Struggling to solve hypothyroid puzzle, please help
I have had hypothyroid symptoms for as long as I can remember but they have become much worse after an adverse drug reaction 2 years ago. I have tested all the hormones and the only abnormality was free t3/reverse t3 ratio, and somewhat high cortisol. I have subsequently taken t3 only at good doses

Good news for a rainy morning??
I have just received a copy of a letter to my gp from my consultant with the results of my recent ultrasound. (This was back in Feb when I was jaundiced and have fluid retention again). It says that the ultrasound shows an irregular looking liver with the enlarged spleen. Shows minimal ascites. Liver

Day 2 home from hospital
Hi. I just had a major Ovarian Cancer Debulking surgery. Complete radical hysterectomy appendix removed and the fatty area on my stomach. My Dr removed the bloody mass tumor and believes he got it all. I start Chemo in two weeks after the port placement. I feel waves of tears come on. Is this normal

Took it about 3pm. By 5pm felt really awful - literally struggling to keep my eyes open, but with a tight feeling in

I also always feel in a state of malaise like I'm never really concentrating properly and forget things that I have just been told. As well as this I've been having nights where

Vegan for four months, now
Hello, I am a new member and thought I would share my story. I became a vegetarian in Christmas 2013 after being asked to prepare a leg of pork for Christmas lunch. I suddenly had a realisation that this lump of meat was actually a leg that had been running around not long before and although I persevered
