Blood Results (Low FT4, Normal TSH) - Warrants GP Review?
Hi everyone, I’m new to this group, and hope it’s ok to post this here. Sorry, I tried to keep it brief, but it’s much longer than I planned!🙂 I’m a female in my mid 30’s and have long struggled with a range of symptoms (fatigue, poor quality sleep, digestive issues, headaches, depression/anxiety

My Story for private endocrinologist - what Qs to ask? 🤔
This is everything I have sent to the private endocrinologist about the last two years, with supporting evidence…. Dear Private Endocrinologist, I believe I have symptoms of hypothyroid or central hypothyroid or an issue with HPT axis however my blood tests are within the NHS ranges. In the two

advice please - not so optimal after all 😳
MMH test just in, I’ve been on Aristo 125mcg since mid December and 5mcg compounded T3 for 8 weeks. FT3 6.8 (3.1-6.8) FT4 27.7 (12-22) TSH <0.01 (0.27-4.2) I have worked hard on gut health so could well be absorbing better. I have very slowly lost 2 kg over 8 weeks but been super good about restricting

vitamins etc and thyroid function
hi guys, just trying to get my head around Vitamins etc. My son is 20 and has just had his TSH come in at 4.5 ( above range with medichecks)… I’m so reluctant to think he may need treatment for thyroid now as I feel sorry for him I guess and am trying to understand whether optimum levels of vits/iron

Currently 75mcg of tirsosint and 1 grain of Armour. Synthetics seperate meds do not work for me I had just came off of t4 and t3 separate meds after a year of feeling like I was going to die (no matter what adjustments etc). I do feel much better on this combo but still have all the hypo symptoms. GF

Has anyone ever had an Iron infusion?
Having suffered from underactive thyroid for years and taking Levothyroxine with mixed results, I also suffer from low iron and ferritin and Vitamin D. I find it hard to get my levels of iron up despite eating red meat and green veg and supplementing, and wondered if anyone had tried an iron infusion

Vitamin B complex before blood tests
I know that you should stop any b vitamin supplements for 3-7 days before a thyroid test due to the biotin but does this apply to other blood tests. GP wants me to do some blood tests next week for iron etc and wondering if I should stop the b complex before. TIA

My wife's FBC has changed significantly over the past few weeks, while her medication has been the same for a year. During the past year she has been on anagrelide 3 a day, hydroxy 3 a week keeping her platelets at or around 250 white cells at or around 40 though over the past 8 months her Hgb keeps

Zinc and Copper Deficiencies
Hello, All! Well it's always something - isn't it? Before I begin - a refresher - I have AMAG, PA; take B12 sublinguals daily along with 500mg folic acid daily, iron twice a week - low dose, vitamin D daily and thyroid med daily. Because of my inability to absorb B12 I thought maybe other nutrients

Six Months later - upcoming meeting with my MD (input needed)
[lab tests are from October 2022] So, it is 6 months later and things were going well on 0.075mg Synthroid (75 mcg) and 15 mcg Cytomel divided over 3 daily doses. I have been diligent with supplementing iron using a heme polypeptide every second day, alternating with zinc w/ copper and of course taking

Blood test follow up
Thank you all for your help. Results of discussion with doc - Parathyroid hormone: 10.93 (range 1.5-7.2), higher than range but lower than a year ago apparently (14+). This was a few months before my GCA diagnosis. Still waiting on results for B12, iron, folate. A year ago vit D levels and calcium
