Iron Deficiency Without Anemia (IDWA)
In my "I'm Alive!" post yesterday I discussed my crashing with effectively no iron in my system with a condition called Iron Deficiency Without Anemia (IDWA). As promised here is a more detail discussion of that condition that anyone with autoimmune PA/AIG should keep their eye on. Knowing that iron

Retested: low D & B12, high ferritin
I have retested with medicheck because I'm in the queue to see a private endocrinologist about my symptoms. I was hoping that treating my vitamins and minerals may give a different thyroid hormone picture. Iron 239ug/L (range 30-150) I am under haematology, treated for iron deficiency anaemia. Tested

Latest Blood Test Results
Good morning all. I have an endo appt this Thursday and am trying to prepare myself as I am worried my dosage of Levo might be reduced. I am concerned that T3 conversion needs improvement as I still don't feel 'good' but because my TSH is at the bottom of the range my endo may ignore my concern. I can't

off Pramipexole
It took me 6 months to come off Pramipexole very slowly! Breast cancer interrupted things and I paused my reduction programme whilst I had a mastectomy. After surgery I had some respite from my restless legs as my ferretin levels increased which is normal after surgery. They are dropping back now.

Before, my ferritin levels were about 13- whereas ya'll know that they should be at least 75 for people with our syndrome. When my iron was so low, nothing worked- no matter how much
