Hi I just wanted a little advice and to get some knowledge on Thyroid Antibodies blood test. I read somewhere on here that if it's present in a bloood test ten your Gp should be giving you medication for this and treat your thyroid. Not sure if it's correct. But also how would this appear on your blood test? What form/wording should I look for on my blood results for this ? Just want to Check I'm readin tr correct thing on my results. Has this is so confusing to me. For over 3 years now I'm back and forth with gps about problems and 99% of thyroid related symptoms. Sorry if this doesn't make sense, hopefully I will learn more about this. Thank you
Also, would be great help if someone could advice me. For 15yrs I have been B1/ def. my god have prescribed me monthly injections this whole time, also loaded injections. Last year my iron levels dropped and I had to take folic acid daily. My Gp has never gave me a reason why or looked into this. I've asked. In the last 6 months I'm suffering terrible with stomache pains and burning. They thought it was a ulcer, test come back neg. they have me omperazole to take daily. Now this week. My Vid D levels are very low. And iron is even lower. I've been given Hux D3 20,000unit 5 tables to take daily. 100,000 ! Is this normal. Also Ferrous Fumarate 305mg twice a day. I do have a large grotire which they keep saying isn't causing me a problem. What could be wrong ? Sorry for long post

Sorry hope that makes sense. Soon as my thyroid resent bloods are back I will update. Also my menstral cycle has completely stopped. I haven't had one since. November. I'm 35. I've had them click work without fail every 28dahs since 13yrz. She said it's normal for my age. And that I'm depressed. I'm not depressed by the way. 😭
Thank you for your reply. Sorry for such a long post. I'm just so fed up of going to my Dr and siting there crying telling her I don't feel well, and I don't feel right. All she does is tell me I'm depressed. I have a few other problems which was serious that indicate a hormone problem. Like losing 8 pregnancys in a row prior to my cycle stopping. I've had 3 children without a problem. Soon has these problems started that's when it happened. Is there any links of information that I can take to my Gp? To show her. I will look into today to changing my Gp. Has I based in central London it's really hard. I have to be reg at a Gp within 1 mile of my home. What is a intrinsic factor test ? Sorry for long reply
Thank you. Will do now. Thanks again for your time. Not sure if she has tested me for the PA. would it appear as that word on bloods ? Or would I be looking for a different term used ?
Yes I did think that. As I'm not knowledgeable in this, but I'm aware of B12 has I've had it for so long. So I know that is low. As of having a person come with me to Gp I don't. It's just me and my childnren.
