TSH levels lowered after iodine spike - advice on next steps needed
Hi everyone, I hope that you are all well. I have an update on my journey and just wanted some advice as I am still very new to this. My journey started a few months ago. I've tried to condense everything below. Just to state I have had various blood tests and they are all optimal (cholestral, Vitamin

For anyone who is on T3 only... When did you realise you needed it?
Hi everyone. I've been on a real journey since January with Hashimoto's. I started on levothyroxine and it made me feel a lot worse. I started seeing a private thyroid doctor who looked at my bloods and saw my T3 had dropped on levo, and with my symptoms she decided levo was not right for me and put

1 year post diagnosis
I am a 54 yo male living in Vegas, I found out I was Jak2 positive last year, looked at labs before doctor and freaked. I have been having slightly higher RBC and Platelets for around 6-7 years. I used to donate blood pretty regularly and took testosterone, so the doctors kinda ignored it. I was a paramedic

Active B12 gone down
Hello, I have been on loading doses (initially from my GP and now SI) for 7 weeks and am slowly improving. My initial active B12 was 48.1 ng/L, serum 162. I was on daily oral B12 supplements at the time so my results were skewed. I know that blood tests after injections are considered pointless but

Interesting update for those in the UK whose GP practice has Buprenorphine red listed
Finally, after months of hitting my head against a brick wall with my GP practice, where Buprenorphine is firmly red-listed (and the partners flatly refuse to change their stance, even after being presented with all the research we know about on this site), I have been able to obtain an NHS prescription

update and advice please
First of all I want to thank the administrators and everyone who contribute to this forum. I look at it several times a week and so continue to learn about our shared condition from all the contributions. I need to take a bit of a sounding about my next steps – I think I know what I want to do, but

Vimpat is working for severe RLS and PLMD
I’ve had almost complete resolution of my RLS on Vimpat (lacosamide) now at 150 mg at 10 am and 10 pm. This is a remarkable turnaround in my symptoms. I started on 50 twice a day and the effect started to wane with a tolerable amount of breakthrough RLS. I increased to 100 twice a day after several weeks

Iron Levels
this group is so helpful. Thank you to everyone, especially those experts. I’m currently weaning off pram with higher doses of gab. My PA in neurology is helpful with raising the gab as needed. However, I had my iron tests done with a 350 ferritin result and a 12% TSAT. So if I understand this

Iron Infusion Update
I had my 2 hour Iron infusion on Wednesday and Im not sure what I should be feeling because I don’t feel much different than before the fusion …. The Only bonus I have noticed is I can now brush my hair without stopping every 2 mins.

This week has been rough! Introducing...
My MS Adventure Buddy has a name now! Introducing Finley Ashowen! Or Fin for short. Pictured above at my iron infusion last week. I did better with the iron infusion than with my first one, which is to say I didn't look 'like death pulled through a keyhole' - not my description 🤣🤣😅 That is not
