Questions about adding T3 to levothyroxine for the first time
Hello everyone, I have been given a private prescription for liothyronine (2 x 2.5mcg per day) which should hopefully arrive in a couple of weeks. I'm currently on 150mcg levothyroxine which I take at night. I prefer this as it means I can eat/drink tea as soon as I wake up, and I noticed I feel more

Stopping Ibrutinib?
Husband has been on Ibrutinib for 2 years and numbers were good until about 4 months when his WBC and Neutrophils dropped dramatically. WBC is now 2.2 and neutrophils are .8. Doctor suspended his meds for a week because he is concerned about COVID-19. I am worried that the CLL will roar back. He will

Monitoring the basics
Hi I have been looking at the various posts on this forum over the last few months and am learning a lot about my CLL from all of you (big thanks to everyone). This is my first post. I was diagnosed with CLL 11q in January 2019 at the age of 68 years. This was quite a shock to me as the diagnosis came

Could this be fibromyalgia?
Hi, before I start I'll just make clear I'm not looking for a diagnosis - just asking for some clarity! I have a long-awaited rheumatologist's appt in a couple of weeks. I've been waiting since Sept 2019, almost a year, and now it's a stupid telephone appt, thanks to Covid. And I'm not good on phones

Triglycerides and BCR
Analyzing my test results I found an unbelievably high correlation of PSA to the triglycerides count as computed from cholesterol, i.e. 5*(Total - HDL -
LDL
). The correlation coefficient of 97.8%, (R^2=0.956) is very HIGH.
