Which Vits to test for
Hi, I have been given a trial of T3. My thyroxine has been reduced from 75mcg daily to 50 mcgs with T3 added at 5mcgs. I have been taking these for eight days so far. I have an appointment with a GP on Monday and will ask to have my blood tested for vitamins. My question is, which should I be asking

Adalimumab serious side effects, any advice?
I had my first injection last Saturday and won’t be having another! Sheer fluke blood tests were booked for Thursday and the GP rang me Thursday evening. Sodium levels had gone very low which could lead to a coma. I’m now taking SIS electrolytes to try and raise them with more blood tests next Tuesday

are you taking vitamins / supplements, in conjunction with use of a prescription bone treatment?
let me know how it's going, and what you're using, please, thanks ... after all, the main trial for prolia had participants on daily calcium supplement with vitamin D.

CA 27-29 has your tumor marker test ever gone into normal range
Update to my last update: the people who ran my blood said they mixed up the vials of blood with another patient. They offered to retest me at no expense. I go in tomorrow for my bloodwork retest. I can’t imagine how often stuff like this happens and how often it goes unnoticed. It says Mayo Clinic

A rhesus negative - anti-D worries - can anyone help?
At my 16 week check up with the midwife I was told that I'm A Rhesus Negative which means i'll need to have anti-D injection at about 28 weeks. That all sounded fine and wasn't worried until I read up on it and been on some forums. This is my first pregnancy, however, I did have a miscarriage previously

I have just been diagnosed with Osteoporosis T -2.9 in hips and spine at 64 years old. Dr prescribed biophosphates as my risk of fracture is high (statistically in paper). The thought of having drugs with side effects makes me run a mile and so I started my research that brought me here. I was prepared

Recommendation re supplements
Hi allI'm fairly new to the forum and I'm finding all your info and wealth of experience extremely helpful. Have learnt that addressing possible nutritional deficiencies is important before Thyroid hormone therapy can be optimally effective. I have Hashimotos and recently posted full thyroid panel results
