Blood tests = Can of Worms. Anaemia or Hyperthyroidism? B12 & Serum Folate too low or OK? Other results all over the place! Any ideas?
Hi All, I have no idea what any of this means, but even I know some of it looks skewiffy! A couple of the results were flagged by the test itself; these are RDW and MCHC which may relate to thyroid function. Also the Serum Folate and B12 look a bit low so may be affecting my thyroid too. Are you able

Low carb rebel (inspired by Rosina1871's question of yesterday)
This was originally going to be a response to Rosina1871, but I then decided to make it a separate post as I would like to see other people's comments on my own experience. I too understood that 'a low carb diet is necessary when on steroids to avoid weight gain', so for a time I diligently followed

Naive question
I know that a low carb diet is necessary when on steroids to avoid weight gain, but does the different dosage of steroids influence the amount of carbs you can eat? Ie if you are on 30mg are any carbs more likely to give weight gain than say if you are only on 5mg. Sorry if I haven’t worded that too

Low carb toad-in-the-hole/yorkshire pudding/popovers
The recipe has been going around the internet, it's simple and delicious. 1 egg 60 g/ml of double cream. 8 g/1 tbsp arrowroot flour Mix them together, and use as you would use a flour based batter. In this case, I put the sausages in a 200C oven with ghee (you want hot fat) to until cooked, then pour

Blood test results. Help please.
After two days of chasing round in ever decreasing circles I've finally managed to obtain a copy of my last blood test results. As you all suspected, the only thyroid test was TSH. These bloods were taken at 1:40pm after breakfast, coffee, and lunch. No one mentioned needing to have them taken first

Best way to trial reintroducing gluten?
I have Hashimoto's, am on 100mcg Levo, take all the recommended vitamins but still feeling fatigue and joint pain. I eat healthy diet and have been completely gluten free (not even oats) for over a year and this is the third time I've been gluten free for a considerable time. I'm not convinced the gluten

Brain Fog
Hi I'm new here, though I've posted on the Thyroid Forum before. I'm a 51 year old male. In 2014 I went on a low carb high fat diet and it affected my thyroid function, causing low energy and brain fog. I self-medicated with dessicated thyroid for four or five years without any relief of symptoms - I

www.I can bore a glass eye to sleep/is this as good as it gets.com
I am not sure whether it was the consequence of my application of reverse psychology or my-on the whole-affable GP suddenly having an epiphany, but the last couple of telephone consultations that I’ve had, have been quite constructive. I did however have to collect all the toys that were left littered

Gadgets
I think this is all the [i]gadgets [/i]I have acquired since I cut back on carbohydrates. My favourite and the most used is the mortar and pestle (the world's original gadget?). I use it almost every day, and sometimes stroke it when I walk past. It's beautiful. The most essential is the hand blender

'Interesting' Endo Appointment Yesterday!!
So, my much awaited endocrinologist appointment finally came yesterday. I took my husband with me, as he has a far more science based brain than me, and can remember all the articles I've given him to read (I read and can't seem to retain information these days. Anyway, I had printed out all my thyroid

If not Albutrix then what?
I'm considering giving this very
low
(veg)
protein
diet
+ keto supplement a whirl to see whether it has an effect on the numbers. Lee Hull has his keto supplement Albutrix with the selling point being its low calcium as well as low nitrogen. But it doesn't appear to be cheap at $179 a month.
