Folate and B12
Both my Folate and Active B12 are only just over 40% through range. Can anyone recommend good, and hopefully not too expensive, supplements please.

Advice
Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but im looking for some advice please. I've been back and fourth to the doctors since around June 2022 with symptoms of overwhelming constant exhaustion that doesn't go away even after a full night's sleep, making it hard to start the day, weakness

Could Someone Explain The TTGIgA Test Please?
Hello! I have recently had some blood tests done due to low vitamin B12 and long term issues with iron deficiency. My GP did some tests to rule out Celiacs as a cause, and I just wondered if somebody could explain the Tissu Transglutaminase IgA test please - my result came back at 0.4 (range 0-6.9) I

Tardive dyskinesia. Been on the causative med quetiapine 400 mg for 20 years.Unable to get off it. Been creative. I am a registered nurse.
I am an inpatient acute mental health nurse actually - for the last 15 years. I also have Bipolar disorder on lithium. Very well controlled. But side effects of quetiapine were becoming impossible to live with. I tried aripiprazole and a reduction in quetiapine to a disastrous effect. I appeared severely

When is the best time to take T3
Hi I collected my first prescription for T3 Liothyronine 20 mg today. All the instructions on the box tell me is to take one tablet a day. I read the instructions inside and they just say to take exactly as instructed by doctor or pharmacist. So does it matter when the tablet is taken or if it is

What else to increase T3? Tried everything ...
Hello beautiful people, My latest TSH is 0.66 and had to lower thyroxine just a bit (from 100/88 to just 88) as was getting some hyper symptoms and felt way better with a lower dose, finally have energy and drive again! My T4 is healthy range, 60% through. However, my T3 dropped to just 10% of the range

Cortisol tests
Hi, I just had my cortisol retested to see if there had been any improvement from February 2023. Since August 2023, I have been slowly titrating NDT Armour and taking vitamins, minerals and amino acids prescribed by a private thyroid Dr. My iron & B12 are good, working on increasing vit D. I'm still

Hi can anyone tell me what this means. My THS came back as 14.80 but my free TT4 Is saying normal range 17.3. My B12 is fine 409 and so is my cholesterol. If my T4 is fine do I need to put my dose up? I am just starting to feel a bit better. They haven'haven'done my T3 yet

sourcing b12
I’ve been unable to get hold of my usual panpharma b12 for SI. What alternative do you use? Hoping to stay injecting hydroxocobalamin as my body hates change. Thanks, Cx

Metatrexate
I am now back on 15 mil of Metx injection with 20m Pred. followed by folic acid 2 days later.and all seems to be going well and not affecting my blood sugar levels so badly. My B12 was very low so also had a course of injections it seems to be a fine balance between blood pressure, blood sugar levels

Informing GP of sourcing own supplies
Hi, as some of you are aware I am in the process of writing to my GP and my MP. My GP does not know that I source my own supplies of B12. I was going to put this in my letter so that she, and my MP, can see the lengths people have to go to have any hope of recover. As B12 is not available over the counter

Results of blood test
Hi, after OH had high Tsh Levels a couple of weeks a go (radioactive iodine 14 tears a go) gp prescribed higher dose of thyroxine - now 175Results from medicheck above Low vit d - would this affect the thyroxine absorption? If he sorts that would it then be sensible to reduce the thyroxine back down

Inflammation and RLS
I have always believed that inflammation was part of my RLS. I believe this because my RLS responds well to ibuprofen. A recent blog was using this study http://www.smj.org.sg/sites/default/files/SMJ-57-514.pdf The study is from 2016. The study proposes to use the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio
