Trying to understand thyroid test results
Good morning I'm new here & been reading posts, it's been incredibly helpful.I'm 61, been feeling unwell since last summer, pushed my GP for tests etc but now paying privately for endocrinologist who is testing everything! My latest results are: Serum free triiodothyronine 5.6 (3.5-5.8) Serum TSH 5.32

Versandapo Panpharma B12 available ?
I have had 3 emails from Versandapo alerting me Panpharma is now in stock. Each time I go on their site and check it says currently out of stock ! I’ve been checking on the same day I receive the emails. Is this happening to anyone else ? I have already purchased the Pascoe brand B12 1500ug ampoules

Low B12
Please can you lovely people let me know which B12 and Vit B complex are the best bearing in mind I’m vegetarian and dairy free? My levels are miserable! Thank you 🥰

omeprazole
so just discovered that stomach acid inhibeters(omeprazole) stop you producing b12 and can lead to restless leg! now taking b12 supplements and NO rls for 20 days. May not work for you but for 14 pounds its worth a punt. good luck

Lupus re-diagnosis UCTD
Hello All, so when I last posted I had been to the rheumatologist Prof X and told my bloods were not suggestive of lupus but he did not suggest want condition could be the underlying cause of my symptoms. This morning he chose not to see me, instead I saw a very nice female doctor in clinical research

Update on my daughter's GP call today. So angry.
I'm so angry but not surprised. I didn't expect much tbh. My daughters last Vitamin results from 2022 were B12 290, Ferritin 24, folate 9.2 & Vit D 39. She been on thyroxine since a teenager now in her 40's. TSH levels fluctuating all over the place for past 6 years. Well the GP called today

I am now wondering what’s best to do if anyone has any advice please. Is it important I wait to see how b12 settles in and see what happens with folate result in 8 wks

Would an iodine supplement help?
I still don't feel well (very tired and the most dreadful brain fog which has stopped me driving) and wondered how I would know if an iodine supplement might help? Any thoughts would be most appreciated. Latest Medichecks results - stopped taking b12 liquid 2 weeks before test. Taking Spatone, VitaminD

Prescribed levothyroxine at last!
After a long struggle, you know how it goes... I have finally been offered a trial of levothyroxine by a GP. My Medichecks results in 2020 were ignored by my GP (serum TSH 6 range 0.7-4.2) plus presence of large amount of antibodies. NHS ones kept coming back 'normal'. A different GP agreed to

Charlatan or science?
hi folks, I am awaiting diagnosis of Grave’s disease and during the last 3 months since my blood tests via the NHS and the waiting game to see an endocrinologist, I have been researching hyperthyroidism. The internet is FULL of people claiming there is a link between micro biome and leaky gut and Graves
