Understand Your Blood Work
this is from a Canadian PBC Society PBC FACT SHEET (09/02/16) (may vary by lab) ALP Alkaline Phosphatase This enzyme occurs mainly in liver cells next to bile ducts, and in bone. The blood level is raised in PBC and is the main enzyme that is checked to see if you have a response to treatment

Help with latest Blood Test
Hello, I’m hoping someone can give some advice on latest blood test please. I am on 100mgs Levothyroxine. I did trial T3 but didn’t notice much difference by taking T3really. Im not sure if this is because I wasn’t on a high enough dose of L4 at the start of trialing it. I have taken the D1o2 test

Hashimotos
Hi. I've had hypothyroidism for 27 year's and was born with hypercalcemia familiar. In February I noticed my right gland area was enlarged and hoarse voice. I went for a blood test on April 1st to be told that I was slightly overactive and they would adjust medication at next routine blood appointment

Chronic migraine and chronic sore throat
Hi everyone, I was wondering if anybody is struggling (and this for years) with chronic migraine and chronic sore throat/chronic tonsillitis. I have come to think that part of my migraines are caused by an underlying chronic infection. As usual, blood tests are fine. Antibiotics work for the throat
