anyone could explain how this is possible I’d appreciate it. I was sad

Three things came together. First, reading through some of diogenes' papers, second, noticing the old PR Larsen paper, third, that someone expressly mentioned taking aspirin in order to help with blood flow when performing a finger-prick blood sample. (I did try, but I could not find where on the forum

Potentially something to do with transporters, but for the life of me, I cannot find anything anywhere and I can't test CBG where I am (binding globulin for cortisol). I have done an iron IV to see if it helps me with tolerating medication, but it doesn't seem to be the answer.

I have had some tests done recently and I was expecting the liver would be an issue. I have been a heavy drinker for quite some time. I had full bloods done which were all fine. Electrolytes were also fine. The doctor said my LFTs were abnormal, I asked if it indicated Cirrhosis and he said he didn't
