symptoms flare-up
I have been battling an iron deficiency since November, that seems to be a result of my correcting b12 deficiency with shots. I have not been taking the full recommended dose of iron until about a week ago. My ferritin is 25, which is up from 14, but still deficient. The last 3 weeks or so I have notice

New FDA approved genetic test to predict the chance of opioid addiction
I am concerned about the new genetic test AvertD just approved by the FDA https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2024/03/25/dna-test-opioid-addiction/ It uses DNA to predict whether a person is likely to get addicted to opioids. I can envision where doctors will require patients to take the test and

Hyperthyroidism and Pegasys
Hi everyone, I have been on Pegasys for my ET for about 5 months and have now found out I have very low TSG levels and too high t4, i.e. hyperthyroidism. Has anyone else experienced thyroid problems and did they have to come off IFN? Thanks!

A quick question while you're having your cornflakes ( or fasting for a blood test 😊) if anyone knows the answer: Every day there are posts from people whose TFTs are within the reference range for the lab. And every day there are comments along the lines of 'your TSH / T3 / T4 should be higher [u]
