Wanting to add t3 to NDT
Hello, once again I went to another dr that didnt know what to do with me! Short story of 2019- had an adrenal crash in June, looked around for another doctor, previous one just wanted to run test and not listen to symptoms. Was told about functional medicine doctor so thought she could help. Saw her

FDA investigating Metformin for Carcinogens
The investigation by the FDA of Metformin (probably the most investigated drug of all time given its long history for use with Type 2 diabetes) for the carcinogen NMDA is of some concern given the plethora of generic manufacturers of this drug, especially from India and China. NDMA or NMN is usually

IBS-C & low sodium levels in blood test
Hi all Does anyone else have low sodium levels in their bloods? If so, did you experience any adverse effects? I think mine is low because I drink about 4 litres of water a day (I came out of the womb thirsty :) - however i think being low in blood sodium could be contributing to my IBS-C. The reason

**UPDATE** Bloods: consistent low sodium levels (Bit freaked out!)
**Update:
I just spoke with my Dr - my urine sample came back normal - no Addison's or anything else! Wow, what a massive relief. Thanks to all who have contributed and offered support. I am on day three of cutting back water and adding salt back into my diet.
All the best

Blood test results
Hi, in my recent blood test results calcium, potassium and sodium levels were above normal range (all others, including LFT, ALT were normal range). I try to follow low sodium diet. GP has asked for repeat test. Has anyone else have similar results. So far only diagnosis is mild to high Fibrosis.

Right Upper Quadrant Pain?
I joined this community about a month ago and, rather than simply reading different threads, have finally mustered the courage to post a question. Of all the threads I've read so far, there are many people who appear to have similar stories – although, I've never been able to find out how their stories

Interference of anti-streptavidin antibodies in immunoassays: a very rare phenomenon or a more common finding?
The issue with biotin interfering with blood tests has been much discussed. Now a paper which suggests that interference by anti-streptavidin antibodies is more common than thought. Unfortunately, whereas with biotin we can do something (stop taking biotin for a few days before a test), with these

Imodium question
So planning on taking a couple of
Imodium
before hand. Hoping that will see me through. My question is how long before I leave the house. Should I take them? To be the most effective.
