Guess what? Your body has changed and will never be the same.
I recently read a post from a guy that stated he had muscle and stamina loss. The post and responses then went on in a very hand wringing way to ask and discuss things like, “should I eat whey”, “what about protein and in what form”, “I never eat or drink dairy products”. It then went on to lament all

normal TSH help.
I am about to go to the doctors in an hour to speak about some blood tests I had done last week. To me the results are on the higher side. From what I’m reading most doctors don’t like to do antibody tests and t3 and t4. How can I persuade them to do these just to check my levels? I had lots of other

Success with GP - for now
Just had an appointment with my GP and after lots of persuasion and me quoting NICE guidelines at him, he's agreed to reinstate my previous daily 100mcg Levo. 🥳This does come with the condition of reassessing in 6-8 weeks after bloods done. (I'll cross that bridge when I get there) I got the usual

weird stool?
hey so I'm undergoing some tests due to stomach pain, I had an ultrasound done which came back clear but I'm still terrified I have pancreatic cancer or something like that! I'm 30 years old which I know would be rare but not unheard of! Could the ultrasound miss this?? I have upper back pain that comes

newly diagnosed anemia
Hi. I’m new to HealthUnlocked and to this group. I’m also in America, so I hope it’s OK that I post here. I’ll try to put in all the info I have and follow proper posting guidelines. It’s taken me a while to be able to get this post all typed up due to tiredness and brain fog. I just had 3 month follow-up

anybody had these tests before?
Hi Everyone Long time, no post so I apologise. Since I last spoke to anyone I have been diagnosed with Osteoperosis, so fighting a number of demons. My Rheumatologist has been concerned about my ever decreasing levels of calcium despite eating calcium rich food and doubling my prescribed Calcium supplements

Vitamin timings
Morning from not at all sunny Wales. I don’t know why I struggle with a vitamin routine and I wonder if I’m alone on this? Is it okay to take all of these at the same time after breakfast: Vit D/K, B12, Folate, and DHEA? If I take them then they aren’t near any thyroid medication but wanted

Vitamin and antibody blood test
I got my results back from my test I did on Monday. I’ve attached screen shots below. My ferritin has improved and my antibodies have always been 80 but they seem to have halved ! My vitamin d has also improved. Please can you have a look and see what you think ? And what are thyroglobulin antibodies

Iron blood test results are back, please could you take a look for me?

I now have these results back and would be really grateful if you could let me know your thoughts please : Medichecks BLOOD TEST

Still low on vitamin D
I’ve been taking Better you vitamin d for three months and my levels haven’t improved at all. I was surprised that it was so low in the first place, as I spent a month in Australia in September and would have thought I’d got enough exposure to the sun. I would be grateful for any thoughts and advice

Early morning blood tests
I see on other posts that an early morning blood test before 09:00hrs is suggested for an accurate reading. I went to have bloods taken yesterday morning at 08:55hrs for ferritin. My phlebotomist found that my blood flow was a bit on the slow side... but ok for the lab test. She thought she might have

How should Levo dosing work - a 101 explanation needed please
sorry my brain is mush. I have read a lot of posts, tried Dr Google etc. I could do with a really basic explanation to help understand what my Endo is likely to talk about this week re: Levo dosing. what I think I know… Levo replaces what’s missing, T4. This results in lower TSH and higher T3 (assuming

Advice Needed Following Test Results
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in November 2023 and started on a 50mcg dose of Levothyroxine. In March this year, my GP increased this to 75mcg (50mcg Accord and 25mcg Mercury Pharma). This week I took a private blood test to check my latest thyroid and vitamin status. These are my latest thyroid
