HRT and RLS
Hi, I just saw a reply on a post where Sue talked about HRT being a possible trigger. Are there any safe options? I am currently on Femeton and have just been put on a higher dose because of menopause symptoms. I’m wondering now if this is part of the problem. I would probably be suicidal if I

Starting B12 injections
Hi I am hypothyroid, on Armour Thyroid but still dog tired all the time. I’m on HRT and I have horrible peripheral neuropathy in my feet and lower legs. I can’t walk well or for long at all. My gait feels really off. I’m stiff and have no muscular strength in my legs anymore so crouching down is impossible

HRT & RA experiences
hi, I’m wondering if there are others who have experience of RA improvement with HRT. My RA is relatively well managed.. one year in.. have a love / hate relationship with methotrexate (many other posts on this!), but am generally tolerating it better. I am having noticeable flares when I ovulate

Sorry for passing this on? Genetic Osteoarthritis? but trying to get to relevant 'audience'?
A condition passed through my mother's side of the family, my mother had it in her hands, she was an excellent sculptor, painter, etc, it affected her hands, very sore, I was living at home with my parents, the last of five children, unfortunately I have epilepsy [disabled all my life] I was on Topamax

Had my REMS scan today
Excellent session and good news - REMS shows that I don’t have osteoporosis even though DXA says I did! I am osteopenic which is what I suspected and why I wanted the scan. Advice was to manage with diet and exercise which I am all in favour of and no intention of ever going on the drugs. Dr was very

"Your thyroid's fine"...what do you think?
Hi. I've been told by a GP that my thyroid is fine. I don't think it is. I'd be grateful for your opinions. Like many others here, I'm fed up with Dr.s saying it's my age, the menopause, or there's nothing wrong. Medichecks results: May 23 Thyroglobulin Antibodies: 423.000 kIU/L (Range: <115

Advice on halting bone loss following Dexa and hrt or other supplements.
Thyroid cancer at 23, high dose T4 requiring propranolol for 17 years, then battles over dosage post menopause as rules changed. T3, when measured, always seemed to be at a good level. I didn't take HRT as it was at the height of the cancer scare. I regret it now. Sjogrens and very low vitamin D diagnosed

good morning 😊 I came home yesterday after a mitral valve repair on Monday. I’ve only just read through all my discharge letters, as I was not ready to plough through it all yesterday. They explained to me I had to take aspirin every day now for the rest of my life, in the letter they say it’s for

Thyroid and the Menstrual Cycle?
When I was first diagnosed with Graves diseases my periods had practically stopped. I had no period for almost a year thinking the menopause was to blame. I started Carbimazole and reacted badly to it and had Rai. Soon after I started Levo. My periods have often been on the heavy side, but after having

query about pred and surgery
I am having a total hip replacement later this month, and had my pre-op assessment this week. After some deliberation the nurse told me that I should not take my pred the morning of my op (my admission time is 11am, I presume for an afternoon surgery). I will see both the surgeon and the anaesthetist

Sourcing Thybon Henning
Hi everyone. I've been a member since February 2022 and read the great info every day but this is my first post asking for help. I've been taking 40mcg of Thybon Henning 20 on NHS prescription since 2016, with only a couple of supply issues during Brexit. However, the pharmacist rang me last month and
