T3 fallen
I have my private Endo appt next month. Did my MMH blood test last week but as I bought the pack 5 months ago I wondered if there could be a problem with the results. My previous blood test in Feb after starting T3 just before Christmas showed my T3 had risen to 5.9 (3.1-6.8) from 3.9 and my hypo symptoms

Blood Test Results
Hello, I would be grateful for some advice regarding these results. The background is that my Levothyroxine dose was reduced from 100mcg to 75 in early February 2024, due to a TSH only test which was below range. By late March I could barely function so I had a private test prior to the GP's TSH test

On a blood test from my GP 3 weeks ago the results showed blasts, where previously I hadn’t had any. Obviously this caused me a great deal of worry. I had blood taken on Tuesday and spoke to haematologist this afternoon. He said he’d looked at the blood film on both tests himself and couldn’t see anything

Levothyroxine - saint or devil?
Help please. I had thyroiditis some years ago (lost 2 dress sizes - great) but then went hypo. I was first prescribed levothyroxine 75mcg, later increased to 100mcg. However, since starting the meds, I became heat intolerant, gained far too much weight and am always exhausted (not menopausal - went

New and Needing Advice
Hi All, I am new here. I am 26 years old and was told 2 years ago(in 2022) that I probably have fibromyalgia. I was doing okay then, but now I am in a lot of pain. I was recently told again this year that I probably have fibromyalgia, but I'm still not sure if its true. The first time I was told was

Have I cardiac haemolytic anaemia or haven't I?
I have been borderline anaemic for some years and it seems that my TAVI a year ago and the consequent medication may have pushed me over the threshold. On May 31 a haematologist wrote to my GP following tests on
March 5
to say that "it is likely [that I have] cardiac haemolytic anaemia". But

25mcg Levo and feel worse
I recently posted about being put on Levothyroxine by my GP who referred me to Endocrinologist (still waiting for an appointment). GP put me on 25mcg on a trial basis because NHS test don't show issues with thyroid. My first week on Levo, I felt an improvement in fatigue. I could sing again too!

Woohoo! 1 year anniversary since my quadruple CABG 🙌🏻
Wow! Hard to believe that it’s been a year since I had quadruple bypass heart surgery following an Nstemi heart attack. I am so grateful. This last month has been pretty eventful too. I got the opportunity to thank two people that really contributed to my path of treatment and therefore my rebirth

Carbimazole and confusion
Hi all, hope you are doing well 😊 I already posted some time ago, and for all the results you can check the BIO, as they are the most up-to-date at the moment. In the meantime, my GP referred me for an ultrasound, which I will have on August 13th, and for a consultation with an endocrinologist, which

starting O+A in a couple of weeks
I've been on watch and wait going on 7 years. I feel very good and I wouldn't know I had anything if my blood test didn't come out wonky. Went to the hematologist today and am in need of treatment. I'm starting O+A in a couple of weeks and getting nervous. I think I'm most worried about navigating

Blood Test Rip-off
I've received an email from privatebloodtests.co.uk which is part of Blue Horizon. They offer traditional blood tests at astronomic prices. No doubt they will have 'offers' but my view is that we should, when possible, boycott these companies. There is great temptation to see more blood tests as better

Hello!
Hey folks, Not entirely sure where to start here, first post. - I recently had a cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) due to some on-going issues which were identified as gallstones. - During this, and also backed up by biopsy/blood tests it seems I have some issues going on with my liver L3 fibrosis

I have hypothyroididm and have had it for years. I used to medicate myself, but can no longer afford to do so. I am now taking 100 ml of levothyroxine. I now seem to hae a problem with high blood pressure, hot flushes and what I call adrenalin punches in the stomach. I would not say I was ill,
