FT3 & FT4 on Levo and NDT
Dear all, since my last post I have felt extremely unwell. Granted my Ferritin is low again at 15 (increased ferrous fumarate to x 3 per day). I asked doctor last week to test T4 and T3 and explained situation re thyroid meds! So the lab tested them, as follows: FT3 3.3 range 3.1 - 6.8 FT4 11.6 range

I raced to her college.. (3 hours away,) and got her set up on meds, with a psychiatrist and a counselor. ... and then I basically had a
nervous
breakdown
. Insomnia, anxiety, depression, the works. It was HORRIBLE.

Ferritin Facts please!
Hi all, I wondered if anyone could please point me in the right direction. After a blood test showing my ferritin level to be 74 whilst on 200mg prescription ferrous sulphate daily a different GP has advised I no longer need to take this (whilst continuing to prescribe B12 injections and folate). I remember

Hypophosphatasia
Recently had a number of blood tests. One test which has been upper end of low for about 4 years is alkaline phosphatase. Normal range, 46-116 U/L. My results were 2016: 39; 2017: 29; 2018: 32; 2019: 40. I've never had any of the tooth or bone abnormalities generally associated with hypophosphatasia,

Over-medicated or Having Low Cortisol on Thyroid-S?
I just started taking Thyroid-S after being hypothyroid for two months from a bad batch of NDT. Maybe I need to give Thyroid-S more time, or maybe I need to treat the adrenals first, but I thought I'd share my experience on it so far when I take 2.5 Grains. I used to take 2.5 Grains of WP, Nature-Throid

In what conditions (other than Hasimotos) are TG Antibodies raised (but TPO AB's are not)? Also results interpretation please.
In what conditions (other than Hasimoto's) are TG Antibodies raised please? I'm struggling to obtain a clear answer on this. Below are my MediChecks full thyroid panel results; the MediChecks GP stated that my results indicate Hasimoto's, although my TSH indicates my thyroid function is "fine" currently

Private vs NHS?
Hi All As seems sadly to be the norm, my GP too has ruled out B12 deficiency & PA on the strength of blood tests falling within ‘normal ranges’, despite a 14 yr history of symptoms inc neurological deficits, maternal Pernicious Anaemia treated by B12 injection, & paternal & sibling coeliac disease (
