Vitamin D going down while on loading dose
Hi everyone, I'm 32 years old with hashimotos. I take 100mcg levothyroxine daily. I've always struggled with getting to an ideal vitamin D level (which I believe it very common in people with hashimotos and other autoimmune diseases), and take a pretty high supplement of 5,000iu daily. However I noticed

Is Thyroiditis the same as Hashimotos?
Had my results phone call this morning regarding my ultrasound from the ENT Dr Thyroid is enlarged and inflamed but thankfully nothing suspicious or any nodules. She said it's Thyroiditis. However, last week my Dr said she suspects Hashimoto's as my antibodies had doubled in 3 months to over 1,200 but

Weight loss has stopped
I’m a little confused, I started LCHF nearly 3 weeks ago ( I’m using recipes from the fast 800 recipe book) and have nearly lost a stone. This week my weight has stayed the same and I have lost nothing. I’ve been measuring my ketones and they are fine. Help? Any ideas? I’m still classed as overweight

Would you dare admit to “going freestyle”??
I know there is a valiant effort made by everyone here to support each person’s right to make their own medical decisions. I really like that. I also notice that most people here advocate following a medical doctor’s advice, which is almost always taking DMTs (Disease Modifying Therapies aka pharmaceuticals

Amlodipine question
Does anyone know if amlodipine can be taken on an ad hoc need-to basis as opposed to a once-daily therapy? My mom's BP is largely stable on a very low sodium diet, and only spikes if we go off track. Thank you.

Does being Vegan eliminate Endo pain?
Anyone heard of Dr. Neal Barnard, Author of Your Body in Balance: The New Science of Food, Hormones, and Health?? He seems to claim going Vegan along with a low fat diet can eliminate Endometriosis. Has anyone tried this? Or have you had good results by becoming vegetarian as a start?

Test results and more questions than answers!
Hi I am hoping one of you more experienced people can help me move forward with my medication. I am currently on 75mcg Levo and 30mcg T3. I am greatly improved especially mentally - much calmer and no anxiety or feelings of panic. My weight has stopped piling on may even be reducing a wee bit - I no

Medichecks results - help in interpreting these please? Also do other people share these with their GPs and if so how does that go down??
Hello - after my disappointing dose increase of Levo of 25mg *every other day* following my last NHS blood test (3.79 - in range) but still having problems (mainly walking pain and need for long sleeps that I really don't have time for) I have now had my Medichecks results. Not too bad but think I definitely

AKI ... Contrast Induced
Good morning! Can anyone tell me how long an AKI lasts and whether, after a certain length of time, it becomes Chronic Kidney Disease!? I had a heart attack 2 months ago and required Angiography & stenting. A week or so later, it was found that I had suffered an AKI due to the contrast dye used during

Alternatives for sweets
I have long been a low carb dieter, and the fats I'd eatch are the healthy fats (avocados/nuts, etc) as well as the protein I'd eat are lean meats, eggs and protein shakes. I also cut down my carbs to mostly veggies and for a snack, popcorn, healthy popped/low salt/no butter. My one guilty pleasure is

Actemra and weight
I've been on Actemra for about a year. Been off it for a few weeks because of tooth extraction and rheumatologist wants me to restart. RX insert and other research says most biologics and more specifically tocilizumab (Actemra) causes weight gain. I lost significant weight while so sick with GCA even

LCHF without dairy?
Hi there, I’m currently calorie counting which I find fits with family life because I can eat the same meals as wife and kids. Interested in exploring LCHF but I have a dairy intolerance (that’s a big part of why I dismissed it as an option months ago). Wondering if anyone does LCHF without cheese,
