Struggling with my medication doses.
I was diagnosed as hypothyroid at 17, after no menstration for 18 months. By 18/19 I was stable on 75mcg with menstration returning. From 2012 - 2020 I had been put up to 125mcg. I have to admit that I hadn't been taking my medication very well (taking around 70% of doses) for a couple of years, and

PCa and macular degeneration
I suspect I'm not the only one here with Stage 4 PCa and beginning age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Most ophthalmologists recommend that folks with AMD take the AREDS2 supplements, which were shown in NIH trials to slow AMD progression in some cases. FYI, the AREDS2 formula is: 500 mg vitamin

Has anyone had ferritin as high as 557
I just had my 1st lab tests since my restless legs increased last spring. I take ferrous sulfate 3 times a day. My ferritin tested at 557 which needless to say really surprised me.

Input would be greatly appreciated.
I'd be grateful of any advice to help me be prepared with the correct information before I contact my GP surgery. I've already received invaluable information from Forum members and the Pernicious Anaemia Society have been a lifesaver. Please excuse my long story and any over sharing of information

Please advise on test results. Should I increase Levo?
Hi everyone. I just got a few new tests done and now struggling to understand what to do next. I'm currently on 100mg Levo. The latest results are: TSH 2.05 (0.27 - 4.2) T4 20.7 (12 - 22) T3 4.3 (3.1 - 6.8) For comparison, these were my numbers from January when I was on 50mg: TSH 9.65 (0.27 - 4.2) T4

Please help me with my latest blood results - confused and disappointed
Please can someone help me get to the bottom of what's going on with my latest blood results? I had a thyroid test 2 days ago: Current dose: 75mcg mon-fri and 50mcg at the weekends TSH: 10.1 (0.4-4.2) T4: 14.2 (12-22) I was advised by an Endocrinologist to tweak the dose to 75/50 as I would like to

Folic acid and calcium question
Hi all, I have another thyroid test next Tuesday. I take folic acid daily as well as zinc, selenium and vitamin D. Should I stop taking folic acid now until next week? Is it the same as B12? Also is it ok to eat dairy/drink a flat white coffee 2 hours after Levo ingestion?? I’ve been doing this but when

Ferrous Sulfate gives me headaches
Hi, sorry if I've posted this in the wrong section as I dont have Thyroid problems. I've recently had a low iron deficiency confirmed and have been told to buy supplements and take them 3x a day. The chemist recommended Ferrous Sulfate 200mg. I have found that after taking just one I get an awful headache

Can I take these at the same time??
I always take my extended-release metoprolol with a bit of food. Two hours later (stomach supposedly empty), I take my Flecainide and lisinopril. I wait another two hours without eating, and then have brunch. Is it ok to take these 5, listed below, all together ***at the same time*** with brunch?

previous question but no feedback
I'm going to repost this just in case people missed it who might know Hi all, i've realised I probably need more zinc, now i'm aware that sweeteners can be a bad thing all the time but some of the supplements have no sweeteners but they do have microcrystalline cellulose, sorbitol or magnesium stearate

ingredients in supplements
Hi all, i've realised I probably need more zinc, now i'm aware that sweeteners can be a bad thing all the time but some of the supplements have no sweeteners but they do have microcrystalline cellulose, sorbitol or magnesium stearate. Are these ok with Hashimotos? P.S I have now gone wheat, gluten

Please could someone review this for me...

Advice on supplements & iron panel and selenium /zinc tests
Hello is anyone able to interpret my latest iron panel result? I have been supplementing with 150mg of iron bisglycinate and 1 ferrous fumarate tablet daily before this test (stopped 1 week before). With iron of 74% through range is this too high or can I continue? My ferritin result is only 54 (or

Rituximab and statins - a good combo?
Morning Peeps 🙂 I am having my first Rituximab infusion 24th May. I have high cholesterol and have booked an appointment for a phone consultation with my GP today. I think it's about time I went on statins to reduce my high cholesterol. We have discussed it before, some time back, but she was reluctant

Infection?
Good day gents I’m on day 11 post circumcision, I have yellow stuff on my incision lines and/ stitches ….can this be an infection ? Second question , is it ok for me to take warm baths with Epsom salts instead of me putting warm water in a container and cleaning the wound using cotton wool ?
