Any Advice/ Experience with a Colonoscopy?
My GP has put me on the 2 week fast track for a colonoscopy, so I had to Uber myself to the hospital for a blood test to check on my kidney function because of the dye they use.

Renal function test
Have just been reading some posts and read that if on apixaban that you should have regular tests. So, what is this test? I don't think I've ever had one. I was diagnosed in August 2017. Since then hardly seen anyone about this and certainly don't recall anything like this. I'm feeling let down by

Going round in Circles!
My last TSH was 23.5. Cholesterol 7.8. Finally got referred to an endocrinologist who wasn't a bit concerned at the results but said it could be supplements I was taking interfering with readings. He asked if I was talking statins for cholesterol but I said I was waiting for my thyroid to settle as that

"New" non-statin lipid lowering drug?
In Australia, we don't get much TV advertising for drugs (unlike the US where it is rampant!) - but advertising for a drug called RAYDEL ( Policosanol ) has started. I note that the Company uses the word "may" when promoting it's product (this should always be read as "may - or may not" . This study

TIROSINT or similar T4 with less fillers ...bad reaction
I was recently switched to Euthyrox (Levo) and Tiromel (cytomel T3) from NDT ...and my face is breaking out, my joints are hurting and my period hasn't stopped and its day 13. I switched from NDT (none of these symptoms) to synthetic as the NDT was increasing my antibodies. Are there other T4 meds

How did humans get to the top of the pile?
Thank you everyone who commented on my post around why people chose a low-carb high fat diet, and did they do so after a high-carb low-fat diet. Personally I could debate on just that thread for the next 10 years, and perhaps I will! However it occurs to me a hypothesis following on from that question
