Looking for a doctor / functional medicine
Hi everyone, I am on 4 grains NDT and 20 mcg T3 per day. My FT4 is just beneath normal range, FT3 upper third of range and suppressed TSH. My endo is supportive but says he has never seen anyone on so much thyroid replacement! I am wondering why I need so much (and have a few symptoms I would like

Bone profile?
Hi, could anyone tell me what the doctor means by bone profile? Recently had tests for B12 deficiency, got a telephone call a few days later asking me to come back in for them to do more tests. Said my bone profile was low, and mentioned something about potentially low vitamin d. Apparently my b12 is

Newly diagnosed with PBC
Hi there! I just got my official diagnosis today and was started on Ursodiol. I have been feeling fatigued for about 13 years and no one could find a reason. In the last 3 years, my liver enzymes went up and I started getting even weirder symptoms. Neurological impairments, heart pain, muscle pain.

cirrhosis and statins
I’ve not asked for help on here before and would really appreciate any advice. I have alcoholic cirrhosis and am being recommended statins for cholesterol by my practice nurse. I’m a 57 year old UK male. The information sheet from the nurse session warns not to take statins if you have cirrhosis. I’m

Alendronic Acid
I’ve been diagnosed with Osteopenia. About 7 months ago I was given vitamin d and calcium tablets which I am fine with. I was also given Alendronic acid which makes me feel very lethargic for a couple of days after taking. Has anyone else experienced this. I’m virtually at the point of deciding not to

Vital Role of B12 and Folate
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0193953X12001001?via%3Dihub This article focuses on the role of b12 and folate in the synthesis of methionine and one of the side effects of improper synthesis is depression and cognitive impairment. However, I want to emphasise that poor synthesis

Evaluation of My latest 30 Day Trial
I was working with the concept of injecting as needed no less than 3 hours apart, up to 5 times a day and using more than one form at a time. I was injecting Hydroxocobalamin, Methylcobalamin with Adenosylcobalamin SC each time I injected. I thought I was injecting 1 mg of Hydroxocobalamin, 1 mg

Good news - alendronic acid
Hi, I thought I would share some good news. Three years ago I was diagnosed with osteoporosis and started on alendronic acid with dome reluctance.

Pink Blush after SI
Hi Guys Does anyone know the reason for the pink blush on the skin a few days after an injection? I know it’s from the B12 but does this suggest the B12 is injected too near the surface? It’s not a problem on my tum as bikini days are long gone but in the thigh it’s more obvious if I were to

Help with results - what would you do?
Hello I finally got a private endo to agree to up my meds from 75mcg levothyroxine to 100 or112.5 if I felt it necessary in July 2023 allowing my TSH to fall below range, and that I understood and was willing to take the risks. My 3 pm slump was dangerous as I was fighting to stay awake on the way

pain?
Anybody else have pain on waking, from hips and legs up to arms & shoulders--not explained by exercise or lack thereof? Can barely hobble about the house to get my meds and feed the cat. Sometimes it helps to tighten all the muscles to form an upright posture--but as soon as I loosen them to move, it

Hi Everyone I was diagnosed with myxoedema hypothyroidism in 1989 and have taken 150 mcg Levo ever since. I am also coeliac. My new GP has recently queried my TSH and says I have been over medicated for a long time - since 2014 my TSH has been around 0.05 and my T4 in the upper range around 18. My

'Interim' GP blood results and trying to draw conclusions
Hello, A GP I saw recently (long story but not same one who gave me increase in Levo) ordered bloods. I have been on 100 mcg of Accord for 4 weeks, so wasn't planning to test for another month. The following were tested, I've included the same NHS results for comparison earlier this year.: NHS
