Supplements and levothyroxine
Hi, After recent bloods my T4 was increased from 112.5mcg to 150mcg T4. I've not included results as I've done that before and it's not what I'd like help on. My next blood tests are on 25th July (8 weeks after increase). It has been recommended on this site that I also supplement Vit D3 as it was

Looking for Ozzie Bob
Around the middle of May this year, Ozzie Bob posted a link to a story about an A-Fib sufferer who spent about 10 years systematically trying one thing (supplement, vitamin, mineral etc) at a time until he discovered a "cure" for himself. I remember he found he had to keep Calcium lowish and I think

Vitamin d3
I have been taking 4000iu vitamin D3 & K2-MK-7 for a few months now and just noticed it says do not take if on anti coagulants. Does anyone know why this would be? I am in permanent AF at the moment but I thought that was because I broke my wrist and went into shock. Could it be the vitamin D ??

Hydroxvchloroquine or Methotrexate
Have new consultant who wants to change my dmard to methotrexate but I am really concerned because I am on blood thinners for past DVTs, have atrial fibrillation and low blood pressure. I was diagnosed with RA in March and saw a consultant who decided the best treatment for me was a high dose of steroids

Feeling so tired and absolutely drained
Good afternoon, l wonder whether anyone would be kind enough please to see if they can help me? I have been feeling very tired and drained for several months and I am not sure if it might also have been aggravated by Covid, which I had in March this year. I have had a series of private blood tests,

Vitamin D3 Dosage
Hello everyone! I’ve just about finished my high dosage prescribed 20,000u x 3 a week for 6 weeks of D3 and due to start my daily 1000u after that. In the last week I’ve notice my veins in legs and arms have become very hard and pronounced and legs particularly visible varicose looking veins

Heart rate over 100. Should I lower or up my Levo??
Hi I was wondering if someone had any advice on whether or not I should lower or up my Levo dose? I had upped from 100mg to 112.5 mg beginning of June, but my heart-rate just keeps going over 100bpm when I’m not doing anything. I’m still tired and feel as if I just can’t be bothered. I’ve been sitting

Hashimoto's, levothyroxine intolerance. Help please anyone?
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in February 2021, following a routine blood test, and put on 25mcg levothyroxine and was fine. In June 2021 my dose was increased to 50mcg. Again, I thought I was fine, although in hindsight, I think I may have been having side effects, but due to working etc missed

Blood results from medichecks
Here are my recent results from medichecks. I would appreciate any comments I supplement with Magnesium , selenium vitamin D3 and k2 and Thorne Basic B and a B12 spray. My GP has seen my low tsh from an NHS blood test taken at the same time as the medichecks and wants to speak to me I should imagine

Testosterone Injections
I recently had my blood sample taken and results reviewed by the Men's Health Clinic. They couldn't do anything for me because my testosterone levels were in the 'normal' range (specifics below). To be honest they didn't take me seriously from first contact due to me not being in the 50+ age bracket,
