Vitamin and antibody blood test
I got my results back from my test I did on Monday. I’ve attached screen shots below. My ferritin has improved and my antibodies have always been 80 but they seem to have halved ! My vitamin d has also improved. Please can you have a look and see what you think ? And what are thyroglobulin antibodies

How low can you go ? Blood pressure GP policy and general guidance
Hi I have had high blood pressure for over 20 years. At some point in my late 20s (I am now 51), a GP decided I met the criteria for high blood pressure and prescribed medication. For most of the next 20 years I had an annual or semi annual check at the surgery and a blood test every year. They would

Mum's battle
Hi all, Mum has suffered from adrenal insufficiency over the past 15 years, as well as pernicious anemia, hypothyroidism, low WBC count and was hospitalised several times with low electrolytes. The electrolyte imbalance was caused by the cortisol acetate supplement she takes. She was numerous doctors

Early morning blood tests
I see on other posts that an early morning blood test before 09:00hrs is suggested for an accurate reading. I went to have bloods taken yesterday morning at 08:55hrs for ferritin. My phlebotomist found that my blood flow was a bit on the slow side... but ok for the lab test. She thought she might have

update
Not sure what’s going on, I had blood tests because of headaches and temple pain but I’ve just had a call from rheumatologist now making an urgent appointment for this Friday and wanting me to increase prednisone from 10mg back up to 15 until I see him, very strange.

Annual review and fibro diagnosis
Hi all.I had an annual (18 months in truth) review with rheumatology yesterday. I wanted to discuss experiencing constant brain fog and chronic fatigue and whether this was a side effect of MTX. I also have ongoing low level pain, especially in my knees and a few other places. I wanted to know if

Advice Needed Following Test Results
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in November 2023 and started on a 50mcg dose of Levothyroxine. In March this year, my GP increased this to 75mcg (50mcg Accord and 25mcg Mercury Pharma). This week I took a private blood test to check my latest thyroid and vitamin status. These are my latest thyroid

Possible Overmedication Woes
I switched to T4/T3 combo in December, I'm self sourcing Tiromel. I was at that point taking 200mcg of Levo, felt okish but felt T3 could be higher it was 5.2 on a range of 3.1-6.8. This was a private test in October. I didnt want to add more Levo so following advice decoded to try some T3. Added 6.25mcg

Baricitinib (Olumiant) side effects - did they improve over time?
I finally took the plunge to have Olumiant on Monday 22nd after getting my blood tests/vaccines etc. It's been a bit of an up-and-down story so am wondering what other people's experiences have been like. This is a draft of what I'm going to email my Rheumatologist but thought it was worth hearing some
