Can't lose weight !
I have underactive thyroid, and am really overweight ( 138 kg ). For the past 4 weeks I have been on 1500 calorie diet and walking one hour a day. The result = 1 lb loss ! What am I doing wrong ? I take 125mg Levothyroxine daily and wait an hour before having breakfast. I am thinking of taking a Blue

A useful option-gastro resistant empty capsules
a post yesterday reminded me to tell you all that I’ve been taking my preds in gastro resistant empty capsules for a couple of months now. This means I can take them without food around midnight. But I have also taken them at 11pm ish and not noticed any difference. I asked a gp if I should still take

Gastric Parietal Cell Antibody
Just wondering whether any members have had this test? I'm not really thinking about those who have had a B12 deficiency (or suspected Pernicious Anaemia) followed up by this test. Rather has anyone had done spontaneously as the link below [i]appears[/i] to imply. As I read it, the words say GPC should

Is it worth doing pernicious anemia test with active B12 of 68?
I'm working on getting my levels of B12, folate, ferritin and D up to ideal levels, if I can, for my thyroid. I recently got a B12 result from monitor my health of 68 pmol/L (range 38-210). I have read that you can still have B12 deficiency even if your B12 is around my level (I heard over 70 is needed

New PA diagnosis
Hi all Recently found to have autoimmune gastritis with stomach polyps. I also have Hashimotos (autoimmune thyroid addressed & on meds) and ckd stage 3 I was given the B12 loading dose of 6 injections. I read since a high intake of B12 is not good for the kidneys? Does anyone know if this is the case

all aspects of liver research
In the article that was posted below, I know this is not something many of us want to face at anytime in our PBC journey. This is, however, a reality for some of us who did progress to this point in our disease. I have to find some real hope that researchers are working on all aspects of PBC. There are

No thyroid
Hi, all the posts are about thyroid problems and taking levo for underactive thyroid, I'm taking levo 50mg and 75mg on alternate days. Can anyone tell me if taking tiromel or the unipharma tablets would be any use fo r someone who has had a total thyroidectomy. At the moment I feel as though I'm sleeping

Medication not working
I’ve had rheumatoid arthritis for nearly 20years. I’ve tried, methotrexate, Arava, adalimimab, entanercept, ruituxan, filgotinib, baracitinib and a few others that aren’t biologics. The problem is, they don’t work for me. Has anyone else had this issue and if so what are you taking now. I’m at my wits

Travel
My husband has decompensated alcohol related liver disease with ascites, abstinent for 7 months. We would like to get to Germany to see his family for a month in our motorhome and wondered if a) anyone has travelled abroad with this condition and b) if anyone has experience of the insurance companies

Bloating
Hi....I've battled with IBS for many years and following endoscopy and gastroscopy I was diagnosed with a lazy stomach. Dietary controls and careful eating seemed to keep things under control with minimal 'episodes' of wind, bloating and diarrhea. Fast forward a few years and following a prolonged course
