Non-NHS options to treating subclinical hypothyroidism?
Hi, after pushing my GP last week, they are still "very deaf" to my thyroid/antibodies and the saliva cortisol test - see below; NHS 9am serum cortisol was 309 in 2017 (compared to 376 in 2015 by Blue Horizons!). Blue Horizon Autumn 2017 Thyroid panel indicates ineffecient T4-T3 conversion: Folate (

Anxiety about blood work !!
Im a 22 yr. Old Female. I've been having some health problems that ended up making my Dr want to look into more. Which made me a little worried. He scheduled me a colonoscopy.

Private blood tests back- confused about what to do next, back to the GP or go straight to a private doctor?
Hello, I have just got my Blue Horizon blood tests back (appreciated the recommendation!) but not sure what’s best. I’m still getting to grips with deciphering the numbers but think my TSH is ‘normal’ but not optimal, free T4 could be higher , free T3 is lowish and Vit D needs improving. Am I best to

treatment choices
I'm new here. I am the wife of the sweetest fellow I know. He has prostate cancer. Has anyone had proton beam therapy? It seems our insurance won't cover it because it is experimental???? I thought it had been around for a while.

Low protein diet plan for PD meds
I wish someone would make a list of food and recipes, for low protein, 5 small meals daily, so meds can be absorbed quickly. I found about 4mg protein per small meal, still lets meds get by. My neurologist is so funny, he said,"drink plenty of water when you take stalevo, but don't drink too much water

Kidney cancer survivor
Hi! I am a 62 year old female who was diagnosed with kidney cancer last March after a radical nephrectomy was performed. Luckily this was found by my primary care doctor after finding microscopic blood in my urine during a complete physical and insisting that I go for a cat scan. I had no symptoms so

New blood results look fine (I think). Could someone advise on supplements for the lingering symptoms and anything to help with antibodies?
Hi everyone, I am on 50mcg levothyroxine for hypothyroidism. This was prescribed at a point where I had a whole page of symptoms but TSH<10 so had to fight for this. From research I know I have Hashimotos. I was fortunate that many of the symptoms improved when strating medication but it has been nearly

I am really struggling to find what the problem is with my daughter. She is exhausted all the time and has to sleep so much that her quality of life is severely affected. She is on B12 injections and supplements Folate, Ferritin, D3. She is negative for h-pylori and the cortisol tests weren't that bad

Referring Committee?
