Experiences with

Vitamin K1

I'm aware that historically Warfarin has a question mark over vitamin K1 for various reasons Some people seem to monitor using inr testing but my question is that more modern anti coagulants use a different mechanism of action.

Metabolic Panel (14); Thyroxine (T4) Free, Direct; TSH; Vitamin D, 25-Hydroxy; Vitamin K1; Triiodothyronine (T3); Triiodothyronine (T3), Free; Ambig Abbrev CMP14 Default (I had my bloodwork done around 8 a.m. after fasting for 12 hours and 24 hours after my last dose of 75 mcg levothyroxine).

I want to add K to my D and don’t know the specifics or dosing. I have a stockpile of about 6-12 months of D3 due to an auto-Amazon order and previously sharing the D with family. I take one a day - D3 at 2500 iu (62.5 mcgs). What specifically can I add to get the right k? K, k1, k2, what about mk7

I haven’t taken my medication in 6 weeks or longer to be honest yet I had my TSH and T4 done and perfectly normal. TSH: 1.47 (0.4-5.7 T4: 18 (11-20) My vitamins were also supposedly fine despite me not taking any supplements I only stopped because my depression got so bad I just wasn’t taking anything

I'm 34 yo, diagnosed with severe endometriosis and trying to conceive naturally. I met with a consultant from UCLH (Dimitrios Mavrelos) and he suggested IVF. My heart sank when I heard it. It's been almost 8 months since we've started trying but no luck so far. I'm now looking into alternative medicines

Hi all Sorry I haven't been on here for a while and I hope you are all doing ok. A little while ago my condition was changed from Polycythemia to Idiopathic Erythrocytosis although my research sees that they are both similar and have the same treatment. I still go to Hospital every 4 weeks and need

I have had multiple recurring meningiomas with subsequent infections since 2020. I have undergone radiation treatments x2. The first was 5 times/week x 6 weeks. The next was called TrueBeam. It was only one treatment in November of 2023, but it left me with brain lesions (areas of necrosis on

I felt brill initially when adding in the T3 to my thyroxine, but 6 months down the line I feel terrible again. I'm settled on 4 x 125/3x100 T4 and 1 x5 T3 but I am still craving more hormones! My digestive system is so slow, im only going to the loo every 2-3 days. Im also tired and forgetful and

Hi all It’s been 9 months since I was diagnosed with Supraventricula Tachycardia (SVT) and associated ectopics (heart palpitations) and I thought it would be useful to list what has worked for me in understanding and managing the condition. Prior to diagnosis I was waking bolt upright with a racing

Hi all So I think I am a poor converter (test results and history to date in the attached photo - hopefully you can see it all) and need to trial some T3. I have a consultation booked with R Labs for next week but am now wondering whether that is a waste of time as I see from posts I was reading last

Question - Is it worth me bothering with the SST considering the below info? I am thinking maybe not but as you have all been so helpful in the past I thought I'd ask for opinions please. Preface - All my core vitamins are optimal and have been for many months now. I don’t take thyroid meds, no antibodies

I have read that b-complex vitamins especially food like spinach and avocado might be able to ease the symptoms of schizophrenia.

Hi all, I'm a bit puzzled with my latest results as my FT3 is now at the top of range and i'm feeling a bit rough. Usually my TSH is reflective, but it seems to have gone higher... TSH - 2.03 (0.35-5.5) FT3 - 6.63 (3.1-6.8) FT4 - 20.9 (11.9 - 21.6) I seem to be on my lowest dose of levo this

Hi. I'm 55, female, perimenopausal. I was diagnosed with Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in 2016 aged 46. No radiotherapy/chemo but lots of surgery. In the middle of this, I had a thyroid goitre appear, seemingly from nowhere. It was reviewed on US as slightly swollen thyroid lobes with multi

Hello. I was initially diagnosed with a single thyroid nodule 8 years ago after an awful virus, 3 years ago I asked for it to be re-checked & they said “it’s fine”. I asked for it to be re-checked a few months ago as felt it had got bigger. At the appointment I didn’t have the camera down my throat

My surgery have stopped doing yearly tests for hyperthyroid levels. I had my last yearly test 3 years ago , the next year it was deemed not necessary, although I haven't been to the doctor about my condition for about 4 years. I am now getting just an occasional T4 test when I need a revised prescription

Hi Everyone , I don’t have recent bloods as I am due one now so I’ve just ordered a TDL finger prick test to check vitamins as well as full thyroid panel . I’m on 1.5 grains at the moment under supervision of private Endo . I’ve had these pulling sensations in inner thighs and forearms now for a

Hello I've recently finished my third cycle. I've only had 2 embryos to transfer from three rounds. I'm 39 and have low AMH levels (likely due to age along with two ovarian operations - as levels were very good ahead of surgery). I am usually a really positive person and I would say I've handled IVF

ok .. I have the above that started as one episode every 6 weeks but has now increased to every two weeks . 200mg of flecainide stops the episode in an hour or so . The cardiologist has also prescribed 2x50mg daily - but this seems to be what prompted the episode to increase in regularity ! I’m very

I am currently stuck in hospital due to a huge nosebleed on Tuesday morning. I came in with all my medicine for the week in my pill box. They insisted on locking it away in my nightstand. They have no idea what Armour is. I take Armour and some Levo at 8am and more Armour at 5pm and leave an hour before
