increased tinnitus post levithyrixine
Hi I have been taking levothyroxine 50mcg since 2015 my dose has never changed as my GP always says my blood results are within range I have never felt really well on levothyroxine and also the tinnitus I experience seems to increase a while after I take it. A friend said to try taking it at night

Suppression of TSH but low T4/T3 levels whilst taking Levo/Lio Combo
A few years ago, my thyroid results were looking a lot better but NHS GP over the last 2 years has told me to reduce my dosage twice (because of the 'risks' of overtreatment). I'm now on 100mcg levothyroxine (75mcg supplied by GP and topped up by myself) and 25mcg liothyronine (self-sourced). I now don't

Confounded by two different results for MMA test. One negative, one positive
About six weeks ago husband took a Medichecks MMA test. It was over range (positive) In a way I was relieved by this because it meant that now we knew what we were dealing with and what to do about it. However, GP was clueless and referred us on to a specialist in Cambridge, who five weeks after the

Negative PA Test - way forward
I had a low Vitamin B12 (125 mg/L) and low folate. One of my symptoms was severe pins and needles - particularly my legs, feet and genital areas. I had 4 loading doses of b12, followed by a further 2 at my request. I started folate tablets after 2 jabs. I had a IF test which came back negative. Shows

Folic acid and b12
Hi all, I’m new here. I have low B12 (390 -180-900), but have been tested for pernicious anaemia and the test came back clear. I have low folic acid (3.4 -3.00-17.00) and was perscribed folic acid 5mg. I just read that taking folic acid when low in b12 can cause neurological symptoms. I was tested

Breakthrough?
Only 15 days in to the successful regiment of 2 mg every 5 hours including setting an alarm and injecting at night. So three times in the last 15 days I essentially skipped a dose. The breakthrough is I was able to observe that there was a 10 to 15 hour delay in the effects of that missed dose. Or

low folate
hi all, I’m sorry for another post. I’ve just been to the doctor. He will check my stool but said my folate as low. 3.4 (range 3.00- 17.00). Could this be the culprit? Extreme extreme tiredness, very bad headaches, weakness, feeling low, irritability. Hot flushes..

Pins and Needles
I made an error in not being aware that I was reading pins and needles and equating that with the agony and debilitating pain I used to experience. Not the same experience. Part of this error is the treatment protocols are the same no matter the pain and agony level so to physicians the severity is
