Everything I am doing/not doing is wrong as it doesn't fit within her guidelines, which are reduce 1mg every

Albutrix made me feel more ill every day I took it.
Albutrix made me feel more ill every day I took it. At 17 days I really felt like I was dying, so I quit it and improved after a couple of day. About 5 days later I tried it again at two tablets a day, two days in a row, and again became very ill. About a week after that I learned that while taking Albutrix

Some supplements that have helped me a lot. Glutathione, berberine, and alpha lipoic acid.
I've had great results with reducing numbness and brain fog by taking Glutathione, berberine, and alpha lipoic acid. It's been a nice reduction in the neuropathy since taking these supplements. They all have effects that help with what we're going through here. You'd need to read up on any sort of

I want to thank those who took the time to reply to my request regarding alendronic acid. I stopped taking it and the mouth ulcers cleared up almost immediately. The pain in my hips and legs improved drastically but not disappeared which I was slightly disappointed! I emailed the ROS nurses and had

Pandemic woes and lost progress
Hello, Not sure how to start this so I'll guess I'll just start. 2019 was a golden year, lots of friends around, had a great dog, and a couple good flings, it was just a good time all around. However as the year came to an end, two friends moved out of the house, leaving my best friend, dog, cat, and

New Italian paper below. [1] Mark Moyad has been saying for many years that "Heart-healthy is prostate-healthy."

What dosage of calcium supplement is recommended when on prednisolone?
I'm on 7.5mg of prednisolone. At my rheumatologists appointment today I advised him that I wouldn't be taking up his recommendation of Alendronic Acid despite having a very small amount of osteoporosis in my lower lumber region. I advised him that I was taking Caltrate which has 600mg calcium/200 IU
