Flare after short synacthen test
I've been on Pred since April 2022, starting at 15mg and have reduced to 3.5mg - it has taken work, but I've used Dorset Lady's super slow reduction protocol and it has got me to where I am now. I had a short synacthen test 3rd July to see if I would be able to come off Prednisolone, but had to immediately

total knee replacement triggering RLS
I had a left knee replacement surgery April 10th this year. My right knee is also “bone on bone” from osteoarthritis and I’m dreading getting a second one as its been a rough recovery, and the RLS return has me worried too. 4 months out I’m getting stronger week by week although I’m definitely not

Hypothyroid to Hyperthyroid??
Hi all, I’m hoping someone here might be able to cast some light on what’s happening to me at the moment. I have been hypothyroid for the last 37 years and have been on 100mcg all that time, never any problems. However, my last routine checkup my blood tests came back and one of them was 64.4 just

Update from GP re blood in urine
Phone call first thing from Surgery. Please could you drop in a fresh urine sample. OK yes no problem, take it to GP surgery and nurse says, "will test now" Hm yes still very small traces of blood and also small evidence of Leuokocytes, could be due to UTI. Just check with GP, she says, GP

Purging
For a while (4months) I was borderline anorexic. My weight loss really upset my wife so I started eating again, which was hard but doable. Now I'm struggling with purging. I can't do it after most meals because it's too noticeable to my wife but when she's asleep or at work I purge at least a couple

Nightime episodes IBS?
For nearly 3 years I have had an increasing number of nights where I wake about 04.30 with an intense frontal headache, pounding heart, feeling agitated, needing a wee and I am windy. I was diagnosed with IBS some years ago but during these nighttime episodes I don’t have any other stomach symptoms.

Heart palpitations - could these results be why?
I’m recently having heart palpitations and wondered if my latest blood test results could be showing my thyroxine dose is not right. Can anyone help please? Many thanks.

Elevated liver enzymes
Hi, my daughter has Graves and her latest blood test shows elevated liver enzymes, is this because she's on carbimazole. Prior to taking carbimazole her liver function was normal.

Cortisol Blood Test
Hi everyone, spoke to my GP regarding cortisol levels, felt sure I was dipping from mid afternoon onwards what with salt cravings etc. He wants me to go to hospital for blood tests tomorrow, would it be better to go later in the day? Think he wants me to go in the morning but I think levels are high

Nitrofurantoin - good or bad?
Not sure that this is posted in the best place, but I don't seem to be able to access any other links atm. I have been prescribed this antibiotic for traces of blood in urine just over 2 days ago. 50mg to be taken at night. Only on the third dose so it's early days, but had quick urine test done

Carbimazole and taste loss
Hi, I'm new here and was just wondering if anyone else has experienced taste loss whilst on Carbimazole. I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in December and was put on 40mg at first. At the end of January I suddenly lost all taste. After a blood test at 6 weeks my endocrinologist halved my dose but

Heart worries
Hi All, I have been having an ache in my chest for a number of weeks. The other night I woke up with chest pain. Ended up in A & E and had all the usual tests - ecg., bloods, chest x-ray. Very conscientious doctor couldn't find a problem although he did say troponin was 'slightly elevated'. Repeated
