Night sweats etc.
I am tapering down from 30mg pred since April 2022 and I am now down to 3mg (4mg alternate days). I am finding I am having a lot of night sweats. Has anyone found else had this problem and if so how long it lasts for? I have to add that I have recently been diagnosed with osteoporosis, and didn't know

Staying on 5mg indefinitely.....
Forgive me if I've brought this up before but after my rheumatologist advised me that there are little or no side effects when on 7.5mg prednisolone providing one takes the right precautions - Calcium, Vit D supplements and healthy eating habits e.g. low or no sugar, low or no carbs, etc. I thought I

Experiment to switch from Metavive to levothyroxine
On 23rd September 2022 I started to gradually introduce levothyroxine and reduce Metavive until I was on only levo to see if I could manage on this alone. [see post Raising TSH from 11 months ago]. I had hoped to see if I converted T4 to T3 adequately but had to do it myself as my GP wouldn't help with

Blood test results
Could you help me make sense of these? 18 months ago my GP lowered my levothyroxine dose on the basis of a suppressed TSH. I got all the symptoms back. I did not have a blood test between Jan 2022 and a fortnight ago. I waited 15 months for this hospital appointment. The consultant wrote to me with

Graves Disease, Hyperthyroidism and Supplements
Hi All I used to have a lot of pain in my joints I think is because I was taking a lot of supplements. Supplements taken: vitamin D apple cider tablets turmeric calcium magnesium When I was diagnosed with Graves Disease and Hyperthyroidism I stop taking all supplements. The TSH reduced 50%

Weak Eggs. Causes. no blastos. WHY?
Does the protocol alter the quality of eggs? I got three eggs and two fertilised on my first cycle. My two eggs make it to day 5 blastocycts. (Though I was told they were ok on day 4) The cause was put down to age by the specialist. So gutting I am 39 and a half with FSH around 8 and AMH 2.2 I

Try naturally before starting norethisterone for new treatment cycle?
I am waiting to hear if my next cycle is going ahead based on AMH ans FSH levels and minimum NHS requirements. You must meet at least one. I do not meet AMH (minimum is 5 and mine is 2.2) My last FSH was 7.7 (in march)and the maximum for NHS treatment is 8.9. This is really nerve wracking. Bloods

Help with results please :)
Hi and thanks for reading in advance. I’ve recently had bloods done after a small increase in Levo and I’m not understanding why they are more raised since the increase. I have had a few things all going on at the same time for the last 2.5 years, menopause, vit D deficiency(now in range), B12 deficient

worst amh and fsh. So worried
I’m 39 and a half with recent amh reading of 1.8, fsh was 7 ( 6 months ago) and recent follicle count was 8. You need to make 2 out of three to qualify for nhs funding. So far follicle count is ok. I know amh won’t. fSh is key here. My last round was my first and a disaster ( don’t think medication

Advice again please
I have written about my reaction to B12 subcutaneous . I’ve tried 3 types latest one Pasco before Hervert and Panpharma . I react very strongly bright red patch about 2 inches by 1 inch and v itchy. This irritates all day despite eumovate which initially helped on leg but no longer. I usually do them
