Should I ask to go up on my levothyroxine dosage?
Hi everyone! As suggested, I followed everyone's advice regarding the blood test, and also I've been taking the levothyroxine earlier (leaving more of a gap before eating or taking other medications) for a month, and my latest results are: Serum free T4 level 12.0 pmol/L [7.9 - 14.4] Normal 05 Apr

not sleeping re RLS
I have had mild RLS for many years triggered by tiredness. Now it has got much worse, keeping me awake at night. I dont want to start on pharmaceutical's if possible and try to avoid doctors as much as I can. My last blood showed that my ferretin was low in range and vit D was fine ( I supplement). I

First Private Blood Test
This is my first post to this excellent website, and I hope someone can help me understand my first private blood test - fasting, last levothyroxine 26 hours previously. No B12 supplement for three weeks prior to the test. I did find it difficult to get sufficient blood, this being my second attempt

Vitamin D levels
Hi guys, have a blood test at my GP tomorrow morning after I sent a message about getting my Vit D, Folate, Ferritin, B12 etc tested Is it the case now that if deficient, GPs won't treat? My levels a couple of years ago were 16 so very deficient Just worried if it comes back that low again, that GP

Vitamin D loading dose issue
Hi all, I was prescribed 50,000 iu Vitamin D3 (SunVit brand) to take weekly for 6 weeks. I took my first dose on Tuesday last week, since then I’ve been experiencing quite severe tension headaches, dizzy spells, tummy issues and anxiety. The headaches were unbearable and from the moment I woke up

Another meds review (statins)
Just had another meds review with the GP Clinician/Pharmacist. He is pretty certain I am showing signs of statin intolerance. I stopped Rosuvastatin last week owing to awful leg pains which hsve subsided since stopping. He did explain that for someone with history of HA that statins were important but

Strange Results
Hi, I was diagnosed with PA in 2013/14 and was given injections for a while but that stopped a good few years ago. I had tests done via Endo a while back and they said my levels were fine despite no injections/supplements. I had tests done in May 2023 and the active b12 came back as high. It showed

Help Interpreting Results
Hi. Can I have advice on results? These are from a while back for anyone who has read my recent posts. I was on 1 tablet of T3 a day at this point. I previously had high thyroid antibodies but the LDN I take seems to have lowered them to be in range. I was wondering if the same has happened with pernicious

Pre-CRPC Supplements/Drugs - Potential Risks vs Rewards?
With some substances there could be a "tipping" point depending on the substance, the dosage and the patient's stage of cancer where the substance may have a higher chance of having a negative effect instead of positive. It usually relates to ROS levels. Adequate levels of ROS are important for cancer
