Help needed to understand blood results please
Hi All, I wrote a post several weeks ago with regards to being diagnosed with Graves' Disease 23 years ago and undergoing radioactive iodine 6 years later. I have been on 175mcg levothyroxine daily indefinitely since then but a year ago I was diagnosed with anaemia (reduced mean cell volume of red cells

Tingling and pain in hands and feet - could it be the B12?
Hi all, I got some blood tests recently. Here they are: TSH 0.82 mU/l (0.30-4.50) FT4 1.24 ng/dl (0.80-1.70) FT3 3.14 ng/l (2.30-4.20) Ferritin 108 (15-291) Vitamin D 26 ng/ml (11-43) Vitamin B12 318 ng/l (211-911) Folic acid 9.32 (>5.38) I realized my B12 is quite low, and my doctor agrees, so I have

Trying an experiment, early days
Hi guys, all has been quiet lately apart from three brief AFib episodes in January sorted out with an additional 100 mg of Flecainide in addition to my daily 9.00 pm one. Notes on each of the last six episodes 3 in 2019 and 3 this year have this common feature “very bloated”. My cardiologist sent me

Help needed in long term effects of RAI for Graves Disease, long term use of Levothyroxine and how I go about transitioning to NDT.
Hi all, To give a brief history - I was diagnosed with Graves’ Disease in 2000. After 6 years on Propananol, Levothyroxine and Carbimazole, I had Radio Active Iodine in 2006 and have been on varying doses of Levothyroxine ever since. During my routine yearly blood test at the end of 2019 it was detected

Stopping med for gastroscopy
Hello I’ve just joined this community. I have lived with acid reflux for most of my life (now 52). I had antibiotic treatment for an ulcer about 20 years ago which worked really well. I’ve taken 20mg of omeprazole for a long time. This was increased to 40mg in January after symptoms got worse. Had

Carvedilol
I have cirrhosis and the ongoing stuff with it. I was on Omeprazole and Spironolactone. Told I was on it for life. No problem. But after a recent gastroscopy I was put on Carvedilol. I had dreadful side effects. Plummeting blood pressure and no appetite. I have barely eaten for over a week. I have spoken

Failed gastroscopy
So I have been on the list for a gastroscopy since I was diagnosed with cirrhosis last July. Because of severe abdo pain for the last few weeks it was brought forward as urgent and I had it this morning. I have had several of these before, all bar the first one with sedation. However today they were

HIPEC
Has anyone here had, or knows of someone, that has had HIPEC for metastasised stomach cancer? My husband has one metastatic tumour 4 yrs after his gastrectomy. It is in an awkward position and 6 months of standard chemo has had little effect and they’ve had to lower the dose of radiotherapy for fear

Autoimmune stomach problems & PPI's
Hi all, just had a gastroscopy which showed inflammation of the stomach lining & small bowel. Have been given omeprazole PPI 20mg but I'm worried about implications of taking this e.g. malabsorption of vitamins & Levothyroxine. Doc didn't say if inflammation was autoimmune related but I've heard antibodies

Hiatus hernia / Oesophagitis / Gastritis
I have lupus and many (if not all) symptoms of hypothroidism. Last week I had my first appt with endocrinology (a telephone appt given Covid) and during the conversation the endocrinologist advised that my thyroid blood levels were within the normal range, which indicates that I do not warrant treatment
