Folate bloods
I had a recent blood test which showed my folate level to be 9.1. I didnt get any ranges from the surgery but when I phoned them yesterday they said that my level needed to be above 3.8. My friend who is a nurse in the same area where I live gave me a range of 4.5-45.3 nm0l/l. I am already anaemic

I wasn't recovering from the appendectomy, so I went back to the doctor who then diagnosed me with IBS. I'm on Mebeverine 135mg three times a day. Nothing seems to be changing, I get abdominal

Ferritin etc
Hi here are results for ferritin etc. I saw my GP tonight and he has said yes I have Hashimotos hypothyroidism. He has agreed to start me on a low dose of Levothyroxine of 25mcg because of possible Addison's disease symptoms - sweating, weight loss, dizziness, salt cravings, insomnia and dark patches

HELP! - I'm about to be diagnosed with Fibromyalgia
I finally got my recent blood results (including T3) and got to see my GP. He said all my results are normal, including my thyroid results and B12. The only problem he can see is high serum osmolality and he will refer me to endocrinologist to check for diabetes insipidus – very rare disease affecting

I feel as if I'm heading for a
nervous
breakdown
and can't stop crying. Seen 2 Drs. who keep telling me to stay on 75mcg and it will right itself. Asked to see an Endo. and was finally referred but the Endo. refused to see me sending a letter saying he wouldn't see me as I was OK!

Iron supplement recommendations? Reacting to the ones I currently take.
I've been noticing lately that I'm getting itchy areas on my body - no rash or anything. Have been checking all my supplements/medicines for exactly what fillers they contain and have just discovered my ferrous fumarate tablets (210 mg manufactured by Aver Healthcare) contain sodium lauryl sulphate.
