GP appointment and blood tests - will recent steroid injection skew results?
Afternoon everyone, I had a GP appointment yesterday to discuss my symptoms. Went through everything that has happened since the summer. She sent me for blood tests today which included CRP, ESR, Rheumatoid factor and various other tests relating to autoimmune conditions. She insisted I call back for

Hemorrhoids from higher cholesterol
I thought I'd ask if this is common for other people. I suspect my Hemorrhoids have got quite bad as a result of slightly underactive thyroid. My cholesterol is mildly high - 5.7 when it should be below 5. Also I have gilberts syndrome which is high bilirubin. When I fasted or went more than 6 hrs without

Kidney issues because of CLL
Hello all! Anyone had kidney issues related to CLL? I will do the treatment not because of my lab results but because CLL filled my kidneys with white cells and led my to nephrotic syndrome. My hematologist is confident that with the treatment they will start to work again because those with cells

Liver tumor
Hi there, I have been diagnosed 2 years ago with a rear benign condition in my peritoneum. Because of this, I have MRIs and CT scans every 4-5 months.

Weight problems and insensitive people
I've been so self conscious since gaining so much weight from my underactive thyroid that I'm basically a hermit in my own home, I barely go outdoors, for fear of being called up on my weight gain, or "looking well". Today I decided to go outdoors only to bump into an old acquaintance who couldn't resist

Follow up ultrasound for cirrhosis, shown polyp In gallbladder
Hi, looking if anyone has experience/ info on this? is it common, linked to cirrhosis ? It’s completely thrown me as I’ve been feeling healthy since diagnosis last year. This was my first US since. I was hoping for news that my liver looked slightly better than original scan, as I’ve worked my backside

Stopping Injections After 3 Loading Doses
Hi! I’m new here and learning so much from reading all of the posts here. I was diagnosed with low B12 levels earlier on this year, although my PA antibodies came back negative. I was put on injections, and was meant to have 6 over 2 weeks followed by 1 every 3 months, however my GP had to stop them

Acute kidney failure - creatinine is climbing
My hubby's treatment is venetoclax and acalabrutinib (he previously had obinutuzumab too). He is also taking sulfameth trimeth (for ammonia) and valacyclivor (for shingles) dropped from 1200 to 800 mg a day. We just saw a Renal Specialist Dr and she said that they really don't know the full extent

Discoid lupus
Hi. I have just got results of biopsy. I have discoid lupus, I have also had full blood checks and came back clear. Every where I read says discoid lupus only affects the skin. But I have been experiencing joint pain pretty much every part of my body where there's joints, stiffness, extreme fatigue.

Feeling sick after HD (advice for my dad)
Hello! My dad (72) has been on HD for two years* now. Lately, he often finds that his blood pressure drops and he feels sick after he's returned home from dialysis, even if he feels okay during treatment. He says the clinic staff watches his BP closely as well as the amount of fluid they're removing
