Over range T3 on combination T3/T4 medication
I posted several times last year about my 18 daughter who was very ill with chronic fatigue and severe bowel issues amongst other things. We discovered that her FT3 and FT4 were both very low and this was may have been the cause of many of her symptoms. In March last year her Medichecks tests came

What to expect from iron injections
I just started iron injections this week and will be having them once a week for six weeks. The nurse says the full effect of the iron takes place a month after the injections are finished. I was wondering when those of you who have received these injections got relief from RLS. I sure hope it doesn

No meds….yet
Hi New to this forum and RLS. Insomnia is crippling me and affecting everything from weight gain to cognitive abilities. I am desperately seeking sleep. GP has prescribed Quinine but little affect. Also on iron tablets, B12, Vit D, Magnesium. Next stop Ropinole. I’m scared to take this as there appears

Private/NHS Haematologist Referral to Access NHS Iron Infusion
Hi Guys Background is that for B12 to work its magic there must be sufficient iron in the body - even being slightly low in iron circa 18% deficient for example, can apparently hinder the healing effects of B12. Now, needless to say that for most GPs this is complete rocket science and mind blowing

GERD (acid reflux) and Hypothyroidism
Hi, 28 years ago, i was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, following a very bad sore throat (I still remember the pain in my throat!). Benign nodules that have now disappeared. On Levothyroxine 75 since then. 2 weeks ago, I had a routine blood test showing that my TSH is 5.36 (normal range is 0.27 to 4.2

Latest Iron Panel Results - advice

Test results - I think I might have iron deficiency to add into the mix........
Hi everyone, I've updated my story and where I am. Still struggling to move forward with severe fatigue episodes. Was put on low dose steroids for suspected adrenal insufficiency a couple of months back. I thought at first they were helping, now I am not so sure. Am struggling really to know whether

Iron Deficiency
Are many people diagnosed with PV Iron deficient at the time of diagnosis? I’ve read on the internet that almost everyone with PV is iron deficient at time of diagnosis (hence the low ferritin) and that phlebotomy makes the iron deficiency worse. My heam told me I was iron deficient before even starting

Is there any point me testing FT3 levels 4 hours after dosing,ie peak T3 to satisfy neg Endo that im not overdosing?
Hi Everyone, Ie if 4 hrs in and my T3 is below 6.8 NHS range ,then I am not overmedicated am I ? Its true I havnt found my sweet spot, and my TSH is just below NHS range. at 0.08. But my T4 is 15.3 and T3 5.8 ,both in NHS range , so how can that be overmedicated if these two are 'in the accepted range

Antihistamine and probiotics
