Can't increase my iron levels
Hi all, I posted in February 2023 my low iron results and started taking 200 Ferrous Sulphate daily then. My iron results after 3 months were Ferritin 39 (20-204) Serum iron 18.6 (4.4-27.9) Feb 23 was: serum iron 11, ferritin was 29. So not a huge improvement. But now, a year on, even worse! Despite

Hello Not sure where to start. I had some blood tests done through Blue Horizon because of many symptoms I thought were hyperthyroidism. I had, two years ago, finally managed to get my weight just above 9 stone. Then over the course of a month went down to 8 stone 4. Drenching night sweats were awful

Prostate Cancer and Vitamin D (again)
A friend sent me links to two videos, one of which has been posted here before. It's by Dr John Campbell, whom Tall_Allen has described as a "quack" and a "nurse teacher" for reasons I don't understand. OK, I understand he trains nurses. The second video, link below, is rather long (apologies) but is

Dieticians???
I know most of you will have probably been involved with nhs weight management at some point so I wondered if this is the norm...I've had 3 zoom sessions in the last 18 months with a young guy who advised me to up my protein - which was low. Now at least 60g/day. He also said my calorie intake wasn't

Vitamin D deficiency
I've been found on my recent blood test to be Vit D deficient . My endocrinologist has prescribed me hidroferol 0.266mg caps to take one every 15 days. Since taking the first dose 12 days ago,my stomach has been very uncomfortable ever since,today it feels much better. I'm sure it is the medication

Medichecks results, please advise
Hi Everyone, posting my 1st ever private blood tests. Please can anyone comment, I'm quite new to this. The results came with a Dr's overview, so I'll be taking Vit D supplements but the other results appeared 'normal'. What do you think? And do the autoimmunity antibodies indicate Hashimoto's or am
