I’m in a bad way
I posted a week or so back that I was really ill with a virus. So I’m still really ill. Ended up at the GP as an emergency last Friday morning as I was in an acute anxiety attack, as well as still have diarrhoea and feeling so sick. My husband and youngest daughter came and I can’t tell you how appallingly

Of all the threads I've read so far, there are many people who appear to have similar stories – although, I've never been able to find out how their stories

Interference of anti-streptavidin antibodies in immunoassays: a very rare phenomenon or a more common finding?
The issue with biotin interfering with blood tests has been much discussed. Now a paper which suggests that interference by anti-streptavidin antibodies is more common than thought. Unfortunately, whereas with biotin we can do something (stop taking biotin for a few days before a test), with these

Cerebral angiogram
Having had an aortic valve replacement in January 2018. My bloods have been showing low potassium and high sodium. My GP decided to stop Indapamde. At that point my BP went extremely high resulting in a dramatic collapse in the street and bilateral sub arachnoid haemmorage. BP 248/118. Three CT scans

Update from miserable w Vegan
Hi everyone, I thank all of you for your good advice. I finally got a second opinion and a renal dietician, they allowed me to eat fish and chicken 2 to 3 times a week with limited portions. I found it extremely weird that I felt 10x worse after seeing my old doctor. I had non stop headaches, leg pain

Questions for anyone who suffered acid rebound effect after PPI use, and eventually was free from acid reflux?
For starters I were forced to also a
sodium
bicarbonate
"fizzle" type powder you mix with water, to be able to go on. I took it several times a day, plus before I went to bed.

Early Hypo/Hashi's Complicated By Adrenal/Low Cortisol
Greetings everyone: Finally got fed up with my family doctor who knows nothing and went two routes - endocrinologist (my doctor reluctantly gave a referral) and naturopath. Symptoms I have just about every symptom of hypothyroidism I have ever read and I am confirmed Hashi's by antibodies and ultrasound

Best bone supplements
I never know which supplements to take, or which are good. Can anyone recommend? Does anyone take this one? I have osteopenia age 45 through having my ovaries removed post cancer, and am very keen to stop any further bone loss. This forum is amazing, thanks so much for all the posts and advice. :) Rundown

Thyroid panel testing revealed low Bicarbonate
Had my bloods taken in August, GP has just asked to see me to review my T3/T4 meds. Can anyone advise why my serum bicarbonate was out of the bottom of the range? Is it linked with being hypothyroid, or possibly being on liothyronine? Also, can anyone tell me if these levels seem ok? Serum tsh - 0.08
