Does topical retinoic acid effect the thyroid??
I believe that 25 years of daily topical
Retin
a
has had an effect on my ability to convert t4 to active t3 based on my blood work. I do not have an autoimmune disorder. Wondering if it has something to do with retinol binding receptors and thyroid receptors?? Any ideas!????

Allergy to the sun
I have been diagnosed with solar urticaria and have tried all sunscreena, all combinations of antihistamines and Xolair injections, (which worked for a short time then quit working.) Has anyone tried PUVA (photosensitivity treatments) or low dose naltrexone? All I can do is wear many layers of clothes

How to measure RANK/L and OPG serum levels?
Hi all, I have 2 questions and then I'll explain my story: - Are RANKL and OPG available as blood tests (medical journals show patient testing of serum levels of these but I've struggled to find places that offer them as blood tests)? - Should I be seeing an endocrinologist or geneticist for issues related

Hepatologist Appt 🥰
For those who have been wondering, I finally had my appt yesterday. He isn’t the one I’ve been waiting for. Seemed the other one was taking a little too long. My GI’s NP made a phone call to Dr Mantry, head of Hepatology at Methodist Liver Institute in Dallas. (Methodist denied him seeing me a few months

It seems to fall in line with the advice to not take anything, including supplements and, in some cases, certain foods
