Blood test this morning
I have got a blood test at 9.15 in private clinic setting. I took t4 at 6.15 yesterday morning. Do I take the t4 now before blood test as may be false low? Previously high t4 after taking thyroxine (NHS) and also after MMH finger prick test (without taking t4). Thank you for any help and advice.

Cyst delaying ivf - any experiences?
Has anyone had an ovarian cyst delay your ivf cycle? Looking for anyone to share their experiences, specifically how long did the cyst take to go away and what did you do to help it reduce? I’ve been doing down regulation for two weeks now, had my baseline scan last Friday 26/04 when I was suppose

Baricitinib (Olumiant) side effects - did they improve over time?
I finally took the plunge to have Olumiant on Monday 22nd after getting my blood tests/vaccines etc. It's been a bit of an up-and-down story so am wondering what other people's experiences have been like. This is a draft of what I'm going to email my Rheumatologist but thought it was worth hearing some

GCA or Occipital Neauralgia
confused. I’ve seen a rheumatologist three times in the last year Re:Temporal Arteritis . I’ve had a biopsy which came back negative, because previously my doctor prescribed steroids for inflammation and head pain. Rheumatologist prescribed 50mg of prednisone after a while to be gradually reduced.

Should go into the OMAHA2a ODM-208 (MK-5684-004): phase 3 trial?
I had my 3 monthly OC visit last week. Blood test is showing 0.3 up from 0.15 six weeks ago. MO is suggesting that I should go into the ODM-208 (MK-5684): phase 3 trial if PSA rises above 1.0. PSA of 1.0 or above is a entry requirement for the trial, presumable to be sure that my current treatment

Update
Hello everyone. Just a little update but first of all I’d like to thank you all for your help over the last few days whilst I was having a meltdown. I’ve had my bloods done this morning before I took levothyroxine but they wouldn’t test for vitamin levels, just calcium & thyroid levels. I had an appointment

Normal LFT but consistent pain
Hi, I havent got hepatologist appointment even after 4 months. Hospital is saying I am in the waiting list. I am experiencing a consistent pain my upper right abdomen. They ordered few blood tests. As per doctors my LFT is normal. I don't even know how it will help me. My LFT was normal back in January

blood test shows high ferritin
just had blood tests done because I have pain in my right pelvic area. Come back with high ferritin. Mines 200 and should be below 150. I googled it and don’t really understand it. Can’t get an appointment with GP for 3 weeks so has anyone on here ever had this result. I’m a bit anxious about it.

Advice for blood test timing & last doses (staggered doses + mistimed t3 history)
Two questions.
1) with staggered Levo dosing … best day to test
Current titration was FROM 100 Levo a day (700 a week) to 112.5 a day (775 a week.) Since I only have 100s at this time, I split them in quarters and added 25 on Mon, Wed, Fri: Mon Tue Wed Thurs Fri Sat Sun 125 100 125

Blood test with reverse T3 and thyroid antibodies
What companies might be best for this test please? however, need a blood draw not a fingerprick draw as it doesn’t suit me.
