CHRONIC INSOMNIA
My last test results from May 2024 below. I’m supplementing iron, folate, vitamin C, vitamin D, b12 injections, selenium, zinc, just started B complex (first time in years). I use melatonin & magnesium glycinate at the elusive bed time. I should be mid to optimal in vitamin levels. In June 2024 I increased

Over-medicated (Levothyroxine)?
Hello, I wondered if someone could help me? Apologies for posting lots of results below, but I thought it might help with context. I have just received my latest NHS results and I think I may be over-medicated still? Interestingly, I had a dose reduction 6 weeks ago and although my FT4 has reduced,

Tapering
Forgot to mention in my last post that results from the blood test for my Thyroid ie TSH and FT4 came back as abnormal meaning they were outside the reference range so have had to have my thyroxine medication increased, so decrease of prednisolone and Thyroid levels not being ideal could be reason I

Could anyone tell me the benefit of having both TT4 and Free T4 tested please…just looking at differences in tests and prices please?
Hi, I won’t repeat the question, just wondering if anyone could give me an idea on this please. Obviously a bit of difference between the pricing of the two tests I’m looking at and not sure how helpful that info could be? Im not on anything for thyroid, but tsh has been up and down in past so I keep

Thyroid issues
Hi. My TSH levels have been 0.02 for over a year, yet T3 and T4 have been in the normal range.I have chronic fatigue, reason I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism 20 years ago, and they have reduced my Levothyroxine to 75mg now. I am so concerned that this is going to cause my fatigue to get worse.

A rather disappointing paper. First, the full paper is, as so often, behind a paywall. Also, because the the paper doesn't come out with a clear "Yes, the tests are wonderful and reliable." It is quite clear that there is sufficient uncertainty to question all results from these tests. We have had

Hi all, Just starting our 2nd IVF attempt with a FET, with our only frozen embryo. We’ve been trying for 2 years, tests show I have a low AMH of around 4, and husband had varicocele causing low motility, count & shape. We had ICSI in spring this year which sadly didn’t implant, so really nervous about

Advice please on blood results especially possible iron issues.
I would be very grateful for any advice on my recent blood results please. I am concerned that for first time ever MCH and MCHC are just over range. My serum B 12 has historically been at top of range without supplementing. This has now dropped lower although still high in range. Never feel well although
