Starting T3 supplementation and question about pregnancy
Hello, I have Hashimoto, and have been prescribed some t3 to take in combination with my levothyroxine. In fact, despite not feeling great, I have been putting off starting the new treatment for a while now. I do think it is time I start it though. The original GP in France who prescribed this to me

LPR Valve
Yes, you can get surgery to tighten valve and control GERD, nissan fundliopocation or LINX. However, both of those have drawbacks and can have complications. I have benefited a lot by taking slippery elm, marshmallow, DGL, and aloe vera several times a day and before bed. Also elevate head of bed, no

New results in... any advice welcome
It's been a while since I've posted - 10 months or so... I've been very lazy about meds for months and finally recommitted myself to the process when my hair REALLY started to get thin and I got even heavier. Below are my Oct and December Thriva results. I haven't spoken to a doctor in months about

TOWARDS A POTENTIAL OPERATIONAL CURE IN PATIENTS WITH POLYCYTHAEMIA VERA?
Conclusion A sizable proportion of patients with PV achieved operational cure after 5 years’ ropeginterferon alfa-2b treatment. Lower age and lower allele burden at baseline predicted allele burden <10% at 5 years, suggesting that ropeginterferon alfa-2b should be initiated early in PV to achieve the

Adaptogens and thyroid problems
Any advice on whether adaptogens such as ashwagandha, aloe Vera etc are good to take for hypothyroidism and Hashimotos? I recently read an article by Dr Izabella Wentz about how adaptogens can be good to take for people with Hashimotos. Wanted to know how you guys feel?

Pfizer Vaccine
My dad has

too and had the Oxford Vaccine last week (he lives around the corner from me and went to the GP surgery). He did have headache/shivers but only for 24 hours.

Ropeginterferon alfa-2b versus phlebotomy in low-risk patients with polycythaemia vera (Low-PV study)
There is no evidence that phlebotomy alone is sufficient to steadily maintain haematocrit on target level in low-risk patients with
polycythaemia
vera
. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of ropeginterferon alfa-2b on top of the standard phlebotomy regimen with phlebotomy alone.
