One of the most common causes for high iron in the blood is a genetic condition called Hemachromatosis. Taking too many iron supplements can also be a common cause of high blood levels.
I think virgin oil from coconut ... they must avoid drinks containing aspartame..drinking tap water with flouride helps regulate the presence of iodine.
The facts supprting this premise are inconclusive according to search engine results.
A heart rate of 60 beats per minute is considered within the normal range for healthy adults.
It depends on what your normal heart rate is and where you are in your treatment (that is, how hyperthyroid are you? What are your FT3 levels?) 60 beats per minute sounds like a good thing to me.
Nail abnormalities are problems with the color, shape, texture, or thickness of the fingernails or toenails.
Alternative NamesBeau's lines; Fingernail abnormalities; Spoon nails; Onycholysis; Leukonychia; Koilonychia; Brittle nails
ConsiderationsJust like the skin, the fingernails tell a lot about your health.

Call your health care provider if you have:
If you have splinter hemorrhages, see the doctor immediately.
What to expect at your health care provider's officeThe health care provider will look at your nails and ask questions about your symptoms. Questions may include:
Diagnostic tests will depend on what other symptoms, if any, exist. These may include x-rays, blood tests, or examination of parts of the nail in the laboratory.
PreventionUsing the vitamin biotin and clear nail polish that contains protein can help strengthen your nails.
T4 is storage hormone and is inactive. It is converted to T3, which is the active form of the hormone that your cells use. The tests FT3 and FT4 tell how much of the hormone is in your blood, unbound to other proteins and hormones so they can be converted or utilized by the body. TSH is the hormone from your pituitary gland near your brain that tells your thyroid to produce more hormone.
A low FT4 and FT3 will result in an elevated TSH, indicating hypothyroidism - your thyroid isn't producing enough thyroid hormone.
A high FT4 and FT3 will result in a decreased TSH, indicating hyperthyroidism - your thyroid is producing too much thyroid hormone.
Normal levels of FT3 and FT4 may indicate several issues, including a problem with the pituitary gland itself; or a change in thyroid supplementation and testing that has occurred before TSH levels have had an opportunity to reflect those changes.
TT3 and TT4 are no longer considered accurate testing for determination of a diagnosis or treatment for thyroid conditions, as it measures the available hormone as well as the bound/inactive hormone.
There are other causes of thyroid and pituitary hormonal abnormalities, but an endocrinologist will know the correct tests to use to determine a diagnosis and potential treatment for abnormalities that are found.
A TSH of 8.7 can be indicative of several diseases/disorders depending upon other lab and imaging results and impressions. The most common condition would be hypOthyroidism. What has caused the hypothyroidism would then be the next question.
Yes it does. Experiment by standing upright with your feet together looking straight in front of you keep standing up straight then note how much harder it is with your eyes closed. Then do the same again standing on only one leg.
Between T3 and T4, T3 is the bioavailable form of the hormone which the body is able to actively utilize to control metabolism. T4 is only storage hormone, making it a less reliable predictor of current metabolic functions since it must first be converted. Some patients are unable to convert T4 to T3 effectively. Totals are less reliable than Frees however, so between the two hormones, the most reliable hormone to test is Free T3, not Total T3. That said, diagnosing thyroid dysfunction requires multiple tests for appropriate diagnosis, since the overall impression is most important in the diagnostic process, not a single hormone.
There are many symptoms (also note that they are the same as anxiety and stress): raised heart rate, palpitations depending on how high your levels are, rapid weight loss, edginess, tiredness even though you feel energetic, unable to sleep, increased sweating, tremors and thirst. You should cut down on your caffiene intake because that also speeds up your heart rate and know that all these symptoms are normal and that everything will be okay. Because of the rapid heart rate you may start to feel anxious a lot so if you do please talk to some one about it.
It is estimated that 28 of every 100,000 people in the United States will develop hyperparathyroidism each year
