Clear blue test with evap line but looks like a positive... I GOT MY PERIOD SO IT OBVIOUSLY WAS A NEGATIVE.
I purchased a 2 pavk of clear blue pregnancy test the first one had a very faint line almost making think was it an early positive. I decided to take the second test first thing the following morning. Within 3 minutes it wasn't a perfect + sign but I literally swore I had to be pregnant. I looked online

Apixaban and iron
I am taking Apixaban 5mg bd and iron bisglycinate 60mg. Is the iron reducing the effectiveness of the Apixaban and vice versa? If so, what is the solution to raising the ferritin levels?

kidney stones
The doctor has said I could have kidney stones but because the pain is very mild it’s not an immediate concern as it’s the weekend. I should try and ride it out until my blood tests and scan next week unless it gets severe.

I’ve attached the image of yesterdays and todays tests together as they look atm. Top image is yesterday’s test. I would

CLL Progressing To Next Stage
Today I had a phone consult with my haematologist who informed me CLL has progressed and that at my next appt in 6 weeks’ time he’d discuss with me my options I have to confess to being largely ignorant about the disease (call it burying my head in the sand) and wondered what these options/treatments

**sensitive post** OTD pregnancy result
Hi all, I took my pregnancy test on Monday (my OTD) and managed to wait without any prior testing and to my shock it was a clear positive.

Rheumie appt. - Speechless!
I have just returned from my 6 monthly appt with my Rheumatologist. She was talking ‘at me’ before I’d even sat down. Maybe I was rude but I interrupted her and said “Good Morning”. I have reduced to 4.5 mgms Pred and thought she would be pleased by this, but she asked why I was not off Pred altogether

IV Iron Infusion for RLS
Have any of you gotten worse after an IV Iron Infusion? I got Infed 1,000mg iron. For the past 2 weeks my RLS has been worse and I'm getting up to pee 4 times during the night. (No, I haven't changed my liquid intake). Is this a normal reaction? Will things improve ? Is it temporary or am I permanently

Got results today
Labs weren’t too bad, but will be curious to see what they say. Wbcs 1.9, hct 39.5, PLT 176, neutrophils 1.1, lymphocytes 0.6. Alk phos was a little high, but not near double, other liver enzymes were good. I figured it is because my thyroid needs adjusting as it was totally fine in June. But lipids

Anyone know of issues with taking Candesartan anywhere near Levo/T3?
Hi, thanks for reading my post. I have Hashimoto’s, am on T4/T3 combo and get migraines. Have been told I can’t move onto migraine preventative injections etc unless I try 3 prophylaxis meds first. Propranolol and Amytriptaline no help, so now they say try Candesartan. I have enough bad reactions with

low or high stomach acid?
I have been suffering with heat in my chest and a cough and have started lansoprzole which has helped but not much. Prior to this, a lot of stress with antibiotics and antifungal medication for infections. Could I have low stomach acid instead? I am testing my thyroid privately and vitamins to see

Am I being blasé about stomach protectors whilst on Pred?
I have had PMR for 3 and a half years and generally feel lucky that I am not feeling as bad or fatigued as many on this forum. I am certainly not as fit as I was but age has a part to play. I am 75 and used to be able to do big hikes, Zumba and so on but can still walk 4 to 5 miles and have just moved
