Trial of eConsult service
My GP practice has recently launched the eConsult service where it said I could get the results of tests etc, so I tried it. I asked for the results from a recent blood test, and gave the date and time. The one that was supposed to be just vitamins. I had one email back saying the request would be

Multivitamins
I mainly use Healthspan for vitamins. Although use Ethical Nutrition for Magnesium Taurate.Their multivitamins sound a good fit for me as would save having to take vit D3 separately BUT I'm on apixaban and the daily dose contains 50 mg turmeric. Rooting about on line I understand curcumin is a small

Difficulty tolerating iron
Hello, my ferritin level has dropped over the last two years when I discontinued my iron supplement. I think it's around 17. I do have symptoms, hair thinning, mood issues, trouble sleeping, weight gain, low thyroid. It's very strange as I don't tolerate it well anymore, I've tried several different

Shall I raise my Levo
I’ve been on 115mcg of T4 now for around 3 months. For one month I did the carnivore/keto diet with a little T3 but it was so hard to stick to. I’ve been eating normally again with no T3 now for about 2-3 weeks. My levels are still quite low so I’m thinking of going up to 125mcg per day does this sound

Returning to work with exhaustion
Hey lovelies 💛 I hope you are all doing well. I had my Laparoscopy 4 weeks ago now (9th April) I was in theatre for around 3 hours and they removed a fair bit of endo. I've felt really good since, only a little bit of pain & managing to do normal things - cooking, cleaning etc. However I have had

Mixing pills (prescription and over-the-counter)
A frequent query is about the effect of pills and how one might interact with another. The usual advice is to read the leaflet and check with one's pharmacist or GP. On occasion I've suggested that Googling and consulting
authoritative
websites should also be considered, as I wonder to what extent

Newbie here but need help
Hi all, I am new here but could really use some help. For months now I’ve been having a lot of symptoms, tired, achy bones and muscles, hair loss, terrible headaches and migraines every day. The list goes on. I finally went to the GP which ordered bloods. A long list of different bloods. One of which

hypothyroidism and peripheral neuropathy
I am hoping that getting my dosage right and my T4 and T3 levels up towards the top of the range along with Methyl
B
Complex and
Vitamin
D supplementation may alleviate the neuropathy. The spinal stenosis of course will remain.

I have now read that some people do but if you take
vitamin
B
that may affect the sinemet. My other query is - Loss of taste. She is frequently saying she wouldnt know what she was eating and that food has no taste except citrus' foods/drinks and highly spiced foods.

Poor GP response for years!
Hello. First time poster here Long story short I have been taking Levothyroxine for around 8 years and within this time I have had a constant battle with my GP to manage my symptoms. Unfortunately I have found that it does depend on which GP you get as to whether they will increase Levothyroxine.

Nature provides B12 drops
I received these drops today (recommended by this helpful forum), which are high strength 3000 mcgs. The instructions state 12 drops per day to give you the correct dose of 3000 mcgs. Could I make sure that these are not too high for a first purchase of B12 vitamins as others seem lower in strength

Iodine in pregnancy supplement
Hi All I am trying for a baby and I have been told to take folic acid amongst a few other vitamins. I have found a pregnancy vitamin supplement however it has 150mcg of Iodine in it. I understand Iodine is not good for those with hypothyroidism and we do not need it BUT my future baby will rely on
