Fatigue

I had been having severe fatigue in early April. Thought my iron level was back up but was surprised to find out my Ferritin was 15 and my saturation was 28%.This had happened back in September as well.Before I received my most recent results, I...
TSH 6.9

0

Hi all,Diagnosed in 2007 when my TSH was around 4. Symptoms: cold intolerance, large amount of hair hair falling out daily, and severe brain fog.Long story short: TSH is now 6.9 but I feel great. In fact better than I have in a while. On Levoxyl 125...
HH and exercise

0

Despite the fact that I've been under treatment for HH since 1998, I never thought about the following until now.I've been bike riding between five and eight miles a day four or five times a week for the last three months (except for two weeks in...
odd veins

0

Since my TS% was 44%, I opted to be phlebbed (my doctor allows me to make the decision) even though my ferritin is 25.I have very bad veins and have had two ports and a PICC in the past but do not have either inplace now. Last Friday two nurses were...
HH rare in women?

0

My sister who is a carrier was told by a hematologist that a woman having HH is very rare (she was telling him about me because she is beginning to load iron. Her SF was over 250 I believe.) LOL I told her to tell the doctor it's not rare in women....

On Thursday I was getting phlebbed and I asked the nurse how many HH are treated there. She said it was over ten and then mentioned the latest patient who had a hemogloblin of 20 at diagnosis.I have never heard of someone having that high...

computers and iron overload

0

Not sure if I posted this before but has anyone had the experience that your comuter goes wacky when your iron level is high?Before I was diagnosed in 1998, my work computer would go wacky. Back in 1993, I was doing data entry but for some reason...
Getting a bad cold

0

On Christmas night, I came down with a really bad cold (sore throat, runny nose, cough.). Fortunately today there is some improvement.The cold took me by surprise because my iron saturation was 33% on Dec 2nd. Usually the TS% is higher (over 40%) if...
Adrenal fatigue support supplement question

0

Anyone else have adrenal fatigue and hypthyroidism besides me? I just started adrenal support which I picked up through a local compounding pharmacy. The pharmacist had recommended the supplement. It has mostly higher doses of vitamins plus ...
Age and serum ferritn level at diagnosis

0

I'm curious what the ages and serum ferritin levels were of the women on this group.I was 51 yrs old and my SF was 369. I believe I was post menopausal then. I was taking premarin (which I discontinued in 2000) at the time so that confuses the...
