Et triple negative platlets gone up to 1560
Hi all, Just getting back on here about platlets increasing over 1500,My hematologist will want me on hydroxyurea as he said when I go over 1500 that is his way forward. The past 2 bloods I had done have come down from 1420 to 1402 to 1300 last time 6 weeks ago. I am just wondering if it has to be this

My thyroid seems worse with every dose increase.
I could not take levo/synthroid..It made me feel too bad. One time on synthroid I had good numbers still felt awful. I switched to armor. It seems the dose will make me feel good for about a month...then I start getting worse and worse..The next month they check my thyroid numbers and they are higher

Questions about ADT drugs and insurance
Will Medicare cover Lupron injections under part B as it is not self administered (as opposed to pills)? If so how much will they cover (with a supplement plan). Regarding Orgovyx, since it is a pill and not an injection will it be covered under Medicare part D drug coverage? and if so do all of the

Hashi's & Menopause/HRT - weight loss help!
Hi all, I have Hashimoto's and have been on levo 75mg with combined HRT (oestrogen patch and progesterone pill) for a few years. Had a total hysterectomy almost 2 years ago, but they left my ovaries, due to extensive endo, adenomyosis and fibroids. But I have literally been stuck in limbo since then

Thinner lining on transfer day
Hello everyone, I’d really appreciate your experiences. I’ve had a FET today on a natural cycle. 7 days ago my lining was 11.4mm and today for the transfer it was 7.2mm. Has anyone else seen a drop off like this? I asked the doctor and she said it could be that the lining has compacted and that above
