Could MCAS a possibility?
Hello everyone, I have been wondering for a while if I could have MACS. Last year I was diagnosed with a Raw Pecan allergy, borderline brazil and salami allergy through raw food skin to skin prick testing and given epi pens. My immunologist at the time did not want to risk it as I have asthma and

folate (as calcium folinate)
hi, I take my T4/T3 at least an hour before my breakfast. I take my B12 supplement and Pink Tribe liposomal vitamin B complex liquid just after breakfast. I’ve been reading the ingredients and am worried in case I should be leaving 4 hours for the vitamin B complex due to the folate mentioning calcium

are CTx numbers supposed to be extremely under range while on prolia?
is that the point of anti resorptive? is P1NP supposed to be upper range on prolia, or lower range on prolia? my Mum's numbers are low. but the tests haven't been done for years, i don't think, and they were run within 3 months of prolia doses, so the ctx would be expected to be low? and Mum's

Who is confused? My surgery or me?
I was asked by the GP to remind him, when I reached 3mg in my tapering, that I should have a synacthen test. I have now done so. However, I am being sent for an ACTH blood test Is this the same thing (I don't think so as I have not been asked to miss the steroid dose and there is no indication that

I am taking synthroid (50 mg) for about 15 years.......after doing my own research there is an effect on bone density. I am 77 and fell and broke my wrist and as I looked at my dexa chart, the bone density has gone down and I had osteoporosis. Synthroid can cause this decline (check on the manufacturer's

New member, looking for alternatives to Thyroid-S
Dear all, I am new to this forum but not to thyroid disease. I was diagnosed with autoimmune hypothyroidism in 1999, at age 29, and put on levothyroxine. I struggled on it for years, tried different brands, but never felt optimal. I needed 200 micrograms a day just to feel human, while doctors kept

I have a diagnosis and it's not hashimotos, it's acromegaly
This is not likely to help many people but it might help the odd one with puzzling symptoms. I had an enlarged right thyroid gland and low potassium two years ago. This gradually developed into all sorts of other symptoms, tingling in hands and feet, incidental arthritis found, muscle aches in back,

Dr. Sanjay Gupta. Cardiologist York. UK. Has anyone had dealings with him?
I realise I will need to be Privately messaged by anyone with information. I have just come across Dr. Gupta and his work about how thyroid issues affect the heart. It’s not the usual stuff about CHD. His information is thyroid specific. A breath of fresh air it would seem. He seems to work both

Does The Thyroid Affect Potassium Levels?
Hi! A bit of a random question but I’ve recently had some bloods taken by my GP surgery and my potassium levels have come back a little low (3.2 range 3.5-5.3) My TSH is 3.06 (range 0.27-4.20), which I think is a little too high although in range, so it got me thinking if there is a link at all between
