Inspiring medical research news
Hi all, I received this, this morning. Amazing how much is going on behind the scenes 😀 Medical research newsletter, well worth a read. Maybe consider taking part? I'm on a drug trial for an alternative statin. It hasn't affected any of my usual drugs, no side effects, regular 6 monthly blood tests.

I had an under active thyroid, been taking 50mg levothyroxine for 1 yr, 3 blood tests since all show perfect levels but I can’t lose weight.
Even though my blood tests show that I’m on the correct dose of Levothyroxine since having a hemi-thyroidectomy, I cannot shift the pounds, even though I am eating very few calories every day. (Everything that I do eat throughout the day is nutritious, small portions, and I have no junk food or “empty

My turn to go to A&E
Well what a day i had yesterday, at about 4am i woke up in a right state as couldn't breathe. It took quite a while for me t get back to sleep. When i woke up i didn't feel well at all. It was as much as i wanted to do just to get up and go to the loo before coming downstairs to get myself a cup of tea

embaby back transferred in on day 3
thanks to everyone who replied to my post about double vs single transfers. I decided to go for a single embryo transfer in the end. I just thought the risk of twins and all the things that come with it would be too much for us physically and financially . So we transferred a top quality embryo today

Post-Covid lung issues - what to expect?
Hi all, I had Covid in mid November and have been sick ever since, particularly (and perhaps only) breathlessness and fatigue. I was first diagnosed with asthma, but the meds only seemed to stave off a worse episode of breathlessness. So I went back to the docs and insisted on being seen, as I was

so confusing
I had PMR in my 50s. Was treated with prednisone until the PMR burned itself little over a year later. Last June, 20 years later, my hands and wrists became a problem. No swelling but pain & stiffness in fingers and wrists. Carpal tunnel syndrome was the first dx. Over the summer pain and stiffness

Tinnitus
I was diagnosed PV with positive Jak2 in November, 2022. Hydroxy and low dose aspirin has seemed to work for me. Good blood tests, only mild fatigue. But past few months, I developed a ringing in my ears and decided to have a hearing exam (at the urging of my PCP). It turns out that I have a condition

Blood collection device
Hi, I recently did a home blood test with Zoe. I was really dreading it as I thought it was a finger prick test, and I really don’t like that, fainted getting tested for gestational diabetes. However, it wasn’t a finger prick test. It was a thing you stick on your upper arm with a collection tube at

blood test results
I have been taking 2 grains a day and haven’t been feeling fatigued so I am happy on this dose. My only concern is that my vitamin levels have gone down and my TPOAb antibodies have gone up since my last blood test. I’m taking the same supplements and don’t think I’ve been doing anything differently

after a stent…
This is for information only for those who may have a stent fitted recently or about to. It’s about side effects that can happen and why. I had a stent fitted to open up my LAD just before Christmas this year after being on a medical regime for 11 months. The procedure took about an hour rather

Newly Diagnosed

Feeling worse
Hi all Hope everyone's had a good start to 2024. I was started on levothyroxine 25mcg on 19th December, after being on it for 2 weeks I did feel a very slight improvement, it only lasted a couple days, and have been feeling worse since. The levo was teva brand. I have collected my new month prescription

Myasthenia Gravis
I have been on prednisolone for almost 2 years for Polymyalgia Rheumatica (GP Diagnosis) but over the last year I have been losing strength and other neuromuscular issues. I have seen Neurologists but EMG and blood test always came back inconclusive. Until Last week! A blood test for AChR (Serum) came

Not sure what's wrong.
Hi, I wasn't sure as to which community to post in but here goes. I am a 52 year old male. About 6 months ago I became unwell due to a virus of some sort. It’s likely I had COVID but I never tested positive for it. Ever since I’ve just not been right and most days I have a lack of energy and usually
