Medichecks Recommendation needed 🤔
Hi All I’ve read about Medichecks on here, the various tests they can do etc., so before I spend out - I would appreciate any advice anyone can give. 😀 I’m awaiting blood test result printouts from my GP which I can collect tomorrow. Over the weekend, I’ve been doing some research and reading. Common

Hair loss and what tests to do
Hi, I have Hashimoto’s and have started taking levothyroxine, increased a few weeks ago to 75mcg. I suspect I need an increase as feel worse after feeling like I had a little more energy again, but guess I need to wait and test bloods before this happens. I already had dry, fragile hair that was snapping

Frustrated and confused
Endo appointment yesterday. As usual it's not the same one as last time. Explain your history? Don't they have notes? I think you need to consider RAI or surgery as there is no proof that Carbimazole is safe for long term use although some people have been on it for 15 years !!! My response, I don't

Desperate for pain relief.
To briefly explain I have just been diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis I have a chocolate cyst & have been suffering excruciating pain in my right pelvis for over 3 months. The good news is that I’ve finally found night time pain relief which allows me to sleep through. I was prescribed voltarol

Pain Relief that will help me get back to sleep ? Willing to try anything !
Hi All, I’m looking for some advice, I really don’t know what to do as I feel like I’m being dismissed all the time and it’s really starting to affect my overall physical and mental well-being. I have now had three surgery’s for endometriosis, my most recent last year, they told me I now have adenomyosis

Vaccines, Ibrutinib toxicity,Dr. Rai on a cure, Dr Ghia on TP563 testing and ERIC

I have had 2 teeth removed so far but I still get the pain where the teeth should be. The last time it happened was in

A conundrum for use v. non-use of specific amino acids in muscle atrophy and immune support for CLL patients
CLL and cancer patients, particularly those over 70, are often concerned about muscle wasting or muscle atrophy. Sarcopenia is characterized as the progressive loss of muscle mass that is typically associated with aging. These patients are frequently advised to increase their intake of dietary proteins

Rookie question
Hi there, I had a full thyroidectomy in summer 2018 (follicular and papillary cancer found), radioactive iodine at the end of last year and have been for a scan and blood tests (post Thyrogen injections) a couple of weeks ago. Thankfully all seems fine but I’m curious about the results of the thyroid

Am I really fibro?
I am 29 and was diagnosed with fibro only within the last 12 months, can't remember exactly when... my sister-in-law has fibro and she has it seemingly much worse than me and for that reason my brother and the family are inclined to believe I have been misdiagnosed. It all seems to fit but I am confused

MD Anderson/Mayo or Peter MacCallum for treatment?
Hi all, My husband is just diagnosed with CLL with WBC at 49, Platelet at 77, enlarged spleen 20 cm and enlarged liver 17 cm. 70% lymphocytes in bone marrow. The FISH test is not available yet until next week so the treatment plan is also not available. But seem that he’s on Stage IV under RAI classification
