My calcium level appears low within bone profile blood tests. Are these an accurate representation I wonder?
Diagnosed with osteopenia after having Dexa scans in 2016 and 2023 and breaking wrist and arm in separate incidents of slipping on ice. My concern is that when my calcium is tested via bloods, it comes back as being borderline low even though I’m taking 900mg calcium citrate per day and ingest another

Help interpreting results
Hi, apologies for long post. I’m a 34yo female. I’ve had symptoms that line up with hypothyroid symptoms for years. Had a few tests when my eczema flared up really badly around 12 years ago, which coincides with the time that a lot of the symptoms began. Have had fatigue basically since catching Epstein-Barr

Thyroid blood test results.
Been on Levothyroxine for 34 years (Hashimotos)Recent private blood test results are: TSH 0.009 Free T3 4.6 Free Thyroxine 26.2 I feel well at this dose but have been advised by GP that I am over medicated. Also, Ferritin is on the low end at 69.1 Do I need to take iron supplements? Vit D is deficient

IBS symptoms?
Hi, I’m hoping someone can give me some advice on my symptoms. I have had bowel issues for a long time (around 20 years) mainly in the form of gas and bloating and cycles of diarrhoea and constipation. The bloating part was the only bit that really got me down, the rest was manageable, so I decided

Frequent injuries when exercising.
I have been hypo for about 10 years, currently on 75mcg levo, and 10mcg lio but drop to 5mcg twice a week, otherwise my heart rate goes up from 60’s to 90’s. TSH 0.01, FT4 16.1, FT3 4.6, both 41% through range. Vit D 85. I find if I do even pilates, ligaments and bursae get easily inflamed. Eg an ankle
