B12 and Ferritin results
Just had blood tests and results for B12 are 201 (110-900) and ferritin 59 (30-337). Am I right in thinking these should be higher?

Confused about latest blood tests - why are FT4 and FT3 rising, but I still feel awful and I'm undiagnosed and not on any meds?
Sorry for the super long post.... I would very much appreciate the help of you wonderful people on this forum. I am a bit confused with my latest blood test results that I just received yesterday, and am hoping that you will be able to help me understand what's going on. I'll try to keep it brief, while

Iron blood test - definitive list
I got my recent blood test back, haven’t yet posted all results to my profile, but my ferritin was rock bottom (7 out of 7-271 range) so I’m going to get a full iron test before I share all the numbers here and decide my next med change. What should I ask for: Iron Total iron-binding capacity (TIBC

Been told "no longer need injections"
So I had my latest b12 injection yesterday. I just received a text from the doctor saying that "I no longer need B12 injections and can have oral supplements from October". I don't understand this as initially when I was first diagnosed I was given oral supplements to try for 2 months initially. My serum

What number/s are considered low for HbsAg
Hi, I'm contemplating going for Bepiroversin jabs, to reduce my HbsAg levels, which currently stands at 1012 iu/mL, with treatment (from a starting level of 3k+ 12 years ago). I understand Bepiroversin treatment especially works on people with a low HbsAg level. What number/s is considered a low?

Watching House
I am off on a long weekend (tomorrow I go back to work), and watching House on Netflix. Funny how they focus on positive ANA for lupus on this. Of course it is never lupus, but the irony is, when you don’t tests positive on ANA - it can’t be lupus. BUT, if people test positive for ANA, you are told

Can You Refuse Certain Blood Tests
I had a consult with a Livi doctor last week for non thyroid related issue, he wanted me to have a load of bloods done. I've checked online and see what he's ordered. It includes B12, which is pointless as I'm on jabs and have been for years, so B12 always very high. ( the lab always moan and point this

Start from scratch
Great advice here! So I concentrated on my daughter’s health now to me. After flu I’ve gone to my gp to request the T3 as well as full blood count etc but they have refused the T3 So I placed an order for my private tests as recommended here and will keep you updated as to my progress

Is it normal?
I know I am probably repeating myself but my anxiety is so bad and frightening now I need some comfort and reassurance please. I am so isolated and very alone with all this Is it normal to have palpitations about an hour after taking any dose of T3? I have noticed it a few times but just put it down

Hypo on Aristo
I have been taking 62.5 mcg mercury pharma plus 15T3 for a couple of years Every time I try and increase the Thyroxine I get itchy eyes and a runny nose ( with stomach pain) so eventually I got a prescription for Aristo.. but since being on it I am so hypothyroid, I’m struggling to walk and spend most

What deficiencies could B12 injection cause?
Some of you might remember me writing about how, since moving to Pascoe vials from Dr Myhill's multi use vial, I've been experiencing whole of body mini vibrations / electricity / agitation. It's particularly bad in the night and I wake with it. I had worked out that it's tolerable by reducing injection

Should I be asking for an increase in Levo?
I have an appt with my endo on Thursday to discuss my latest results and those from last August and April when I was taking different amounts of levo. I always follow the suggested procedure of stopping Vit B complex a week before, early blood test and not taking levo for 24 hours. My most recent

ft3 and t3 the same thing?
hi is Ft3 the same thing as T3? I think here in Scotland we only measure Tsh and t4, t3 (I think) at a push if requested but hard to get at GP. In England is it Ft3 I’ve seen on posts. That’s why I’m asking if they’re the same measurement. I’d like to know how well I’m converting and if not if I can
