Replying to enquirer "fifteen".
You sent me a message asking for a paper on hypothyroidism and left ventricular failure. I've found this that might be of use: Br Heart J. 1982 Sep; 48(3): 278–284. doi: 10.1136/hrt.48.3.278 PMCID: : 7104121 Left ventricular function in hypothyroidism. Responses to exercise and beta adrenoceptor

Neely Diagnosed
I was diagnosed last August with ET, MPL mutation and platelets between 700-800 range. It has been very hard for me to deal with because I have medical anxiety and always have. I basically tried to ignore it, but with blood tests every 3 months to remind me, that’s not a good long-term coping strategy

Do steroids mask infection
I had a total knee replacement on 25th Nov. Took 10 mgs of Pred (double dose re Sick Day rules). On 24th Dec got infection in scar - stitch abcess for which I got antibiotics from MIU. Saw Ortho surgeon a few days later who told me to stop taking antibiotics because they would mask bacterial infection

How long do you give new HRT to work?
GP says 3 months. My body feels that's too long, coping with the side effects. Personally I would rather give new HRT 6 weeks to see if that's suiting me. What is the consensus please?

Interaction of Parkinson’s meds with heart meds
I take Ritary, Azilect and carb/lev and had heart valve replacement surgery at the end of August. Lots of side effects including hallucinations. Haven’t found much history on this but hear it common with PWP’s.. Mogul 1

Early RA
Hello, I'm in a conundrum with blood tests which frustratingly were only taken because I wanted HRT! My CRP is raised but reducing (22-18-15) & ESR also a bit high but coming down over 3 months. I have had an abnormal Anti CCP (10) & above 7 is raised. The RF test was negative. I am generally well

Requesting help with vitamin results - thyroid looks OK
Hi all, After a few years of not having much luck getting my GP to do blood tests, they really took the biscuit a few months ago of only testing TSH and free T4 and not testing T3, even Total T3 at all. When I asked about this, the practice said they are not doing blood tests anymore and were outsourcing

Do I need chemically induced menopause injection if I have already started menopause naturally?
I just wanted to ask Do I need chemically induced menopause injection if I have already started menopause naturally? I'm supposed to have injection and start HRT soon. Seems stupid but i would like to know other opinions. I have stage 4 endo and my uterus and ovaries are stuck to my bowel and this treatment

Thin lining medicated FET
I had my base scan on Thursday on CD11 and my lining is only 7.2mm. I’m a little worried as this is the first medicated FET with 6mg estrogen daily (Elleste Solo 2mg, an HRT drug). Previously I had 2 natural cycle FET and my lining was much thicker 9mm. Since Thursday they have up my dose to 8mg estrogen
