Does anyone NOT have a conversion issue, but still have low FT3??
Hi All: Has anyone experienced "in range" FT4 and low FT3, without a high rT3, aka conversion issue? I'm trying to develop my argument to ask my doc to try me on t3 only. I'm having conversion issues, most likely related to the low iron and or adrenals. He won't give me IV iron, though I seriously need

Advised to come to this thread by thyroid uk diagnosed with megaloblastic anaemia
I was put on ferrous sulphate and folic acid. Will dig out my exact results all I remember is it's non iron deficiency anaemia (I think that's what they said) I have so much going on in my health. Seaside susie sent me this way. On lots of other drugs too including rivaroxaban as I had a pulmonary embolism

Since April this year I have also had iron deficieny anaemia due to heavy menstrual periods. I have hydroxocobalamin 1mg/1ml injections every three

Iron blood test advice
Hi all, I've ordered an iron status check as I have low ferritin levels but want to be sure that the rest of my iron levels are also low. It will look at transferrin, ferritin, serum iron and the ratios. I'd like some advice on whether I should stop supplementing iron before I do it and also whether

Anaemia confusion
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me to understand this whole anaemia business because I am deeply confused! I had the FBC done a few months ago, and the GP called me and told me that I was not anaemic but my red blood cells were slightly enlarged so they were going to test B12 and folate. Subsequently
