Down to 2mg
I began the journey with PMR and Prednisone in July of 2021. Very scary time as theories were circulating throughout the world that the Covid-19 vax was responsible. I began tapering after 1week on a euphoric 40mg to 10mg which kept the inflammation and symptoms at bay. My blood tests did not confirm

Recurrence :(
Hi ladies,I haven't posted on here for a while, but I've just found out that my cancer has come back. I was initially diagnosed in October 2021 with stage 4 HGSOC and had 6 rounds of carbotaxol with a total abdominal hysterectomy and omentectomy after the 3rd cycle. I then went on to Olaparib, initially

At home fertility tests
Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has any experience with at home fertility tests? My entire social media feed seems to be adverts for these companies - can the blood test you do at home and post off give you the same information as a fertility MOT with a clinic? They're not cheap but they're cheaper

bladder aches
Hello all! New to the forum, 42 years old, male. Thanks for having me! About eight months ago, and for the first time in my life, I suddenly developed an ache in my bladder area. I had a prostate exam and blood test, as well as a UTI test and all was negative. Within 2-3 weeks the pain went away

Microvascular Dysfunction Tests
Does anyone know which tests are used to detect Microvascular Dysfunction/Disease? I have been experiencing breathlessness and chest pain and my doctor referred me to Cardiology. I have had a 24hour ECG, blood tests and a CT Coronary Angiogram. All have come back normal. However, I continue to have

Underactive thyroid
Hi, my thyroid levels have been up and down recently. I've been on 125mcg and felt fine until the GP decided, after a blood test, to lower the dose. The dosage I need isn't available so I'm now on 100mcg for 5 days and then 112mcg for 2 days. Is this an ok thing to do? Thanks.

Blood tests confirming malabsorption and malnutrition
Out of curiosity, I managed to set up my NHS portal and patient access, and checked through the last couple of years of various blood tests.Now, when I was in hospital in 2022 (all linked to mistreated hypothyroidism), many blood tests showed malabsorption and malnutrition. These were repeated daily

same Dose
I have a blood test in March. Have the test done at 10.30 am my GP Doctor called at 4.30 pm said your test is Normal you need to stay on the same dose of 50 mg and have a blood test next year. Not sure if it’s right kidney advice

Hot milk works
I have RLS and PLMD such that I have very strong muscle contractions in my legs and abdomen. It has been increasing in intensity over the last few years and may stop for a few nights then return.

High platelet count due to iron deficiency anaemia maybe?
Just again when I thought all was going well ! High platelet count from recent blood test shows Platelet count 515 10*9/L Platelet count has been abnormal for some time, but never this high. Not sure whether I should request the ferrous sulphate again, OR could it be PMR flare. I have felt pretty

Celiac blood test, looks like it sits on a borderline, between 'normal' and possibly abnormal 🤷🏻♀️ what could this mean?
Does anyone understand this celiac test? I was surprised to see I sit on what looks like a borderline... what does <0.3 (u/ml) mean? 🤷🏻♀️ I wondered about iga deficiency, but maybe this could be normal...🤷🏻♀️

calcium supplement before reclast infusion
is it best to take a calcium supplement before my infusion, I have had a blood test prior to my infusion but a blood test doesn't really show how much calcium in your bones and I have been reading that reclast lowers calcium levels.

Has my PMR Gone?
Hello friends, I haven't posted for some time now partly because I've been feeling very depressed on account of my worsening health and my GP has prescribed Mirtazapine to be taken every night before bed. I've been on them for a few months now but can't say in all honesty that I am feeling any better

Returning to Warfarin after 4 months on Edoxaban ...... part 2
I posted on here my original comments on this subject. Hopefully, this update, will be of interest. I made the decision to quit Edoxaban on 6 April. I didn't /couldn't be bothered to make contact with my GP, whenever I phone up for a chat I'm asked to make an appointment which usually is about 10 days

Letrozole
I saw the oncologist yesterday to discuss radiotherapy and hormone therapy.The plan for radiotherapy is on hold ATM because I have an ongoing issue with a seroma on the breast and underarm. During the meeting she said she would give me a prescription for Letrozole, I told her I wasn't happy to start
