My latest blood test results - how to get doctor to consider symptoms
I suspect I have
malabsorption
issues. I haven't had a recent vit/minerals test, but have had low Vit D (61, and 65) in the past for which I've been taking daily 1600 iu replacement for the past 8 months.

Dr Allahabadia. Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield
He listened to all I had to say and recommended many tests I've never had before, including tests for
malabsorption
, which I've wanted for ages. The upshot of it is that he's willing to prescribe 40 mcgs if Liothyronine for me for the time being and until we have the test results in.

Every Armour increase,my muscles and joints ache more, is this fillers?
which i gather are corn, in which case i could switch to WP or could it be that since taking the NDT i have been able to eat a little more (chronic
malabsorption
problems and gut pain) and still being undermedicated digestion still dominates gut issues ? Anybody else aching with Armour ?

Illogical advice from GP
The tests for celiac and serum cortisol came back within range - they were tested in case my low in-range folate levels* were due to
malabsorption
or overt stress - and she commented that my bloods are, quote, 'all very good'. 'So why am I feeling so awful?' I asked her.

Allergy clinic test results
This parasite apparently causes
malabsorption
leading to a wide variety of symptoms including chronic fatigue, IBS, food sensitivities, bloating, depression, hair loss and painful joints. It damages the gut lining and is associated with inflammatory bowel disease and Crohns.

Any suggestions as to whether I need a B multivit with RDI or higher please ( if I get the go ahead for injections!)
Guess if B12 is depleted, then potentially other vitamins could be too due to
malabsorption
?

Sehcat test.
He sent me for a Sehcat scan, a test for bile acid
malabsorption
. If it does, this can cause painful stomach cramping, smelly wind and lots and lots of diarrhoea. There is medication you can take to help this. If you have these symptoms, it might be worth asking your GP to refer you.

Injections not working
So I think I either have a
malabsorption
problem or a tc11 problem. I think she will now refer me and I will have to wait months to see someone. Has anyone had the same problem or got any advice I can suggest to my doctor when I see her?

Bile Acid Malabsorption ( BAM )
Does anyone have bile acid/salt
malabsorption
? I have this and it's pretty bad at the moment. I also have coeliac disease, b12 deficiency, Graves' disease but no thyroid plus a few others. My life is ruled by the loo, food and meds. How do you all cope.

Severe IBS D and Bile Salt Malabsorption
I was recently diagnosed with severe Bile Salt
Malabsorption
too, so have come to the conclusion that, basically, my body hates food as it causes no end of problems whenever I eat anything at all. I started on a low-FODMAP regime about 14 weeks ago now.

Gillybean1 Arm, neck and calf ache after increasing very low dose Armour, and thoughts much appreciated.
I am 8 stone, good cholesterol,good blood sugars, lousy diet due to complex
malabsorption
problems but improving via Armour and digestive enzymes. Vitamin D up, B12 up, Ferritin very low on the cusp, hindered by not being able to tolerate iron supps + cant digest meat.

What type of symptom is a Swollen Tongue?
I had one injection a week for 4 weeks originally, but the tongue never went down and I eventually managed to get one injection a month after that because I am on a vegan diet and have
malabsorption
issues. Tongue remains swollen though.

At the end of my tether :-(
Now, I have read about
malabsorption
of levo, it's rare but it does happen and in those cases the patient is given IV thyroxine either into a vein or into the muscle. Now, has this or similar to this happened to anyone else here? If so, have they managed to get you under control?
