Our story
I am a 34 year old wife and mother My family and I have been through a world wind of events to say I’m grateful we are together would be a gross understatement. This is my story, the one God gave me to share, but it wouldn’t be complete without first telling you ourstory. On our 4th wedding anniversary

RA & Anemia
Hi all - hope you are doing well. I come here today with a question about iron deficiency anemia and rheumatoid arthritis. I have been anemic my whole life - I had PICA as a kid where I ate sand and crayons and other weird stuff because I had such a severe mineral deficiency and this wasn't detected

Results from Blue Horizon
As per my original post and advice: I got my results from Blue Horizon, the pdf was zero bytes, so I have sent of for the actual results to be sent again. This is the comments, not that I understand the last paragraph.

What a Rollercoaster
So after being elated that dad was moved from London back to our local hospital things then seemed to go downhill pretty fast. They just didn't seem to be doing anything for him and it was so frustrating after he has pulled through so much. Now faced with kidneys failing and paralysed vocal chords.

Dr Says I'm not Hypo - can anemia wreak havoc on thyroid?
This will be a little long winded, so I do apologise. To give you some history - my mother and sister both had fibroyd tumours. My mother had Grave's disease and later thyroid cancer. She went through absolute hell trying to get the right treatment. I developed fibroids when I became pregnant in 1999

Whatever next?.
As if having cirhossis wasn't bad enough, I seem to be gaining a new illness every month. Recently my face dropped on left side along with chronic pains in my left foot, elbow and ear. Turned out to be bells palsy and periphial neuropathy which I have to now take pregablin tablets for life. The latest

Wegener's granulomatous (vasculitis.)
I was diagnosed with wegener's back in 2008. My first treatment was primarily cyclophosphamide . Sadly I had a bad reaction to it in that it seemed to stop my body producing blood. I nearly died and had to have emergency transfusion. They switched my medication to no avail to prednisolone and azathioprine

Recent diagnosis of Hep C
OK.. three weeks ago was diagnosed with Hepatitis C which i could have contracted from a blood transfusion 50 years ago or a brief period of drug use 40 years ago. My ALT level has been 75 for some years but now reads 92 (I think it is ALT anyway), Had ultrasound when reading was 75 but no hep C blood

Last chemo delayed
Hello Ladies, I was looking forward to getting my last chemo but, alas, it did not happen. My bloods were at 7.8 so I had to have a transfusion. I think we all agree that it's just so draining sitting in the one attitude for so long, but that's the way it has to be. I actually feel a lot better than

Help with blood tests.
Hi I have been following the forum for a while now and hope that someone will be able to help. I am not sure why but my TSH has been intermittently checked from 2003 onwards and has always been around 2 (1.16-4.2) At the beginning of this year it was again checked as part of hypertension screening and

So I've been on steroids for just over 2 months now and my platelets are no higher than they got after a couple of weeks on them, so last week I was still at only 21 and taking 50ml of steroids so now I'm on immunosuppressants and 40ml of steroids! But I've already noticed a lower appetite which is good
