New NHS Endocrinologist tomorrow for ‘Second Opinion’. Help with bloods please!
Hello! I finally have my ‘Second Opinion’ NHS Endocrinology Consultant tomorrow after it was put back a few weeks. The first Endocrinologist (who I’ve been sent to a few times now) utterly disagrees with me taking T3, and has made her displeasure clear in person and in her letters to my GP. I am

Dexa scan and low vitamin D
A GP at the surgery is insisting on a dexa scan as my TSH has been suppressed since I trialled T3, and she’s adamant I’m to reduce my levo dose (see my last two posts if more information needed). My question is, I had dire vitamin D levels of 22 and deficiency for I suspect at least 7 years whilst carrying

PV - Folic Acid and Vit D
Hi Please excuse if this has been asked before, I’m sure it has but can’t find the post 😬 I have PV and had blood done at Dr recently and was told I needed to take folic acid and Vit D. I take HU which has recently been reduced by 1 tablet a week and last bloods were HCT 38, Hb 13.4, WBC 7.6

Blood result and raised MCV
Hi everyone. I had a recent blood test as I've been supplementing with gentle iron, general A-Z vits and B12 since the spring. I particularly wanted to check up on my iron/ferritin status. I've never had a positive diagnosis of PA, or even of B12 deficiency as my levels have always been 'in range'.

Elevated Vitamin A in serum with no supplements
Hi, And sorry, this may not be the right place to post this, but in a recent blood test my serum vitamin A level was registered at 99.5mcg/dL with the lab's reference levels between 30 and 80mcg/dL. I've had vitamin A tested only once before in April last year and it too was high at 99.3. Does anyone

Vitamin D Deficiency
4 years ago my husband was admitted urgently to A&E following a limb fracture and was subsequently diagnosed with decompensated cirrhosis. Thanks to the dedication of his hospital team he made a marvellous recovery and is now compensated and leading a normal life with no varices, ascites or other complications
