Prednisone and Muscles
A concern stemming from the very few questions I was able to successfully ask of the new to me Rheumatologist without being sssshhh'd.... She ordered a Muscle Enzyme Creatine Kinase lab test be performed, as did my GP a month earlier and after comparing the results, it had dropped significantly from

Blood work
Hello all-just looked at my blood tests and sed rate is 11, creatine kinase is 50. Are these the correct tests? And are they showing elevated results? I know some of you have said the Pred could mask results.

PMR and CK
( creatine kinase blood
test
which shows muscle damage).My
CK
is only mildly elevated now. It is said that CK is NOT elevated with PMR. My question: has anyone had mildly elevated CK with their PMR? Because it does seem possible my pain might be PMR. Any comments appreciated.

Elevated Creatine Kinase (CK) on blood tests
I am due to see orthopaedic end of aug, but in a meantime did some blood
test
privately and my
CK
results came elevated CK 329 (ref range 26-140) result as at 14 Jul I am seeing a doctor separately for my hormones and she suggested that this may indicate Myositis, which upon researching, it seems

Cirrhosis but no change in bloodwork
Diagnosed with fatty liver 10 years ago. Recently had a CT done for kidney stones and it showed Nodular liver. I was shocked. The weird part is my blood tests over the last 10 years always came back normal or just slightly elevated AST/ALT so doctors never thought there was a problem. Even now my standard

GP insisting on using CRP & ESR as inflammatory markers...and managing to get a creatine kinase blood test ordered...legs are still an issue
Hello I was called in to my GP surgery yesterday, by one of the GPs, the letter indicating it was for a medication review. She's not one of the GPs I prefer to see, she can be a little vague etc. But we ended up going through my meds and she asked about steroids being on my repeat....I said that although

T4 not being increased by GP
Hi everyone hope you are all doing g good and still fighting for your health! Following on from my previous post. A new GP in my practise wouldn’t increase my levo to 100mcg until she had the go ahead from endocrinology. They have decided that I am adequately medicated and won’t increase due to heart

Conversion
Hi I'm trying to make sense of something I'm reading. Does something know how to convert between nanogrammes and picomoles of T4? Best wishes H

Multiple Iron Infusions.
I had an iron infusion two years ago for RLS. Before the infusion my ferritin was down to about 100 and it rose to about 350 Unfortunately my RLS didn't respond to this and I couldn't detect any improvement over the next 12 months. My ferritin decreased over 2 years to 200 and then gradually

I think T3 should be available in the cleaning products aisle!
Small increase and I turn into a cleaning demon! All the jobs that get put off like window cleaning get tackled which leads to other things getting it too 🪟🪣🧹 😁

”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

Side effects on combination therapy : thyroxine and T3
I have been on combination therapy for about 7 weeks. I have noticed I am quite breathless and this looks like it can be related but unusual. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Another adjustment
Ok, so my table needed to first :-) not sure how to move it down, but please read below... First, thanks for this great community. I have benefited from lots of wisdom and experience over the past three years. Last year my endo freaked when my TSH was low. I attempted to stand up for myself, but
