Have I cardiac haemolytic anaemia or haven't I?
I have been borderline anaemic for some years and it seems that my TAVI a year ago and the consequent medication may have pushed me over the threshold. On May 31 a haematologist wrote to my GP following tests on
March 5
to say that "it is likely [that I have] cardiac haemolytic anaemia". But

Taking Biotin
Hello, As part of my daily suppliment intake I take the full range of B vitamins (B1-12), which includes 50mcg biotin. As I understand it, this is less than the 20mg which would affect my T4 levels, is that right? And at this dosage do I still need to stop taking this particular suppliment 2 days

Opinions Please
Hi I have just had my results from Medicheck. I followed all the recommendations, 9am test, no Levothyroxin for 24 hours, no Biotin for a week. I am currently taking 75 mg Levothyroxin, Vitamin D3, Methyl Folate & Thorne Basic B Complex. I am considering adding 25 mg Levothyroxin 3 times a week

Hi everyone, My first post here. I’d be interested in opinions on my most recent Medichecks results. Levels have been a little erratic in the last couple of years with the smallest possible dose changes (+/- 25mcg per week). I also have IBS. I’ve been in the hypothyroid game a long time so I’m very

Struggling, should I try increase now?
Good morning, Following my post last week, I am now really struggling with hypo symptoms which I think is more to do with reduction of the levo than addition of T3. I didn’t want to rush adding extra T3, have now been on 2.5 T3 for 8 days with levo (87.5x3 & 100x4 days) as I react so badly to changes

types of T3
Hi all I currently take Roma T3 capsules my prescription is due for renewal and I’m interested to know what other types of T3 are available and what people’s experience is with them. I’m not 100% sure the Roma capsules agree with me, it is also hard to split doses before blood tests. As always, very

Help for a friend please
Please could someone have a look at my friend’s recent blood test results. Some years ago, she can’t remember when, she was diagnosed with borderline hypothyroidism and given medication for this. She can’t remember what this was or the dose but the doctor told her to stop taking it after a short while
