Pregnancy disrupts the accuracy of automated fT4 immunoassays
This paper includes: [i]Indeed the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry working group for Standardization of Thyroid Function Tests acknowledged the need for standardization of the fT4 assay.[/i] Have to say, in my facetious moments, I have wonder what the IFCCSTFT group do when they are

Zoladex?
Hi all, Just seeing who else has been put on zoladex injections whilst waiting for surgery? I have a few close friends who are also endo sufferers and not once have they been offered this drug - just bit confused how consultants can have such different approaches! I am having to take HRT as bounce

good news I think…
thank you to everyone who sent reassurance. The Gynaecologist I saw today is convinced my Ca125 results are related to something that isn’t OC. She based this on a past ultrasound that said ovaries normal. She thought possibly my thyroid nodules which are being investigated in parallel. My pains

Timing of meds and supplements?
I wonder if anyone is able to share their optimal timing schedule- I feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day for all the different tablets with their exclusion zones! Not to mention fitting coffee into the day! This is what I currently take:
On waking:
ferograd C iron (every other day

Anyone had IgG food intolerance tested and successfully eliminated the offenders?
I know there's questions regarding the accuracy of IgG food testing but I had the test done out of interest because I've been considering going dairy free and/or gluten free. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in Oct 2012 but actually believe my issues were due to poor T4>T3 conversion. I'm waiting to

A letter has finally arrived! Trigeminy?!
Well, the ECG was on the 8/9 & the letter was dictated on the 30/9. It was then typed on the 5/10 & has arrived today. Ventricular bigeminy but the letter says trigeminy too?! Which appears to be an electrical issue with my heart? One consultant is more concerned with the electrical side of cardiology

Timing of Vitamins
Hi all Just wondering whether Vit B complex, Vit B12 & Vit D3 in black seed oil can be taken with magnesium all at the same time? i currently take Levo first thing then wait 4 hours before taking HRT.After lunch i take all the others but thinking maybe the B’s have to be apart from magnesium & D3?

HRT with mild bleeding now under 2 wk rule
I had no period for 3 and half years then went on HRT. After a month I was lightly bleeding for 2/3 days every two weeks. The nurse said this is normal and it should ease off 3-6 months. After 3 months she said keep going if I doesn’t stop I will send you for a scan. I was feeling low after 5 months

Should I consider increasing my prednisolone to cover Zoledronic acid infusion?
Morning all- I need to have an infusion of Zoledronic acid next week as my latest DEXA scan has shown that I am osteoporotic again following a year of prednisolone treatment. I was originally diagnosed with osteoporosis 4 years ago at the age of 52 and was managed initially with HRT and Adcal/Vit D3

adenomyosis diagnosis
I’ve just been told that I’ve got adenomyosis last week and cyst on left ovary. I’ve been referred to gynaecologist to check out the cyst to rule out anything sinister. I never heard of adenomyosis so I googled and was rather surprised because the symptoms I was having is quite different from adenomyosis

Sad and in pain
I feel so sad and depressed. As I type this, it is causing such pain in my left arm, brings tears to my eyes - sadness or actual pain? When diagnosed with PMR in July 2020 I was convinced I would be textbook, reduce to zero pred and disease burn out in 2 years. I tapered to 3.5 in September 2021 and

Zoledronic acid infusion for osteoporosis- I have to consider this
My bones were fine A few months later I had a hip
replacement
and the surgeon told me that while the
joint
was knackered, the bone taken out was good quality bone. This for me is enough evidence that it was working. Forward to age 66.
