HiI have had low iron for over a year in January 2024 I was experiencing horrific bone pain after I move around actively.

TSH/T3/T4/Vit B & D results
My previous Endo (private) retired last October and the new one (private) that I was suggested to see immediately reduced my Lio from 100 to 75 & the T3 from 20 to 10. Originally I had wanted to see an NHS Endo 3 years ago but none were available, hence the private route. My readings are T4 18.8 -

Fatigue
I was diagnosed with endo about a month ago after my first laparoscopy. I’ve had symptoms since I was about 15/16. One of the things I struggle with the most, that has been progressively getting worse, is feeling tired and fatigued all the time. I never have any energy and don’t feel like doing anything

Vitamins for cognition
Hello, my adult son has cognitive/short term memory difficulties following a TBI. He takes omega 3, B12, vitamin D and magnesium supplements and it's difficult to know if they are helping or not. I wondered if any of you could advise which supplements have been helpful to you. Lions mane and ashwaganda

DNA fragmentation supplement advice. Could supplements be doing more harm than good?
Hey everyone hope you are well. Dh got his semen results at normal but then test revealed high DNA fragmentation. 42%. We don’t have time\money/willing to see a urologist but we are going to arrange some tests for infection. I do believe that abstinence period could be a big thing here… part of the

Got GP appointment but what to say to get him to test anything more than TSH
Hi 3 months ago I wrote a post about my daughters results since 2018 & her vitamin levels which are dire. It has taken her this long to manage to get a telephone appointment with a GP next Wednesday. My question is what does she say to convince them to test more than just her TSH. I went through

A big thank you!
I just wanted to say a big ‘thank you’ to all who commented on my last post. I was blown away by all the help and support. I went back to the doctor and asked for my vitamin D to be checked… she was reluctant, but lo and behold, it turns out my levels are extremely low. I finally feel like I might have

Help boosting thyroid without medication?
Hello all I have posted before as my thyroid function is poor but always comes back in range (my TSH never rises even with low levels) so no chance of medication on the NHS (other than statins for high cholesterol which I refuse). I did some recent tests TSH 1.95 (0.27-4.2) T4 14.6 (12-22) T3

asthmatic response to new rug made in India

Thoughts please!
I am still struggling terribly to tolerate any doseage of levo or lio - combo or mono. It makes me feel even worse/is completely debilitating. I have tried changing when I take the doses, the brand etc you name it and still no better. It’s notable that my blood pressure gets too low on it too. Am I
