T3 starting dose too high?
Hi all, looking for some advice. Have had hashi's for 3 years and my GP has had me undermedicated for all of that time (25mg Levo rising to 50mg after about 1. years and only 7 weeks ago he allowed me to increase to 75mg at weekends and 50mg during the week). My results in February were: FT4: 14.6

Partners ALP gradually increasing.
Hi all, My partner is in the interim of moving to NHS after being diagnosed with liver disease on private . He has hemochromatosis and the disease from this. His next appointment isn't until November and his last was in February. He and myself are worried as we've noticed his ALP has risen in the last

Hi everyone, I need advice on my son who is 31 years old and has Asperger syndrome. He has struggled all his life from the age of 4 years old. He never got a diagnosis until he was 11 years old, I was even told by one specialist? that he was an odd child and he will grow out of it. Well what a thing

Progress is being made!
Good morning everyone, I apologize in advance. I've let too much time go by without sharing needed updates. Due to the amazing feedback, I have received from this forum, MANY changes have been made in a short time and I'm truly in awe at the results so far. Last night I was reviewing and consolidating

Good news,I hope !
My GP has just called to say that she had received a letter from the Neurologist. They have agreed that I can start to reduce the Ropinerole by 0.25 and start on 50 mg of Pregabalin while I'm still on the waiting list for the iron infusion. I told the GP what Sue Johnson had advised ( thank you Sue

Follow up
I had a follow up appt with my Dr yesterday. Told her I am down from 10 mg ropinorole to 3 mg with the help of 25 mg tramadol when needed. She thought that was great but does not want me to use tramadol. She said it causes Rls. She gave me gabapentin 300 mg. to try instead of Tramadol. I asked about

It's been a while... new results
Hi all I haven't posted in a [u]very long time.[/u] I would greatly appreciate some help with my latest results which I had a nurse draw for me as my Thriva results kept saying 'not enough blood' ...so I wasn't getting full results.

My doctors won’t investigate
Typically I suffer with chronic symptoms of low B12 but all my results seem to be ignored by GP. My ferritin is 35 ug/L (indeterminate), vitamin b12 is 157ng/L (low) and in my FBC my MCV is 95.5 (just below higher cut off) and MCH is 32.1 (slightly high - comment on blood test is ‘no action despite having

Anaemia caused by PRD?
I had pelvic/abdominal radiotherapy treatment almost 50 years ago and started to suffer problems with digestion about 20 years ago, put down at the time, to IBS. In 2017, I underwent a hemicolectomy and the surgeon told me at the time that my small bowel was quite damaged commenting that she was surprised

I want to give up. I have no energy to keep going.
Hi all, I've been suffering for the past many years. Since 2022 everything went downhill and I had to quit my job as I can't function. I'm 40 years old. I was tested for everything under the sun and everything is down to thyroid. I have Hashis. I have tried many med combos, everything fails on me. Recently

trying to get B12 SI schedule right for me
hi all Just trying to get my SI schedule right to feel my best. I live in the USA so tx protocol is once a month B12 injection. This doesn’t work for me. I need it much more often. It does seem I feel best when I’m injected by the nurse. I order my own supplies to SI at home in between nurse injections

Is it B12 anemia? I’m confused.
Hello all, I’m new here and not sure if I need to pursue some concerns I have with my health so wondered if anyone could possible give me some advice/guidance. I’ve always been tired, (it’s a family joke!), struggled with gut issues (mainly constipation), and in the last 5 or so years had terrible brain

Oedema in legs and feet
My husband has decompensated liver disease. Initially, his drain for ascites also resolved any mild swelling in legs and feet. Since February, the swelling has become worse and the drain doesn’t help. He cannot have diuretics, unfortunately, as his potassium increases to dangerously high levels. Elevating

Followed advice here, now need help with understanding results
Hi, I’ve learned more here in the last year or so than I’ve ever learned from doctors. I’ve also come to know that I’ve probably been on too low of a Synthroid dosage for far too long. I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s since 2005 or 2006. I had a goiter on my parathyroid and had surgery to remove

Advice on latest blood tests
Hi all, Hoping to get some advice on bloods following my latest tests. Just wondered if it's worth increasing the T4 as it's a bit lower since putting on a little bit of weight. I'm happy with my Vit D, B12, Folate and Iron and hence have not included those results. Thanks in advance
