Feeling helpless
Hi all. I've had IBS since I was 16, I'm now 42 and the past year has been the worse. I feel like I've tried everything and I just don't know where to turn anymore. I have IBS-C and although I have a bowel movement every day I still get terrible upper cramps. I've had all the tests and gastroenterologist

The Magnitude Trial (and me, with scatological references)
This is a phase 3, large number international trial of the combination of abiraterone (abi + prednisone) with a newer PARP inhibitor (PARP-I), Niraparib (nira). It is run by Janssen/Johnson & Johnson who hold the patent for abi. They are no doubt hoping to extend the patent and make a combined abi/nira

Ferritin of 56
I was taking iron tablets for anaemia for a few months, and when I was re-tested recently my ferritin was 56. The GP advised me that I was no longer anaemic and to stop the iron. I am extremely tired and I have diffuse hair loss. I have started taking a maintenance dose of ferrous sulphate again and

Beaten :(
I just attempted W9R1 but didn't complete it. I had a niggle in one hip and pulling in the opposite calf, so I walked after 25 mins. Not sure if that was the sensible option to avoid injury, or telling myself that as a justification for stopping... Just want to keep myself accountable to you lovely folk

Adeyababa with ET
Hello friends, I am from Ethiopia and I take Asprin daily and ferrous sulfate daily. My platelet number was 987, 000 last month when I tested. I was covid positive in February and tested negative after 14 days of quarantine time. I am worried to decide to take my first AZ vaccine. I feel always fatigued

Severely weak. Can I try heme iron peptides?
Could my trembling/vibrations/debility be caused by iron deficiency as ferritin was 17 (saturation n iron stores also on lower side). I also feel cold. After taking iron, I feel almost normal for sometime n the trembling lessens too, then again feel weak by evening. if I don't take the iron in evening

Blood Test Results from GP, very ill and no diagnosis
Hello, Sorry I know some of these bloods will be irrelevant to the thyroid forum but posting just in case someone who knows better than me spots something. Background- I’ve been ill since 14, originally diagnosed with ME/CFS. Only thing that routinely showed up in tests was extremely low blood pressure

Magnesium and thyroid issues
Has anyone tried increasing their magnesium intake to help their body to heal? This would help readjust the balance in the body between calcium and magnesium as they work as antagonists (work in balance with each other). Magnesium is used in hundreds of processes in the body so if we don't have enough

Are these symptoms typical 2 weeks post op?
I had my hysterectomy 2 1/2 weeks ago. I have had my uterus, cervix and fallopian tubes removed. I lost 1/2 litre of blood during surgery so I have been given ferrous sulfate to take for a month. Blood pressure is at the lower end of ok. But still, it's ok :) I have two questions... I am feeling dizzy

Symptoms, but within range.
Really struggling. Can anyone advise on what to do next please? I had a thyroid test on monitor my health in October 2020 which said there was an anomaly. The results were: TSH. Just above 2.5 range 0.3 - 4.4 Thyroxine 10 range 12 - 22 Triiodothyronine just inside the normal range (no numbers are given

Waters breaking at 30 weeks (PPROM) - twins
Never out of the woods with this "journey"! Ugh, can't sit back and relax for one moment and think it's all safe. On Wednesday my waters broke. Quite a bit earlier than expected! Called the maternity assessment centre who checked me over and confirmed my waters had broke and my cervix was open 1cm, and

Update on Ferrous Bisglycinate
A quick update on Ferrous Bisglycinate. Prior to this, I have only had success with Liquid Ferrous Sulfate. After trying all the other over counter medications, the doctor prescribed the Liquid. I got an immediate boost to my levels. A prescription is not necessary, but within 4 months I could

T3 or not T3
Hi Below are my recent results. I’m on 100mg thyroxine. My T3 is low but it’s higher since I stopped taking the T3... as when I was on it I felt no difference, but I was only on 75mg thyroxine then. I really would like to feel the benefits of T3 that u all describe but I just can’t find the right balance
