Changing brands of T4 - will I notice any difference?
Hi, I believe most of you here are in the UK so you may not know this brand (I'm in Belgium and I've had to order it from France), but I am about to switch from the Belgian brand L-Thyroxine to Thyrofix and I wondered whether anyone had any experience of the latter or a brand with the same or similar

Underactive Thyroid, Hashimoto, Anaemia or none of the above
Any thoughts on the below please? I am considered normal but hoping to see an Endo specialist privately. I do have some more blood test results re: blood count but thought these might be the key ones. Can add if needed Creatinine 83 (range 53 - 97) Calcium 2.41 mmol (no normal range) CKD 75ml/min/1.73m2

Low Sodium Salt
Thinking of my blood pressure I want to reduce the salt in my diet. I have some low sodium salt (Brand: Saxa So-Low) in which the reduced sodium is primarily taken up with potassium chloride instead. The packet says it contains 50% less sodium than table salt. It has 51% potassium chloride and 48% salt

Struggling to cope...
Hi, I first got tinnitus about 8 years ago, seen a ENT specialist and after getting hearing aids, combined with a sound unit at my bedside it lessened to having no impact on my life. In fact I used to explain to folk if they ever get it, their brain would habituate to it over time. Hopefully still true

Thyroid hormone synthesis
I found this interesting and informative image the other day. You can view the full image by following the link - but, depending on whether you are using a phone, a tablet, a computer, you might get different options and sizes of image, etc. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Thyroid_hormone_synthesis.png

A new T3 derivative shows promise in treatment with T3 and smaller FT3 spikes after taking it
Ths paper and abstract is downloadable. It demonstrates that the new T3 derivative has a good display of less vigorous FT3 spikes after taking it. This means that combination users and T3-only users have a better and more stable response. However, this compound will be patented and sold as rather high

IBS mixed.
I am considering on taking
Imodium
to at least get my rhythm back and perhaps give me a break. It does say on the pack to take two tablets to start treatment… and the side effects are most likely to be feeling of sickness which I’m already experiencing due to anxiety…

Prostate Cancer & Brugada Syndrome
Almost 3 years ago, while being prepped for surgery for a small bowel obstruction, my ECG showed I was having a 'heart attack' that wasn't. Instead I was later diagnosed with Brugada Syndrome (BrS), a genetic defect of the Sodium channels in the heart that can trigger a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). This

Understanding your blood test
Hi all, Happy New Year etc! I have finally managed to translate my blood test results and for anyone else out there who is also bemused, I am attaching a guide to help you understand the basics. Ranges are often slightly different, or expressed differently in different countries or even clinics but really

Sodium Butyrate is healing me!
I’ve suffered with IBD for 24 years and at last I have my symptoms under control, in fact I am recovering. After such a long time it is life changing for me. My recovery started with eating LoFodmap foods which gave my digestion a much needed rest, then after considerable research I stumbled across Sodium

Brothers Keeper
I’ve been reading posts here for quite a while and find the advice and comfort given very helpful. I just dropped my older brother (42) at the hospital once again. He’s was extremely Jaundice and showing significant signs of HE. Unfortunately due to COVID I am unable to visit him or his doctors so

Your thoughts, please
I'm going in for labs this week. My main concern is high Potassium & proteinuria. I've been watching my protein, somewhat and potassium a lot. Potassium has been dangerously high in the past. I also have edema, it's better but am on a diueretic, so have been watching sodium and cut back on water.

Medication mixes
My 9 yr old son has been on the highest dose of Desmopressin for a year, and movicol and docusate sodium. We recently changed to both Pico sulfate, and Laxido, and he is now wetting almost every night. Does anyone know if it will be the new medication conflicting with the Desmo melts? Many thanks.
