Urine test

Hello everyone i hope you can help me out i was taking Accord Levothyroxine for a few months but i was taken off them because i couldn’t cope with the side effects. I have no idea about the levels to be honest i don’t understand what T4 and all the other numbers mean 🤣 I had a blood test and i was put

Hi, I recently posted on here and was recommended to get my full thyroid panel done, which I have just done via Medichecks. Test was done at 8am, last dose of Levo 24 hrs before etc.. I have an NHS endo appointment on 24th June. My GP has refused to increase my Levo to date as results are in range. Not

Hi, new on here & just wandered what blood tests my doctor should do? Can I request them...I've had a fbc done, but that didn't include folate, ferritin, iron or vitamin D. These are the results below....is it possible can anyone see from these if I should be taking any supplements? My vitamin B12 level

I’m to have a synacthen test next week. I am taking 5 mg of prednisolone daily and have been told to stop the pred 3days before the test. Will this be ok. As have been told never to stop steroids suddenly ?

While not a lot of specific focus on PCa (Like at the GU ASCO Meeting earlier this year), this full-access section from their Educational Book released at this week's ASCO Annual Meeting in Chicago may be of interest to those here who want to understand the oncology community's current view on precision

As the title says. I had the Lola Female Hormone blood test done earlier this week and results came back today. Test was done at 10am (and I was told to fast so that's what I did). Does it look like my cortisol level is low? Or am I overthinking it? (Yes I am totally ignoring the 'normal' sign on the

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me please. I got tests done to check my iron as I am going to have an iron infusion next week. They also checked my thyroid and the results are a bit high. (See pic) For context, i have Hashimotos and am Hypothyroid. I am on 175mcg daily of Levothyroxine and 5mcg daily

I will be seeing my endo in 10 days and have arranged blood tests beforehand,I live in South Wales and was wondering if anyone in my area has been prescribed T3 please a simple yes or no Private or NHS will suffice you can message me if you would rather many thanks

Hi. Need help with my latest results please. Thank you. Not on thyroid meds. Was on 25mg Levothyroxine, but was taken off them because GP only tested TSH and thought it was okay. I had stopped them for 5 weeks at least before taking this test. I supplement Heme Iron. What baffles me, as a side note,

Are you male? Are you a mouse? Do you carry the Thr92Ala-DIO2 allele? Can you wait for the publication of this paper? Can you wait for the human version of this trial? And do you consider it necessary to wait for the eventual publication of the human trial before considering T3? It is undoubtedly

I’m taking 6.25mcg of T3 for a week now I just wondered if this will build up in your system similar to T4? I know T4 is the storage hormone so that builds up slowly. I didn’t know whether the 6mcg will build up aswell as I was thinking of adding a little more but I don’t want to add more if it’s still

I've read over a period of time that T3 has half-life of anywhere from 2-2.5 days. I have, always, assumed (bad thing!) that was for synthetic T3. Anyone know, if that time-frame is applicable to dessicated T3? My FT3 shot up from 2.7 in late Feb. to 3.85 2 weeks ago. I had increased dose from97.5

After seeing my Endo last week, my T3 was kept the same (5mcg twice a day) and my t4 was put back up to 75. Usually it takes weeks before any difference shows doesn’t it? It wouldn’t be any difference in this case? The day after I started back on the higher dose I felt exhausted, insomnia and poor sleep

Dad’s routine urine report showed “ trace protein “. He has never had this show up earlier ? What has been added in the last couple of months is 1)Whey protein shake - appx 40 gms a day. ( he is 70 kg ) 2) Metformin 1750 mg a day 3) Xtandi - 120 mg a day 4 ) Orgovyx - 120 mg a day

I’m on a journey with t3 so far taking has not affected serum t3 levels and I have read that reverse t3 can block active t3. Has anyone here tested for this and did you find it useful? I understand it is a somewhat controversial test in the medical world Thanks!

I wonder if anyone could help me I need to buy a top up of t4 without a prescription if someone could be as helpful as to give me an email address thankyou

Is it normal for a thyroid blood test to leave T3 & nmol/L. blank?

Hi Community. Would anyone have any thoughts: since I have had my Thyroid removed 1 year ago and am taking Levothyroxine, it seems my blood pressure is creeping up. Would this be an indicator of incorrect dosages, or type of hormone replacement. Getting to see an endocrinologist is difficult since I
