W3R1 - lead leg running
At least my dog was obedient and she was happy to run with me :)I googled reasons for lead leg running feeling, and I don't expect any of the following: -
iron
deficiency - I hope not - dehydration - I was drinking a lot recently - intense training - debatable, I did have additional rest day - poor

Low hemoglobin but high erythrocytes count
I will also mention that I have very low
iron
. What can this mean? Could this be a sign of disease progression? My doctor always just gives me a paper with the results and is very reluctant to answer my questions 🤨 Here are my results:

Difficulty tolerating iron
Hello, my ferritin level has dropped over the last two years when I discontinued my
iron
supplement. I think it's around 17. I do have symptoms, hair thinning, mood issues, trouble sleeping, weight gain, low thyroid.

Would t3 benefit me? Latest bloods
I’ve just started a gluten free diet and take
iron
and folate as both were low. I’ve been taking them for 8 weeks and have just had the levels tested so can share all those results when I have them. I wondered if t3 may help me feel better?

teeth clenching
I’m titrating NDT Armour over the last year but I’ve got a hypo symptom that’s bothering me, nighttime teeth clenching. I have no knowledge I’m doing this. I take amitriptyline and once I get to sleep midnight to 1am, I’m out for the count. I think the dentist told me September 2023 that I was clenching

Low ferritin
I have just had an
iron
profile done by my doctor and my serum ferritin has come back at 32 (30-148). She has said no further action is required as within lab range, but this is obviously very low. Can anyone recommend a good supplement please as I am feeling a bit tired and washed out?

Tigger is bouncing around Winnie the Pooh, because he is happy his RLS is better
I was originally trialing 5 microgram 7 day patches that got me out of that dark tunnel but wasn’t 100% effective so after the initial 3 week trial I wrote to Dr Christopher Murphy explained the situation and he arranged for me to collect 10 microgram 7 day patches from Salford Royal Infirmary. I applied

TMS/TBS, Buprenorphine tip
I have just completed TMS/TBS(theta burst stimulation) treatments(36 TMS+10 TMS/TBS) It has been a game changer for the post Dopamine agonist depression, that was quite severe and unresponsive to meds. I currently have no depression symptoms. What I have found is that the RLS symptoms are decreased

Ferritin iron advice please
Hello, My recent ferritin results was 21% of range, even though
iron
was 78%. I did neglect
iron
the last few weeks a bit as I ran out of my usual
iron
tablets. I have now Solgar's Gentle
Iron
20 and
iron
in a liposomal form (gel) 20 mg as well. How many should I be taking to raise it?

Recommendations for multivits
I don't want one containing
iron
, as anything other than gentle
iron
seems to upset my tummy. I've found a few without
iron
, but the dosages seem to be way above RDA recs, so I wondered what your thoughts were on this. Also, any recommendations for what brand, etc. Thanks as ever. 😊

Coming off Pramipexole
She's arranging (at my request) a full
iron
panel and she also suggested a B12 check, both of which I will have in 2 weeks' time. Last night I cut my Pramipexole in half, with a view to taking 1/2 one night then X1 the next for a fortnight, then gradually reducing as she gave me no plan.

Can you combine levo and NDT?
(I supplement with
iron
, folate, B12, D, etc and monitor my levels, so it's not that side of things.) So I was thinking: could I reduce levo to 50 mcg and add 25 mcg of NDT by taking 1/4 a grain? Has a combo of more T4 and less NDT worked for anyone and can it help?

blood test back - any thoughts?
So now I am off all my meds, and started taking 200mg
iron
a night a month ago, my ferritin level just came back as 80, which I was quite surprised. The last one in 2020 was over 120. Should I double the dose and split it through the day or take 2 tabs before bed?
