New NHS Endocrinologist tomorrow for ‘Second Opinion’. Help with bloods please!
Hello! I finally have my ‘Second Opinion’ NHS Endocrinology Consultant tomorrow after it was put back a few weeks. The first Endocrinologist (who I’ve been sent to a few times now) utterly disagrees with me taking T3, and has made her displeasure clear in person and in her letters to my GP. I am

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

Firstly, thank you for all your advice on my last thread, needless to say I took it onboard and proceeded to get another blood test with the advised timings and vitamins etc. So once again I hope I can ask for your advice again, I'll post Januarys and now March's, they look better to me, but as I said

Symptoms with normal blood tests?
I had other blood work done in the past too and that was okay, (iron,
vitamin

, cholesterol, etc) - sorry I don't have the specifics of everything I had tested but the doctor had to take a lot of blood, so I know they tested a fair bit, and it was all normal.

PV - Folic Acid and Vit D
Hi Please excuse if this has been asked before, I’m sure it has but can’t find the post 😬 I have PV and had blood done at Dr recently and was told I needed to take folic acid and Vit D. I take HU which has recently been reduced by 1 tablet a week and last bloods were HCT 38, Hb 13.4, WBC 7.6

Blood test time - still no better
Hello I'm posting again to get views on my latest blood tests, although I think it's probably same as last time. I just don't get anywhere with my doctor. Last time some of you were saying that I possibly had poor conversion and I think my results this time are showing similar sort of numbers. My doctor
