arranging iron infusion
Hello, I’m having a remote consultation with Dr Toby Richard’s on Thursday with a view to having an iron transfusion in London on 31st May. I am wondering if other people have experienced any negative reactions / side effects from iron infusions ….. or indeed any really positive results! positive stories

Latest blood tests
Hi everyone, I posted a while ago about getting all my underactive thyroid symptoms back, joint pains, fatigue, anxiety and others. I’d had test results saying my TSH was low, but the dr was saying that it was satisfactory. I managed to speak to another dr and she ordered full blood tests. My results

Waste of time at new Endo
Hi all just thought I'd UPDATE after my daughters visit with the new Endo. On a scale of 1-10. I rate him a 2! The nurse took her BP and asked weight & hgt. Then the Dr walks in , says ok let's look at labs , remarked all look good. Daughter goes on to say she's put on weight despite working out and

feel like I’m an imposter here
hi I’m running the Bridge to 10 k podcast again but still only just got to 5k. I started running again end of Feb after 8 months convalescence from an op. I did it sensibly and went back to C25k week 4 which I felt I could do comfortably and built up from there. I ran the 3 x 30 min runs in week 9 but

Malabsorption of drugs?
I am still awaiting a diagnosis of PA, but do suspect I do have it. My stomach pH level was recently 8.1, so very low stomach acid, which is why I am not absorbing/processing B12, iron and folate. I also did a test which showed I have very low diamine oxidase in my gut so have histamine intolerance.

”It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop” Kong Qui; Confucius
Another bump in the road…for me. First it was Trazodone that eventually brought my RLS to an intolerable level, as well as my self-diagnosed small fiber neuropathy. Now, three months in with Pantoprazole (a weak PPI), it is doing the same. For the past month, or so, increased iron took care of it, but

Should I stop Ferrous Fumarate before Blood Test?
Hi, I was prescribed Ferrous Fumarate after my last bloods showed very low in ferritin levels (I'm Hashi's). I'm due my follow up routine blood test for thyroid levels and ferritin / iron next week. Do I need to stop taking the Ferrous Fumarate ahead of the blood test? Thanks so much

Macrocytic Anemia?
Hi, I am posting here for my Mom. She had blood work every year with perfect results until last year in September when the Hemoglobin/RBC/Hemocrit started dropping. She never had anemia before. In March of this year MCV and MCH started going up and be higher then normal. I took her to a hematologist

New to the group
I have had restless legs for 14 years I have been getting treatment from a neurologist. Started with Ropinerol cried the first time I took it because I didn't have any restlessness after the first dose. I didn't know much about it then. The doctor took some labs in the beginning iron was low so

RLS and changing meds
I have been on roprinerole xl (2mg and 4 mg) and the regular. Mostly I take the regular one because the insurance companies don't like to pay for the extended release. Right now, I cut a 4mg regular into 4 equal parts. I take two parts at night, so that's a 2 mg at bedtime and 1 and 1 earlier during

low ferritin/T3 capsules
hi everyone.. My ferritin test result is 24 (10-300) Nice guidelines say under 30 can have iron infusion? Should I push for that? I picked up my T3 prescription and was planning on splitting them but they are 10mcg capsules.Roma is the brand. I do have 2 boxes of the Greek brand from unipharma

Help with results and my doctor
HI I've been having challenges with my doctor, who won't listen to me despite some great articles and advice from this group. Back in November my TSH level was 4.83 (range 0.35 to 4.94) and T4 14.0 (range 9 - 19.05). I was on 50mg of levothyroxine for my UAT diagnosed in Sept 23. She refused to listen
