Podcast on heart, cholesterol, statins, diet, gut health, Vit D, micro biome 💕🌱
This came on randomly in the car this morning on the way into work. I found it very engaging and it gave me confidence I’m on the right track with my health. They reference auto immune and epidemic hypothyroidism. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-gut-health-gurus-podcast/id1433882512?i=1000600120659

Supplements in 1st trimester extra folic acid
Do you take extra folic acid to the multi vitamin like Pregnacare? Is 400mcg folic acid the minimum daily amount or recommended amount? The reason im asking is Pregnacare is coated tablet, I start feeling bloated immediately after taking it, which isn’t the case for years until now I’m at early pregnancy

New blood test results - help needed before GP appt
Summary of previous issues: I was put on 50 mcg Levo in November 2022 and was refused an increase by two GPs at my practice after a test in January (they said my results were "normal"). Advice from this forum that I was undermedicated. I decided to wait another 8 weeks and then pay for a private test

Help with interpreting daughter's blood results
Hello, I would like some help with understanding my daughter's blood results. She is undiagnosed but symptomatic. She will be on Vit D loading dose shortly as that is very low. Like me (in a separate post I'm also requesting help for my own blood tests) she has the MTHFR gene which I understand affects

Vitamin D
Good afternoon, I have been asked by my gp to take an over the counter B vitamin supplement that contains at least 400mcg of folic acid. I managed to buy Thorne Basic B complex with folate but I am finding the tablets difficult to swallow because of their size. Can anyone recommend another brand of vitamin

Looking for support - glioblastoma
Hi, My 72 year old wife was recently diagnosed with a grade 4 glioma / glioblastoma. Short history is one hospital wanted to dive right in and do surgery. A 2nd opinion initially ruled it as inoperable after a biopsy. Then they did some tests to determine viability of an "awake" surgical resection.

New testing available at Tesco
I just spotted this on social media. Vit D test is only ÂŁ8 and for just a TSH test ÂŁ10. I'll look into what else they offer that might be of use. With any luck they might expand it to include full thyroid function? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/newfoundland-tesco-covid-nhs-holly-williams-b2290046

Update Rheumatologist Appointment

Help with latest blood results - big TSH increase
Hi lovely people, Once again, please can I call on your brilliant minds to help me decipher my latest blood results 🙏 My TSH has made a huge jump - from 0.06mcg in my previous test (October 22) to 2.61mcg last week. Any thoughts on why this has happened? Up to now, my optimum levo dose has been 100mcg
