Grapefruit
Hello everyone Does anyone know if grapefruit juice interferes with T4/T3 uptake? I know if someone is on statins it has to be avoided I know to avoid Biotin before blood tests but is Nicotimamide ok? Finally has anyone successfully lowered their cholesterol without statins while on T4/T3, I really

Blood results - liver issue
Hello wise ones, Just when I thought things were looking up, another issue raises its head to confuse and frustrate me. I have been on MTX for a year and leflunomide since end of March this year. I really feel like I have turned a corner, especially with my hands and feel quite optimistic for the first

I cannot trust my GP
I have had a GP for 8 yrs who used to categorize everything as depression or anxiety or uncurable or everyone gets it. I used to have gut issue and my GP would just tell me that is normal thing. And I should change my diet I had given up on NHS. I had stopped visiting my GP altogether. However

Hello - I'm about to return to the Mayo for the first review since my previous visit last November. As I've reported here, my last major treatment was chemo with cabazitaxel at the Oncology Center in Nicosia, Cyprus, where I live. This was successful: PSA fell from 83 at the start of chemo to about 3

Palpitations/too much Adrenalin?
I started on a very slow taper from 7.5mg pred. daily to 7mg daily about 2 months ago. At around that time I started getting mild heart palpitations lasting just a few seconds. 2 months later and they were still happening so I took myself to the doctors this week-ECG and blood tests all normal. I am

A little update
Hi all, I just thought I'd give a little update as I've not posted here in about a year and just possibly my experience may be of interest. I am not in ANY way invalidating anyone else's condition or treatment, this is just my story. For years I have struggled with low mood, lacking 'oomph' in life.

How to tell if Rituximab is working?
Are you able to tell if Rituximab is working from changes that show in your blood tests? What specifically would improve or should everything improve?

43 and game over
I’ve just had my first fertility appointment after waiting 8 months. I have had 5 miscarriages (3 being chemicals). I had blood tests done for fertility last year and was told on two separate occasions they were both normal. However have been told by a different doctor yesterday this indicates peri menopause

Are these results "subclinical"?
My latest two blood tests are below. First blood test: TSH: 4.16 (range 0.27 - 4.2) T4: 11.4 (range 11.9 - 21.6) BELOW Second blood test: TSH: 4.49 (range 0.35 - 4.94) T4: 12.7 (range 9.0 - 19.1) T3: 4.6 (range 2.4 - 6.0) Because my TSH is not above 5 (although 0.04 away

Ibrance side effects
I am on Ibrance 125 mg and letrozole and I have bloody nose constantly and bleeding gums. I have a cold and slight cough. Not bacterial because I had recent chest x-ray and blood tests. I have mets to lungs. But no infection on my lungs. I see my oncologist next week. I am thinking a dose reduction

Cholesterol and CLL
Hoping for some information from the wise ones here - back in January my GP said she wanted to start me on a statin as my cholesterol was high. I said I preferred to try to bring it down myself rather than with medication (and my intent here is not to start a debate on statins - I just prefer a natural

Now I have something else to deal with
GP took some nail clippings when she came round for a home visit and they have come back that I have Candida yeast infection. Just put my nail condition down to Reynauds and my nails have looked off since the winter and currently look like this on my right hand https://prnt.sc/I0agA1OMN1Z9.

Fibrosis?
Hi there. Continuing my journey to recovery, I was today told by my doctor that I need to have a blood test to see if I have any scarring of the liver. My LFT’s are better than they were in June last year. An ultrasound in August 23 noticed a fatty liver. So, can you still get scarring of the liver
