lowered my dexa scores!
It is with great pleasure that I can tell this story! I had my 3yr dexa scan 2 weeks ago. Dreaded results as I’ve not taken drugs as when I initially tried them I was unwell (to say the least!) I improved my diet … cut way down on sugar, lowered carb intake, upped green veg, red meat, milk, yoghurt

First IVF Cyle - Endo sufferer - What should I be doing to prepare?
Hi All! Just looking for some advice about what to do prior to a IVF cycle. Bit of background… I have stage 4 endometriosis, kissing ovaries, 5cm cyst on one ovary and a small fibroid. My partner and I have been TTC for 6 years. The years of lack of success led to a lot of weight gain as I took

having bloods taken for Thyroid
I have my appointment at 8.40am for my bloods , is it best to take my thyroxine after my blood test. Or should I take it in the night. I have stopped my Biotin and Vitamin b complex for a couple of weeks. I only have this blood test annually so I want the best test results.

Reducing T3 - please help me understand
Hi all, I am baffled with my situation. I would be so grateful for any ideas. First, after being extremely sick for over 5 years I was finally diagnosed with mold exposure early in 2023 and now being treated by a top specialist at Cleveland Clinic in the US. Making progress. This doc warned me

blood results
Hi, I have had my blood results back from blue horizon. The only one they said was low was the TSH at 0.06. I was expecting this as I’ve been self sourcing T3 . Little worried about what my endo will say when he reruns bloods next month, as he’s not keen to raise my levo above 50. Results are below,

Folate Levels ?
I am still trying to feel well ? With symptoms including severe fatigue and weakness, disorientation, and joint and body pains. Can you please let meknow if I might need to increase my Folate level - as although within range - at 13 - I think I had read here that it is best if it is at least 50% through

Confused about latest blood tests - why are FT4 and FT3 rising, but I still feel awful and I'm undiagnosed and not on any meds?
Sorry for the super long post.... I would very much appreciate the help of you wonderful people on this forum. I am a bit confused with my latest blood test results that I just received yesterday, and am hoping that you will be able to help me understand what's going on. I'll try to keep it brief, while

vitamin d advice please
I’m sub clinic apparently. I plan to start V D but my first look at what’s available is confusing. Is there more than one V D as I see some are called D3? Is the RDA amount available or do you just take lots to make it up. I’m 61 female with AI rheumatoid conditions and veggie.

Hello, does how quickly you feel better after initial b12 injection(s) and iron infusion depend on your deficiencies severity?

recurrent fungal infections & reaction to probiotics
I have been on the same dose of Levothyroxine for about 13 months (212.5mcg) and seem to be doing ok thyroid wise.

Vit B12 deficient again after being taken off injections two years ago.
Hello Everyone, I haven’t been here for years and I need some advice please. My hubby started having strange symptoms over ten years ago and it was discovered that he had low vitamin b12, despite eating meat. His GP said he likely had Pernicious Anaemia and gave him a loading dose of injections and

Why did my infusions get stopped?
I’ve had several Rituximab infusions, usually every 9 months to a year apart; the last one was in 2021. In 2022 I was informed that Rituximab would be replaced by Rituxithon ( I hope that’s right) as its cheaper. I haven’t got a problem with this. In March 2020, the week before lockdown, I went

Diet and egg quality
Hey, I've did one round of IVF - got 20 eggs and only 3 made it to day 5. I was told many of the eggs were immature and I know I really need to make changes to my diet to have any chance of success next round. I live on ALOT of sugar and only recently read about how bad this can be, can anyone give me
