Avatar f tn wow, well you learn something new everyday, i was totally unaware there was a test to check levels of Serotonin. I thought it was one of those things the doc's couldn't measure. Is this test on the NHS in England by any chance?
Avatar n tn I was unconcerned about the chances of HIV until I was told about fake condoms being used in some areas. I had a test at an NHS gum clinic at just over 6 weeks after which came back negative. I am unsure however if I need further testing as I dont know what type of test was used. Can I take this result at conclusive? What is the standard NHS test used?
Avatar f tn At the age of 19, I had a bout of depression and was given and short course of tablets. When asking about counselling for the OCD, anxiety and depression, I was told, "sorry we don't provide it". 18 months later I feel overloaded with rituals and anxiety. I lie in bed for as long as I can until I have no option but to get up and start the exhausting day all over again.

Avatar m tn I plan to take a HIV test, but the stuff in NHS G.U.M clinic told me that the test result should be known two weeks after test; so I want to seek another similar organization that could also provide HIV test besides NHS,but can give the result faster than NHS, do any British friends know about "Better2know"??? Is it qualified to offer HIV test as a private clinic? Is it authoried by UK government?

Avatar f tn Hi all. Please help. I took a HIV test in Dec 2015 at a NHS walk in service in the UK. Was negative. However just reading that there are different types and strains of HIV. Now concerned my test did not test for all possible strains. I have no idea what type of test was taken, only that my blood was taken from my arm and sent off. Really worried about the possibility I was not tested for all strains. Please advise. Thank you.
Avatar f tn Okay so I've had issues with depression way before becoming pregnant. And now being pregnant I of course cannot take my meds. Has anyone else dealt with depression issues before/during pregnancy? No certain reason behind them, just depressed. And does it usually cause you to be more at risk for post partum depression? How can I deal with this easier? Now and once my little man is here?
Avatar f tn t even heard of it until this pregnancy! I read on the nhs website that they only test/treat women at risk. Have any UK ladies been tested? I'm scared as keep reading stuff about it!!
Avatar f tn Dr. Barnes Basal Temperature Test. Just look it up and follow the online instructions precisely). Your thyroxine, may be too low, not effective or worse very damaging (in the event you have high reverse T3 levels, since it is mainly T4, which in turn would be converting to reverse T3, thus lowering your bioavailable T3 (free T3) further! NHS unfortunately is not going to be very co-operative in pursuing all this.
Avatar m tn d get a few week and they would be completely debilitating. After a few visits to the GP, I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression and given sertraline as he thought the migraines were due to stress. I was doubtful, but it significantly reduced the amount of migraines I would get - down to 1 or 2 a month. However, in march 2017 I developed a persistent headache. Some days it would be mild (around 2 or 3/10 pain score).
Avatar n tn Hi I am from the UK but currently live in the US so know how both systems work. I would recommend seeing the specialist privately in the UK. It's usually not too expensive and you can be seen within days. For something like your eyes, this is a good investment believe me. In the US, you can see whoever you want......but believe me also when I tell you the bills are scary. Even with insurance! Don't hate on the NHS just yet.
539694 tn?1434565947 Yes it does to me and though the cause of it may be a bit different (and still under study) when depression is at extreme people can feel incapable of any action or many normal feelings at all but as things improve a bit and people have the ability to act at all they can become suicidal and that is the time of most concern. If you feel that way its best to speak to a psychiatrist immediately and if you feel in any way you would act on those thoughts go to a hospital where you would be safe.
