Switching to NDT or adding T3?
Hi everyone, Related to my earlier post about sources of T3 and NDT I'd like some advice on whether and how to take these. I had an appointment with an NHS endocrinologist this week who dismissed my symptoms and refused any dose or medication changes. He insisted that the following results were '

Leg Pain - 4th Week on Lupron
Hi Friends, I'm on 4th week of ADT (Lupron+Abiraterone). Yesterday I started feeling right upper leg pain in the quads area. I'm not sure whether it's bone or muscle pain. But it's getting worse. I can barely walk. At first I was thinking may be I strained it. But I didn't do anything different than

B12 sublingual
Hi, I suppose this has been addressed before, but....Is there any reason not to take sublingual B12 around the same time as ndt? Usually I space the sublingual B12 a couple hours away from ndt but figured the B12 is bypassing the digestive system & the ndt is not. My TSH, FT4&3 are all good. Since

low iron and folate
My hypo daughter is clearly feeling tired. She leads a very busy life but from own hypo past experience I can see she is going downhill. Here are some of the results she received back in August when she was advised to take Spatone. At that time she had been taking iron tablets but had stopped because

proton pump inhibitors
It is a fact that taking Ptoton pump inhibitors can prevent the absorption of Magnesium ,an essential element for Cardiac conductivity and can influence AF in susceptible patients,so really should be used with caution if you have AF. Also recent research has also shown that Proton pump inhibitors has

My mother’s PSP , an update
Last Wednesday, we took my mom to ER, she was having diarrhea and was severely dehydrated and was having sever electrolyte imbalance. They decided to admit her to investigate her condition.

Ectopics and bisoprolol
Hi, I had a big increase in the number of ectopics I get last year. Also, had bigeminy and atrial tachycardia. Cardiologist suggested 1.25mg of bisoprolol which helped reduce the number for a few weeks but then they became even worse so I was advised to take 2.5mg. Same story: some improvement for a

Vitamin and mineral supplements? My latest results
Hi all, I've just had my latest Blue Horizon results (see image) which I would welcome comments on, particularly regarding the vitamins and minerals I might need to supplement. All blood tests were done no later than 9.30am, no levo for 24 hours before. I've worked really hard this year on my diet, but

Results and doctor visits
Hi everyoneOh the stress with these doctors. So I got my bloods done last week at 9.15 am. So I got extra done since I knew what to ask for thankfully because of your help here. Today I went back for results and honestly, it's like the light is on and no one home, the frustration. We don't test for

pregabalin and iron
Hello, I have tried googling if there is any interaction between pregabalin and iron but can’t find anything. I take an iron tablet due to low iron (morning and it has not helped) but will switch to iron bisglycinate at night after reading posts here. I stop eating at 6:30pm so I can take my pregabalin

Can of worms
I have always been grateful for all the help I have received from HealthUnlocked since I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's some eight years ago. For the last few years, I have done very well on 100 mcgs of Levothyroxine and 8 mcgs T3 per day. I find a Keto, completely gluten free and almost entirely organic

Colonoscopy
I had a very stressful colonoscopy last Thursday. Stressful in itself but rendered more so by the Practice Nurse who fasttracked me, saying, ‘Good luck, I hope I’m wrong.’ I defy anyone to not think the worst after that! Anyway, the scope was clear of cancer, or polyps but confirmed what I already knew

Bowel inflammation - any link to PMR/GCA?
I have had problems with diarrhoea for several years now. I have had bad reactions in the past to sertraline (antidepressant) and amoxillin, with constant diarrhoea for several months. However my calprotectin levels (measuring gut inflammation) were normal. Since diagnosis I have been getting frequent

Vitamin Deficiciencies and lack of GP support
We have been pushing mum’s GP to read up on the Mayo Algorithm to try and get to a workable solution… We have stalled on the first hurdle unfortunately…. We requested that a full blood test be taken to determine any deficiencies in vitamins B1,B3,B6,B12,D3,K2,Potassium, Copper and Magnesium.

Escape from Augmentation
I have continued to make progress on my path to getting my dopamine receptors back to somewhere near normal. I last used a DA patch in September. I am using buprenorphine patches and pregabalin as RLS blockers to assist in the process. There is some improvement (perhaps 60%) in my sleep regime and in

Strontium citrate
I was diagnosed with osteoporosis 10 years ago. I am now 73. I have been taking v D and calcium/magnesium and walking and gardening. But I have continued to loose BMD. I have not gone on any medication because I am reluctant to take a drug that interferes with the body's natural bone remodelling process
