Lower back pain when walking
Hi, I was recently diagnosed with uat and am taking thyroxine (100mg) and my doc has said he feels it will have to be increased. I didn't get told what the results of the blood tests actually were. He did check my antibodies and said the uat was caused by my immune system. My doc is very thorough though

Which blood work and/or criteria was used to diagnose your PBC?
I'm 49, female and my gastroengerologist has quickly made the PBC diagnosis based on positive AMA (84.4 units , pos = >24.9), elevated AST (44, scale of 0-40), ALT (38, scale of 0-32), and high IGM 730 (scale of 40-230). My ALB and BIL are within acceptable range and three separate tests have also shown

Thomas's asthma is confusing
Well following the results of the RAST blood tests I have no idea what sets Thomas's asthma off. Turns out it was negative to moulds, house dust mites and animal dander. The coeliac screen was negative. Normal immunoglobulin levels, normal c3-c4, normal IgE.. The MRI showed normal intracranial appearance

Where to go now following GP GUESS WORK of M.E.
Following my ridiculous meeting with quack GP today, and being told my TSH OF 2.59 AND BOTTOM OF RANGE t3 and t4 definitely did not represent thyroidism, and it was more likely I had M.E (good call lol) I am a little unsure as to what my next port of call is. He has ordered a lot of new blood test (after

Any advice on Hypogammaglobulinaemia?
I had a hospital consultation with my haematologist today and on the printout of my blood test I notice that I have Hypogammaglobulinaemia. My Haematologist never even mentioned it. We only spoke about my Immunoglobulins which are all low. Any advice here?

Does anyone know of anywhere in the U.S. that performs the indium screening test? My hemo says it's officially "not recommended here.
I had a splenctomy 8 months ago, with no positive results, and now they've discovered an accessory spleen, and want to yank that out too. I've been on various steroids, ivig, rituxan, danazol, and am now approaching the highest dose of nplate, with counts stil hovering at 10 and below, but am not anxious

Immunoglobulin
I have received a letter from my Consultant saying that " Your immunoglobulin levels are slightly low, this will reduce your ability to fight off infections and I would like to refer you to a specialist team in Plymouth" As I have had repeated back to back infections (but then haven't most of us)
