advice needed please re iron and thyroxine
hi there, I’d really appreciate some advice. I’ve been on Thyroxine for a number of years and have been fine, I’ve just been told that I have Anaemia and have started on Ferrous Fumarate tabs 210 mg. I’ve started to feel tearful and anxious this last week and wonder if the iron is affecting my thyroid

Bowel and bladder problems after Radiotherapy
Hi, I am Maz and I am 76 years old, I still work but from home now. I have suffered with multiple sclerosis for over 40 years although apart from the early years it hasn't bothered me too much until 2013 when I was diagnosed with anal cancer stage T3. I underwent some chemo and a great deal of radiotherapy

High BP during dialysis
Hello, everyone! Today I’m reaching out on behalf of a friend who hasn’t joined this community yet but would greatly appreciate any advice you can offer. Her mom has been on dialysis for about 3 months and is having a rough go of it. During treatment her mom’s pressure shoots up dangerously high,

Hyponatremia, Raynaud's and P.S.V.T
I recently was taken to hospital with a bad episode of P.S.V.T., a condition I've had since I was eight. Blood tests showed that my sodium level was a bit low. It has been at the sub-clinical level for some time. Raynaud's which I have had since my 20's suddenly began to cause me problems: Pains and

Are all Blood Pressure Meds Awful?
I realise they may be/are lifesaving, but after nearly 30 years I am running out of options for BP control. For many years I took 25mg atenolol, 20 Lisinopril and 1.5 Indapamide. The latter seemed to make the biggest difference. I can’t take large doses of beta blockers as they stop me from breathing

Blood test results in full. Can anyone find a cause in there for my continued fatigue etc?
I still have the same symptoms, although some have improved a bit, but not gone, by any means. Still housebound. I list below Blood test results. Can anyone suggest an issue that may cause my symptoms because my GP says no action, normal. Serum 25 - HO Vit D3 level 135nmol/L 50-174

Can't increase my iron levels
Hi all, I posted in February 2023 my low iron results and started taking 200 Ferrous Sulphate daily then. My iron results after 3 months were Ferritin 39 (20-204) Serum iron 18.6 (4.4-27.9) Feb 23 was: serum iron 11, ferritin was 29. So not a huge improvement. But now, a year on, even worse! Despite

Pain in right side
Have a tender painful area on my right side toward my upper back. At first I thought it must be a deep bruise, but it is not getting better. I don’t believe it is the right location to be my liver or a kidney. I do not have a gallbladder. What is it? Could it be my kidney after all? Doctor appointment

Mum's battle
Hi all, Mum has suffered from adrenal insufficiency over the past 15 years, as well as pernicious anemia, hypothyroidism, low WBC count and was hospitalised several times with low electrolytes. The electrolyte imbalance was caused by the cortisol acetate supplement she takes. She was numerous doctors

Disappointed 😞
Hi everyone, it's been a minute since I posted anything, hope everyone is doing well. I went in for blood work which they have me do every two weeks. Last visit was almost three weeks my hemoglobin was 7.6 today it was 7.3 which they said has been stable. The most disheartening information were seeing

sodium
Hi I got blood results recently and I have hypothyroidism which is been treated with Eltroxin 25mcg and I also have low sodium. Sodium level is 134 which is just one below normal range. I’m not been treated for this and I’m wondering is this something I should be concerned about and get it investigated

Understand Your Blood Work
this is from a Canadian PBC Society PBC FACT SHEET (09/02/16) (may vary by lab) ALP Alkaline Phosphatase This enzyme occurs mainly in liver cells next to bile ducts, and in bone. The blood level is raised in PBC and is the main enzyme that is checked to see if you have a response to treatment
