Blood re-test results - all opinions welcome. Increasing TSH.
I have been having various blood tests after not getting a regular cycle back after stopping the pill. I had bloods done in March and recently repeated. Main worry is my TSH has gone up. But still 'in range'. Should I be pushing for a full thyroid panel? Or maybe I should just do a postal test. In March

Low ferritin and high transferrin saturation
Hi all, sorry if this is a bit off topic but I know there are some experts in vitamins and minerals out there. I haven’t been diagnosed with a thyroid condition but, with the help of this lovely group, I discovered my thyroid is sluggish (TSH hovers between 2.5 & 3 and FT3 has been at the lower end of

Sorry I'm asking lots of questions at the moment - I'm pretty new to the Hashis thing and the intricacies of it overwhelm me at times! My GP recently referred me to a neurologist re. numbness and tingling in my hands and feet. It's mostly noticeable at night, when I'm horizontal, and it keeps me awake

Would love some input on my results please I started on Levo 5 weeks ago (50mg a day) after a slightly elevated TSH of 3.1 was detected by our IVF clinic, following a miscarriage. These are my latest results from Medichecks, I also had the standard TSH and FT4 done at my GP, which came back almost

Concerning advice re A&E
I have silent Brittle asthma that has been fairly stable for around 9 years but been extremely unstable since Dec last year. I have posted before and had some fab support, but this has been a weird and disconcerting shift ..... I finally got to see respiratory Consultant at my local hospital, but gutted

Low Iron - Are my symptoms normal?
From the end of November last year, until the first week of January this year I was experiencing a weird feeling of dizziness, and generally feeling ‘out of it’. I went to my doctor, and they diagnosed an inner ear infection as they weren’t 100% sure, which required no treatment. My symptoms disappeared

MCV increasing / folate levels
Just a quick question. When my daughter was first diagnosed with vit b deficiency her MCV was 92.5. She has been on every other day injections for a few months but it has risen to 94.8 - should it not have decreased ? Her ferritin was also low so is it just that low iron was masking the result to start

Epsom Salts?
Hello - I was wondering if you could help me! I suffer from IBS C (constipation). To cut a long story short, 4yrs ago I went to my GP as my constipation had gotten worse. He basically told me about this FODMAP diet, gave me some leaflets and some sites to look at. Initially he said follow it for 3months

Thyroid ultra vit check results - I would be so grateful of any help or advice
I am really hoping that someone can help me and advise me as I am very unwell more than I am well-ish. I do understand that sufferers of Hashimotos will never feel as well as they used to, but my life is so dominated by symptoms that make leading a normal life impossible. I have had an all too common

Hackney Half Event report.
It is the day after my HM. I usually write a report on how it went, this year is no different in some ways but in others ways there is a massive difference. It was my last HM for a couple of years. My physio and doctor have advised me to take a break from distances as my body needs to fully adjust

Why won't the NHS give me an iron infusion?
Had anybody managed to get an iron infusion on the NHS? My ferritin level is 6. The GP had requested an infusion from haematology. They have denied it saying that it is inherently dangerous and I just have to take tablets. Problem is, I've taken 200mg x 3 /day of ferrous sulphate previously for months
