Higher pulse than average
I’m quite fit but am feeling as though I’ve run a marathon - heart rate up and air hungry . I have UAT and take Armour Thyroid. I’ve reduced the dose from 1 grain am and pm to 1 am and 1/2 pm but it hasn’t made any difference. This has been happening for about two weeks now. I also take HRT, vitamin

Trying to stay positive when I dont "get" it
This pelvic floor tightness came out of nowhere several weeks ago. I never ever knew this existed. Now Im in on baclofen/valium suppositories, HRT therapy 3x a week. I go for hrs where I have no pain and then the spasms and throbbing begins. Is there anyone else going thru a similar situation? Im scared

Your thyroid and iron deficiency stories, please
My ferritin is now 7. (Safe levels being 13 and above). Haemoglobin is 114 (Safe levels used to be 120 and above but now all of a sudden are 115. Surely just a coincidence that it’s women who experience lower iron levels, as a rule. Surely). MCHC, transferrin, serum iron etc all out of whack, too

Decided not to have hip replacement
Hi everyone. Have any of you decided not to go for a hip replacement. After pre-op assessment I have decided I just do not want to take the risk. Were you able to get another consultation to discuss alternatives. If I do not have surgery or injections who will manage my pain. I do not want to be

Cirrhosis diagnosis
I have recently been diagnosed with cirrhosis following abnormal blood test and fibroscan. I am a non drinker, with a BMI 22.3. The specialist says I am one of the 5-7% of people with a fatty liver but not over weight and probably hereditary. This has come as a shock. I only had a blood test because

Buying my own T3
Hello all, I've been on Levothyroxine for a long time but since a hysterectomy and menopause I've needed to increase the dose but still feel like I'm struggling. I'm on HRT and working hard to balance ALL hormones, I currently get my Progesterone from abroad because mybuseleas GP doesn't believe I need

Pet scan was clear for vasculitis
Pet scan did not show vasculitis but have to have a MRA of aorta but dr not too concerned I think. No panic for this scan which is next week. Also mri of brain due to heaviness. Could be connected to old ear problems but feels we should check. Also on letter blood test results Fe 4, ferritin 62,

Worried about NASH / anxiety
Hi everyone, Little bit about me - 34 yo, celiac disease, SIBO, 26 BMI (athletic build, work out 4x a week), had an abnormal LFT back in 2021 (95 ALT), so my primary care doc sent me to get an ultrasound. This showed "moderate fatty liver" based on echogenicity. I was referred to hepatologist, they

Perimenopausal Rosecea
Hi everyone, I was looking for some advice....I have recently been diagnosed as perimenopausal and have been put on HRT patches. They don't agree with me so I am shortly changing to HRT tablets. However, the last 2 months at a particular time in the month, I have had bad flare up of rosecea. The doctors

Low cortisol: will it improve when I'm on HRT?
I think I just keep asking the same question but in various different ways. 😂 I work term time only and every half term I'm full of optimism about what me and the kids can do and how much I'll get done in the house and inevitably I spend all week on the sofa. It's the same every time. I recognise
