Can anyone help with iron panel interpretation please
This is a friend’s recent iron panel Posted a couple of days ago but hoping for a better response this time I’ve looked on rT3 adrenals where it says a low transferrin level indicates a lack of capacity for supplemental iron. I really don’t understand this when it’s clear her whole panel is low,

T3 (Cytomel): How would you fit it in these results? Or would you? And all the mistakes I have made on this journey
Latest results (overjoyed to be finally here) - TSH .74 (.32 to 4) T4 14 (9 to 19) T3 4.2 (2.6 to 5.8) I am on 262.5 mcg levothyroxine (Note: In 50s so 50×5 & 1/4 of a 50) I feel what I would deem pleasantly okay. Always have felt the best on NDT, but I needed so much I could no longer afford it. And

Multi vitamins minus calcium and vitamin D
Saw Rheumy nurse yesterday. Still waiting to start Etanercept jab. But she said I should get multivitamins but minus vitamin D and Calcium as I'm already on calcichew D3 twice a day. Looked on line but cannot find any without these. Has anyone multi vitamins without calcium and vitamin D3?

Post SCT update
I'm now +58 days and 3 weeks out of hospital. So far (touch wood, fingers crossed) I'm not showing any signs of GVHD or other abnormal symptoms but I know this can all still happen as my recovery progresses. Consultant has reduced the Mycophenolate (in place of Cyclosporin which didn't agree with me)

Son tested positive for gastric parietal cell antibodies
My son has history with h pylori, which he was treated for, but the symptoms haven't gone away completely. Last week I was talking about my own b12 deficiency and he informed me he has the same symptoms. I know he has been more tried than normal, but I put it due to the h pylori, after effects. As that

blood results
I’m 65 year old female just had my blood work done recently. Would be grateful if someone could take a look at them. I have Hashimoto's and under active thyroid. I’m currently taking 125mcg Levo and 10mcg T3 per day. Have been feeling very tired recently no energy and can’t lose weight. T4 19.6 range

Hypothyroidism and weightloss
Good morning everyone,I am hoping for some good news stories to keep me going. I have gained 2 1/2 stone since I developed hypothyroidism, and I am finding it so so difficult to shift it again even though my current dose of t4/t3 seems to work really well in other aspects (hypo tiredness gone, depression

Timings of NDT and iron supplements
Hi all, I'm struggling to maintain ferritin levels whilst also trying to adhere to the timings of iron supplements around my NDT and other vitamins. My ferritin is rarely higher than 20s (in the last ten years the highest it has been was 52 just once). I've been on NDT for a year and am gradually

Sciatica link to low b12?

I usually have injections monthly ( self inject bi- monthly and have gp bi- monthly) I've heard it can be related but gp+ chiropractor say if my level is high (1000 last test) then nothing to do with it Thank

Clear Cell Progression
Here is an update on my treatment for ovarian clear cell carcinoma, which I guess has now moved into Stage IV (started 1a). My taxol/carboplatin & Avastin chemotherapy treatment was discontinued after 3 infusions, as CT scan showed progression of tumors, and invasion into my liver. The doctors at UCSF

My drs reduced my levo and now I'm having a mare.
So I've been suffering with swelling and pins and needles recently and my dr has said it must be my thyroid He's reduced levo from 100mcg to 75mcg. My t4 has gone from 13 to 11. The edema is worse now.. However my testerone has gone from normal 0.8... range 0.3-1.9 to 2.5!!! Does anyone know why

B12 or something else?
Hi About 2-3 years ago, during lockdown when it was difficult/impossible to see a GP, I started taking B12 supplements 3-4 times weekly. Whilst not wanting to diagnose myself, I felt I had little choice given the GP situation, plus my daughters are B12 deficient, and had the same symptoms as myself

Injection reactions?
Hello lovely people. I started SI three weeks ago and each time I'm left with a red, itchy patch of above the area I've injected into (not the actual injection site, but next to it where the needle will have deposited the B12 under my skin). Because I'm on EOD injections this means just when one stops
