Advice Needed
I’ve had hypothyroidism for 20 years +, I take 200mcg Thyroxine and 60mcg Liothyronine and have for the 20 years since I was diagnosed. My blood test results have always been similar (usually towards the top of the range, but that’s my normal) Last years blood test was more mid range. I don’t have any

low HCG result - am I out?
We are 12dp5dt. OTD was 24/4 with a faint positive, that afternoon I started spotting. It has been on and off since then, mostly pinkish in colour. I had a beta blood test this morning which has come back at 31. The nurse said she can’t say yet whether this is a chemical or not. Is this it? Am I out?

Incidence of Large Vessel Vasculitis in late diagnosis of PMR
When I read members’ experiences of prompt PMR diagnoses I’m truly pleased for them but I have to admit to feeling a degree of envy. My diagnosis arrived ‘only’ five months after onset of symptoms; I say ‘only’ because I know that for others the wait was far, far longer: PMRpro, for example, was without

Switching from Levothyroxine to Liothyronine
Hello, I hope everyone is well. I haven’t written on here for a while as I’ve been feeling quite well so hope you don’t mind me coming back to you now. Although I feel good on my current dose of thyroxine and definitely don’t feel I’m taking too much, my endocrinologist wants to lower my thyroxine

Hand surgery cancelled due to supressed TSH on liothyronine
I was due to have a Trapeziotomy on left hand tomorrow. (Both hands need to be done due to bone on bone arthritis but have to have 6 month recovery inbetween)With less than 16 hours notice it has been cancelled as my pre operative blood tests show a supressed TSH and so they cancelled it. But I specifically

Repost with more info: peripheral neuropathy
Thanks to Marion and Esperanto for helping me to provide more information. All questions answered here... (Original post question: my Movement Disorders Specialist (MDS) says foot numbness is not Pripheral Neuropathy, but rather a non motor symptom of Parkinson's??? ) I'm in my 10th year with PD symptoms

MF and natural epo levels.
Does anyone with MF get tested routinely for their natural epo levels? We have asked to have my wife's epo level checked at her next blood test opportunity, mainly due to her poor Hgb a sudden rise in platelets and that she has only one working kidney left, and no spleen.
