Dosage reduction
I had some
blood
tests
done at a new GP surgery. I only wanted cholesterol done. However, they did a TSH which came up as 0.22, the same as it was when I saw private endocrinologist in April and he was fine with that.

CTX score

Mucinous Ovarian Tumour
I had subsequently had
blood
tests
- CA125, CA19-9, liver, kidneys and full
blood
count, all of which were normal. I now have conflicting advice from oncologists, with one sayin I need a course of chemotherapy and the other saying no need for chemotherapy, just regular
blood
tests
.

Advice on back pain & pred dosing...
I also get hip pain so going to ask my gp for
blood
tests
to test esr and crp levels and maybe request a mri for my back. My last dexa scan was great but obviously things have changed since then so will ask for that too. Would just like advice really.

Help with understanding my TSH levels from blood tests
Hello 66 year old female. HRT 15 years. CFS? but now doubted. I was 'finally' diagnosed as being hypothyroid about 18 months ago after probably having it for years. I was previously told I had CFS. I was started on 50mg of levothyroxine as normal. Eventually twice after a few months my fatigue was

But I doubt it. 3, should I be given futher
blood
tests
under a controlled situation, like I take the T3 then have my blood checked at intervals to see the effects of the T3 in my blood stream?

Itching
I was only referred to a hepatologist after years of irregular
blood
tests
showing raised ALP and Gamma-GT. I’ve had a multitude of scans,
blood
tests
etc to reach the diagnosis and currently meet my consultant twice a year to monitor the situation.

Hypochondria
I had a full urinalysis and
blood
panels. Out of 50
tests
the only thing out of normal range was A1C: 5.7 (5.7--6.3). [/i] [i]So
blood
tests
confirm pre-diabetes. Not enough disease for medication, instead I have to eat less junk food.

Just diagnosed
I have no symptoms currently and it was only discovered during routine
blood
tests
. I honestly don't know what to do with this info. I didn't think to ask for a print out of my stats at the time. My next tests will be in September. Should I be following any kind of supportive diet?

Cirrhosis but no change in bloodwork
I would think some of those would be reflected in
blood
tests
? Also recent changes in
blood
pressure and thyroid function that indicate my meds are not working well anymore. Don’t know what to make of it all. Doctors are not helpful and just telling me to lose weight.

Blood test results
I was told they can't have their patients doing their own
blood
tests
. So I replied that if they would give me one I wouldn't have to do home tests, needless to say that didn't go down very well.

Advice on latest blood results
Hi all, Could I have some advice on my latest
blood
tests
results ahead of my doctors appointment next week. My symptoms have definitely improved. My levothyroxine is 75 mg (currently 50mg accord brand, 25 mg teva) was increased (on my request) from 50mg to 75 mg 7 weeks ago.

Started Besremi
Blood
tests
revealed very high hematocrit, etc. I was immediately put on
blood
thinners and given the PV diagnosis. The hematologist wanted me to start Hydrea, but because of side effects I declined and started phlebotomies only.

Vitamin B complex before blood tests
I know that you should stop any b vitamin supplements for 3-7 days before a thyroid test due to the biotin but does this apply to other
blood
tests
. GP wants me to do some
blood
tests
next week for iron etc and wondering if I should stop the b complex before. TIA

cortisol 24 hour urine result
I know the urine and
blood
tests
are pretty rubbish so I have ordered a saliva. But for now this is what I have from the nhs endocrinologist. I have a new private app in a few weeks to see a new endo who can hopefully help me with the low cortisol.
