Gabapentine or Pregabalin?
I am wondering whether there is any difference between Gabapentine and Pregabalin in terms of effectiveness. I take 2400 mg Gabapentine per day in 3X800 mg doses, but while I sleep my ok wife cannot sleep because of my movement. I am wondering if there is any other possible treatment that might work

First results after switching to NDT. Help pls ...
Hi beautiful people, I shared a number of posts here about my thyroid journey. I switched to Erfa brand NDT 2 weeks ago after being on levo for 2 decades. I started from 0.5 grain, increased to 1 grain and then to 1,5 grains. I've been on 1,5 grains for about 5 days now. I checked my bloods 2 weeks

Ferrittin level (Different Opinions)
Last Wednesday (26th July) I had my 3 monthly blood test in relation to my Myelofibrosis and asked for my Ferrittin level and TSATS to be checked also. The Nurse/Clinician found Ferrittin on the data base but not TSATS and was a bit baffled by the whole TSATS thing. I concluded that I would only get

Recommendations for Iron panel?
Hello, Does anyone use an Iron Panel test which they can recommend? We have used Medichecks but got in such a pickle with the ferritin ranges/versus NHS ferritin range and results that I am looking for another company. Or to be honest it may have just been me who couldn't work it out. Just looking

Hi everyone,
Hi, I’m going to see my GP son about my restless legs but also, I’m waking up extremely disoriented. I wake up and for 15 minutes, I stare at my hands trying to work out why I can’t Google anything. Eventually I worked out that it was because I didn’t have my phone in my hands. It was the weirdest

Not anemia? Lab results question.
It's been a couple months since my last iron infusion. Last week, I had labs drawn, and results included: [H] WBC (18.1), RDW (16.4), Platelets (614), Creatinine (1.04); [L] MCH (24.1), MCHC (30.5), Iron (22); [LL] Iron Saturation (7). Hemoglobin was just within normal range at 11.2, and

Blood Test Results
Would someone please be able to tell me what these blood test results mean please? I did add them on to a previous thread but I don't think they were showing up. I was told by my GP back in July that my TSH levels were low . I admitted that I did sometimes forget to take Levo so she wanted me to go

Negative HLA-B27
Quick recap, Dr originally diagnosed me with PMR, put me on 30 mg prednisone 14 weeks ago. After no great improvement he advised me to taper off so am now reducing 1mg every 3 days, currently at 16 mg. Dr tested for HLA-B27 (possible AS or non seronegative spondylitis type but bloods showed up negative

Chemotherapy
Hi guys, not been here for a while. My heamotologist rang this morning saying my red cells are low,and I'm anaemic even though I take an iron tab every day. Been on watch and wait with cll for over 14 years. A few years ago a different heamotologist gave me an iron infusion as he said levels were low

High Platelet Diagnosis Update….

new results 👍&👎
These are my new results and whilst my T3 is excellent do you think my T4 should come up a bit? I feel really tired most of the time but I am thinking this may have something to do with my vitamin results 🙄. In lots of ways I feel much better in myself, just need to work on my vitamins. I have struggled

Iron levels during pregnancy
At 28 weeks I had my bloods taken by a stand in MW. At my 31 weeks appointment I was told I should have been contacted as my iron levels were low and put on iron tablets. I'm now 35 weeks and they're still under 100. I'm going to have an iron drip today. Just wondered if any of you have had issues with

Help with latest blood results.
Edit - I posted the rest of my results in the replies because I didn't know how to post multiple images. Hello all I have posted here before although not for a while. So a bit of a back story I have suffered a range of symptoms for around 2 years now. And actually don't feel as though I've felt well
