Statins/Eczema/Psoriasis/Itching
I've been on 40mg Atorvastatin since my HA in May 2021. Last November I noticed I was doing a lot more itching. Had a blood test, my bilirubin and ALT levels were raised. Whilst trying to sort that out, I noticed u was breaking out in blotches/red spots and what look like small fungal patches. My GP

TSH and freet4 levels
Hi what does TSH level 4.73 and free T4 level 8.8 mean? I have been struggling for years with tiredness (I also have fibromyalgia). This tiredness is different. I'm struggling with it now. Achieving very little. Every time I have a blood test, which is not often cause I get told everything fine, no

Blood test interpretation
Hallo everyone, I requested a blood test to cover a number of things - not sure this one covers everything or maybe there's more to come. I wonder if anyone might be willing or have the time to help with interpretation. ESR looks OK - I requested CRP as well but doesn't appear to be there unless I

signatera increase
has anyone doing the signatera testing (ctDNA blood analysis) had a small increase? I was 0 or negative for the past year, but most recent blood test shows 0.03. They said it's too small to really analyze, but I don't like it. We will redraw blood in a few weeks. I know this new science for us with MBC

Hashimoto’s or Graves’ symptoms or…? Help to clarify please.
Hi everybody! I’m new here. Would be very grateful for your advice. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 17 years ago. It was in different country not in the UK. I have never been on medication as I was told if my T4 level is ok I don’t need any pills. I’m now in UK for about 5 years. I’ve never seen endocrinologist

scaring of the heart
Hi 😊😊 I had emergency surgery for perforated bowel Dec 22. I was in hospital for 8 weeks. There were many complications but I’m still here. I had an ICD fitted, this because I had 2 cardiac arrests 🙈. I’ve had many scans and MRI and they found scaring on my heart ❤️ I’ve had genetics blood test

more of Dr. Jones' '2 minutes versions'
from Dr Jones' book - Cholestyramine (Questran) is the first line treatment for the itching. If this doesn't work, then taking Rifampicin is the next line of therapy. Even when this is effective, it can make the liver worse. It is very important to check liver function tests after taking Rifampicin
