CT Scan Results
Hi ladies, I have my coffee and read every morning all questions but barely ask questions. Today I have a question, I’m in Canada and get my basic 15 minutes with my oncologist. When I leave I ask for a copy of CT scan results. This time when I read it, all it mentioned was previous evidence of mastectomy

Help understanding coeliac test results
Recent results of testing for coeliac. Doctor says 'no further action'. Tissue transglutaminase IgA level 0.3 U/mL [0.0 - 10.9] Immunoglobulin A level 2.06 g/L [0.8 - 4.0]
Should I be concerned that the first result is very low in the range?
My ferritin and iron were tested at

Hi, KIATEAL here. Just learned of local recurrence. Pet and bone scan to follow. Not sure whether I’m in the right forum. Followed a link while checking out Letrozole. No chemo/radiation etc so far. Surgery and Care Oncology Protocol only. Now 1 1/2 year later local recurrence after mastectomy. Waiting

Levothyroxine breast cancer
My mum has just been diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. I was just looking into levothyroxine and risk of long term use and breast cancer in woman was one of them. I’m now worried about the risk of cancer. Although I’ve had a double mastectomy because I’m trans I still have some breast tissue remaining

Please help me form a plan of action based on my blood results!
Just got my bloods back and would appreciate any advice what all these could mean and/or how I can myself get well(er) as I am not at all convinced this knowledge will ever come from my clueless but kind GP and NHS Endo. By way of background, thyroid disease runs in my family, and I have had years

How are my bloods, please?
Hello Have been on T3 for the last few weeks. Half a tablet a day. Plus 150 mcg levothyroxine, which was my usual levo dose before the endo added in T3. And here are my results: Ferritin - 10 (13-150) [LOW] My GP says, on this result, “just out of normal range”. TSH - 0.61 (0.27-4.2) Before

start levothyroxine or work on vitamin levels?
Went to the doctor in September 2022 with symptoms of hair loss, fatigue and feeling cold. ( am a 36 year old female) Bloods were done and was told everything was OK. The hair loss was most concerning so I spoke with another doctor who reviewed my bloods who said thyroid levels were on the high side
