Sjogren's and eyes
I suffer with sjogren's and have been seen by many eye Dr's at my local hospital that is Addenbrooke's Cambridge. The last Dr I saw told me I had tried everything I could try. My eye's have been reasonably good on very calm days but a windy day upsets them and now the colder weather. The thought

accidental overdose of thyroxine
I’m on 100 mcg thyroxine and the kart prescription they only had 25 mcg so I was taking 4 tablets a day and then the recent prescription was 100 mcg. I’ve just realised today that I’ve been taking 4 100 mcg a day I think for 4 days from how many are gone. In a bit of a panic. I’ve rang 111 and they called

Saw eye dr today for yearly visit
And when I was reading the lines when she askes which is better, which is worse, I couldn't make out the bottom line because it was so blurry. Turns out, I have early cattaracts that are right in my line of vision. I will eventually need cataract removal surgery. I am in my mid 40s. The eye dr said

Any help on my issue would be great
Years and years ago I was very very over weight hmm 26 stone .. I used to have a lot of issues with jar and ear pain, first the doctor thought it might be a dental problem so I had to get my teeth investigated and it wasn't so I was put on medication for nerve damage with some investigations via ENT

Monopost and Hydrosan
I have OHT and have been using Monopost for several months. I have been using Vaseline around my eyes but they now have a sunken appearance and dark circles. My eyes are dry overnight and in the morning after using the drops. I have recently suffered with a sore eye and ear infection after using Hydrosan

nexplanon implant removal

Been to my specialist who recommended that I have my implant out and reset my body completely then see about another form of contraceptive control in 3-6 months. Just had my implant removed today. Wondering how long it might

Neuroendocrine PCa
Hi, My father was diagnosed with neuroendocrine in the liver mets. After 6 rounds of doxitacel, enzulamite and degarelix. The doctor has said chemo + immunotherapy. And given us 9-12 months. Is that really it ?

hi all, creeping up to 1 year since my TBI. I stayed in hosp for 4 days before being discharged but despite this my TBI was classed as ‘severe’. I am lucky in the sense of I seem to have recovered really well. I don’t have any symptoms anymore apart from the odd BPPV spell which I fix with the epley.

D Mannose
Hello everyone Just wondered if anyone here has used D Mannose tablets to manage recurrent urinary tract infections and if so with what success? I’ve had this problem for a few years now and the Urologist suggested daily low dose antibiotics which I want to avoid. Despite trying all of the self

Dry eyes
Hi helpful warriors I am on 35 mg of pred for next 2 weeks, then tapering to 30. Does pred cause dry eyes? ( did have cataract removal surgery in June of 2023.) Since diagnosis of GCA in late July 2023 I have had very dry eyes. I am on Thealoz Duo drops (3% Trehalose, 0.15 Sodium Hyaluronate).

My IBS Team Sheet – 2. Haemorrhoids (How I manage)
I think that having experienced having Haemorrhoids about six years ago that led me to be diagnosed with IBS, the relationship between IBS and Haemorrhoids could be a bit of a Red Herring! To be fair, I have experienced having haemorrhoids once since my first diagnosis, but now that I exercise regular
