Low Serum Folate
Male with Hypothyroidism and have been on 100mcg of Levothyroxine for 6 years. In April, I had some infection (unknown) and was not good for 3 months. Felt like long Covid. My HbA1c jumped to 44 and I was told I was prediabetic. Cut carbs and lactose. I don't drink or smoke anyway. Walked every day and

Supplimenting Vit B12 and Folate - how much?
Hello,My recent blood test shows: Ferritin 107ug/l (30-250) B12 377ng/l (200-900) Folate 4.7ug/l (3-20.50) (they forgot to test for Thyroid, so I have got to book in again for that...) I have checked previous messages and think that my Folate is low and B12 could be improved. There are supplements

cholesterol Results
Hello, I have recently had a routine blood check from my GP as a result of suffering with fatigue. Turns out I have glandular fever and low folate. I was told by the receptionist that I also have “high Cholesterol” and despite being given a copy of my results, they don’t really mean anything to me

Blood Test Results.
Some of you will remember it took me a month to get blood test results because in the first instance the Doc who arranged them wanted to give me the results. Made about 3 appointments which were cancelled because he changed his working days or whatever so eventually decided that just to get the results

Private Blood Test Results
Hello, Diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 2019, it was a long and sickly road to diagnosis and treatment. Levothyroxine only didn’t work for me and after a couple of not so great endo appointments I finally found a really good endocrinologist who agreed to add in liothyronine and commenced me on 20mcg

Help with next appointment following loading doses
Following a B12 of 194ng/L (187 - 883) in August, in Sept it was 208. MMA and Folate both “normal” but Homocysteine was slightly above range so I have been given 6 loading doses and daily Folic Acid. (I don’t have the actual results other than the B12). I didn’t have any really noticeable response

Am I going the wrong way? ⬇️
Morning lovely people, my GP lowered my Thyroxin to 75mg from 100mg a month ago in order to get my TSH levels up, which have barely moved in ten years and were at 0.01 for ages and ages. This happened after I was prescribed T3 by a specialist just over ten years ago who has now even struck off. I can

The results are in, over to the judges.
I am a 59 year old, 74Kg male, with no other comorbidities except mild lifelong well controlled Asthma. The tests on 10/01/2024 where all taken using the guidance given here, of no levy for 24 hours prior and no food/drink ETC before the test. The previous tests may not have been in full compliance

Exercise and Low Thyroid: Am I doing more harm than good? Advice, please!
I would like to ask about having low thyroid levels and doing exercise. I have hypo symptoms, and blood tests show low FT3 and FT4, but normal TSH (for reference, last blood test results are below). So far, no doctor or endocrinologist thinks I have any thyroid issue. One of my symptoms has been unexplained

Suppression of TSH but low T4/T3 levels whilst taking Levo/Lio Combo
A few years ago, my thyroid results were looking a lot better but NHS GP over the last 2 years has told me to reduce my dosage twice (because of the 'risks' of overtreatment). I'm now on 100mcg levothyroxine (75mcg supplied by GP and topped up by myself) and 25mcg liothyronine (self-sourced). I now don't

Test Results interpretation
HNY everyone! I got my test results back from the GP today. She did a full MOT (although didn’t include vit d or ferritin) but I’m not sure what they mean or if they are optimal. My vit b12 is 502 (197-771) Serum folate is 8th/L (3.0-26.8) My thyroid results are meaningless as I had taken my meds

Referred to private Endo - London; advice and recommendations please
Hi all, I have just been referred by the GP to an Endo. I was hoping that someone could privately DM me with recommendations for private endos in central London. I am also wondering whether I could be suffering from Hashimotos hyperthyroid flare ups: To recap; I have hashimotos, and had a hemithyroidectomy
