Beta Blockers Reynauds
Hello, I take propranolol and have noticed I get really numb and pale fingers if they get even slightly cold. I used to get this but it is so much worse now! I have to run my hands under hot water for ages and eventually the feeling comes back into them. I had a blood test today and it happened there

Feeling anxious about appointment....
Just wondering if anyone can shed any information that may help me understand. I've been unwell most of 2023, was in hospital for 8 days with suspected pneumonia. Prior to this I've had abnormal blood tests for a while. I'm anemic but my iron levels, vitamin b12 levels are fine... I've had a number

CRP 220
Currently in hospital with Pneumonia. My CRP was 180 on Saturday and went up to 220 on Monday. Medics are going to do a procalcitonin blood test which I've never heard of. Could one of you very clever forum members enlighten me

Flare or Adrenal Crisis
During the Christmas period I had a series of very stressful situations , including transatlantic travel. Upon returning I experienced extreme burning pain in my neck, arms, shoulders and groin. I could barely get out of bed. It was the same pain I experienced when I was first diagnosed with PMR 2 1

Coming off of Calquence.
After 2 years of treatment with infusions and Calquence (1 yr), I was taken off of Calquence because of major side effects. After being off the drug for 3 weeks, I returned for a new blood test, The oncologist said there was no more need for treatment, the blood test was perfect. My issue is that

Folic acid

Pink Cheeks and Forehead
Hi, I was diagnosed back in 2019 with hypothyroidism and been on Teva Levothyroxine ever since. I take 50 micrograms and then 75 micrograms the next day and so on.

Another day of conflicting advice
Having reduced slowly to 3.25, I had the horrid flu virus with a possible GCA flare with headache similar to the pre diagnosis ones, unbelievable fatigue and very low mood. Raised by 1mg and symptoms settled. Saw GP today to try and ascertain whether it was a flare and he thought no, but just tapering

”Reduced b12” - panicking
Hi everyone, I must confess, about 3 months ago, I didn’t even know what b12 was! But I can only apologise for the essay you’re about to endure. My story is a fairly long and often confusing one but the upshot is, about 10/11 weeks ago, I began with what seems now to be a panic attack in work accompanied

Blood test results & ultrasound
Hi there, I had a baby 14 months ago now and towards the end of my pregnancy a blood test flagged a high liver test result and so they tested me again postpartum to check it had returned to normal. After multiple blood tests these are the most recent in the image and the GP referred me for an ultrasound

ELF blood test
Hi I’ve just had a repeat ELF blood test ..3yrs since I had my first one 3yrs ago it was 10.00 this time it’s 9.8 so a slight improvement I think question is when Siemens say 9.8 is a high reading and NHS say refer to hepatology when 10.5 or higher is this something I need to be concerned about

Supplements to help liver
I had a blood test that showed raised ALT and then stopped drinking for 3 months and the repeat test had gone down to normal levels. I have heard that various things can help the liver, milk thistle, artichoke, dandelion etc. Is there any merit in any of these. I do not drink a lot but the occasional

Fibromyalgia A Living Nightmare
Hello 👋Sorry that the title of this blog sounds so blunt. I have tried all known medication from NHS and private pain specialist & sadly to say that there is no cure whatsoever.
