update from Ruffabug (End of life plan)
He will be working in conjunction with the hospice doctors.I may suggest to him that I have an
iron
panel done sometime soon but for now I am much more at peace with it and am worrying less about the future. Please feel free to comment but I don’t think I could change the plan for the time being.

Please does anyone know a private Rheumatologist in Cornwall or Devon who I would be able to go and discuss my osteoporosis with? Thank you.
a few years..RLS nearly 40 years…, —————————————— My other main problem is Restless Legs Syndrome RLS, which has been torture but is now fairly well under control with intravenous
iron
infusions periodically. Strong family history, mum had it and 3 of my 4 children do.

Flare up for weeks
Watching what I eat and drinking lots of water, stopped the
iron
tab 3 days ago to try soothe things down. So far not much if any improvement. Got a doc app next week, but just feel totally fed up and anxiety through the roof.

Friends thyroid results, please can anyone advise?
Her ferritin and folate are high due to supplementing and a recent
iron
infusion. It's interesting also that since her last panel 10 months ago, her antibodies are much better than they were. She thinks this must be due to going gluten and dairy free since, and injecting B12.

First endo appointment left me feeling really confused,
I’ve only just started supplementing with
iron
, I’ve never had my t3 checked despite asking the doc to test it they keep saying they don’t need to!!

Will being on optimal Levo dose for weight make a big difference in mood etc?
I’ve been taking vitamin gummies for months and ensuring I don’t have
iron
, ant D’s close to Levo. Honestly so tired of the merry go around and not being myself :(

Am I on enough thyroid medication for my weight
Please note I have Lupus and kidney issues and have been advised to keep D levels on a maintenance dose only as can cause stones which I am prone to - and also ferritin - I do not get on with
iron
- have good diet and taking B12 and Vitamin C - I am nutritionally aware and consider I am only alive today

symptoms with treated PA
Also, is the ability to absorb
iron
, vitamin D and folic acid affected? I have a good diet, but my levels are always low unless I supplement. Is this the reason? TIA

Some Potentially Alarming Changes to Blood
Lymphocytes as a percentage have increased from 77% to 82% WBC went from 12.4 to 19.8 Monocytes tanked from 6% yo 3% Though somehow ABS Monocytes are still in normal range at 0.59 I asked for an
iron
panel and ferritin as well as a B12 screen--those all look normal.

Feeling poorly
I also have an
iron
panel kit which I will also do. I have been slowly increasing from 50mcgs to 75mcgs, and past 2 weeks taking 75mcgs everyday. Without the knowledge of my GP at this point.

update and advice on flights
She has given me the form to get my
iron
tested but did say it would be difficult to get anybody to agree to an iv
iron
transfusion but let’s wait and see what my bloods come back as first.

Diagnosis at last! Haemochromotosis?
However the biggest surprise was a diagnosis of haemochromotosis which is a rare genetic blood disorder that causes a build up of
iron
in your organs, often liver and pancreas. He is starting venesection treatment for that shortly. Anyone got any experience of this?

Tapering off pramexole
When I told him I couldn't do oral
iron
because of the reflux he referred me to a hemotologist (once I found one who takes my insurance) for
iron
infusions. Unfortunately that guy is backed up until mid-May so I have to wait, but I'm on the cancellation list in case something comes up earlier.

Blood test results
The isolated drop in total
iron
binding capacity is probably not significant as the rest of the
iron
storage results (
Iron
, transferrin saturation and ferritin) are all within range." Which one is it Graves or Hashimoto's?

Iron - wishful thinking
All too often, I think
iron
gets viewed as an issue you get suffer because of something else. Not important enough in its own right to need, to deserve, a separate forum.
