Success with GP - for now
Just had an appointment with my GP and after lots of persuasion and me quoting NICE guidelines at him, he's agreed to reinstate my previous daily 100mcg Levo. 🥳This does come with the condition of reassessing in 6-8 weeks after bloods done. (I'll cross that bridge when I get there) I got the usual

Heavy bleeding Mirena
Hello I have the mirena IUD coil for about 3 years now. My bleeding used to be lighter but still there and constant. But over the last couple of money with academic stress and financial pressure. I've been bleeding so heavily with blood clots the size of my palm. I bleed like 3 weeks a month and I spend

Vitamin timings
Morning from not at all sunny Wales. I don’t know why I struggle with a vitamin routine and I wonder if I’m alone on this? Is it okay to take all of these at the same time after breakfast: Vit D/K, B12, Folate, and DHEA? If I take them then they aren’t near any thyroid medication but wanted

ferratin blood level
Hi, I’ve got a ferritin level of 40.5 (30 - 169) To me this is low isn’t it? Also I have been taking spatone iron sachets for 6 months so would you say I’d need a higher iron supplement? If so could anymore please advise on a decent one ?

Any suggestions for Pregabalin side effects?
I have weaned myself off ropinirole. It was the perfect drug for me before augmentation set in. Slept all night and had no after-effects the next day. I am now on 75 mg pregablin which I take 2 to 3 hours before bedtime. I fall asleep easily but wake up after two hours with RLS, strong enough urges to

Risk of reversing out for A'levels
Hi everyone. I'm in a conundrum. My youngest daughter, 17, has low B12 (181ng/L, so not low enough for our GP to take any notice), inherited from me (141ng/L and now self-injecting) and her grandmother (hospitalised on intravenous B12 for several months in the '50s). She has quite low folate at 5.5.

hi again all! I am very depleted in ferritin and am awaiting an infusion. I also started b12 injections 3 months ago for PA but I don’t think they’ve been often enough (1x/month). Also just got diagnosed with subclinical hashimotos (thyroid levels are still normal). I’m grasping at straws trying to

Haemachromatosis and iron in RLS
Husband with chronic and often terrible restless leg symptoms- but also (like others in his family line) has the Haemachromatosis gene. Cant see how he could ever use an iron based therapy. Wonder if there are other people with experience of this ?
