Being very health concious myself, I was shocked when I went to the doctor the other day for my annual MOT, she took some bloodsamples, and not only did she discover that my TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) levels were 54.7...should be about 0.8 ( so I am now on 100mcg of Thyroxine daily), but also found that my total cholesterol count is 7.2!!! I went back for a proper fasting lipogram to find out what the ratio between HDL and LDL is. Seems as if all the screws are falling off!!
I feel very sorry for you guys with stomach problems, I do not think there is anything as bad as constant stomach pain and or heartburn. Hope you get sorted!
