Total hip replacement
Hi Everyone. Just wanting to know if anyone of you who have had a hip replacement went privately anywhere in Bedfordshire or very nearby. Any recomendations and experiences would be a great help. Also did any of you pay for just an initial consultation and they did it under NHS. Thanks cmjoyce

A paper on the approach to optimization of hypothyroid therapy including combination therapy.
This new paper (downloadable) examines the problem of trying to optimally prescribe thyroid hormones for hypothyroidism. It's very technical, but the conclusions may be of interest. It uses a modelling system to try to gain an insight into good prescribing. Front. Endocrinol., 24 June 2022 https:

Hot sweats - solution
Following on from my previous post applauding my marvellous Rheumy… She got me an appointment with an Endocrinologist this week, and he came up with an amazing solution for my hot sweats! (Sarcasm alert) Background: My GP stopped my HRT in 2019 when I was diagnosed with GCA and absolutely refuses

Wife's hip replacement
Wifey needs a new hip, something that at different ages, the recovery can be different, on other people. She's having it done privately, and info so far suggests in and out-same day. Would this be right. She will be sore after, so presume she'll be dosed up with painkillers. So, when does the pain

Wrong diagnosis?
Hi, Two weeks ago my GP called to do an unscheduled HRT annual review. I’m 50, not on other meds and quite fit. She said feeling sluggish was normal for folk with Hyperthyroidism, I nearly fell over in shock! Apparently I’ve had hyperthyroidism since 2014 which was diagnosed by 5 annual tests of undetected

Flare after surgery
Any advice please? I had a hip replacement 5 weeks ago and was jogging along OK but then decided I probably needed a new mattress, as I woke up barely unable to get out of bed in the morning because my hips/back were so stiff and painful. It took me some days to realise it might be a PMR flare.

hypothyroid following partial thyroidectomy. Question about HRT and optimum T4 levels.
Dear forum, I am 58. 3 months ago while having parathyroid adenoma removed, I also had partial thyroidectomy. This was because thyroid nodule was discovered during scans looking for the adenoma. The nodule was examined and contained micropapliiary carcinoma. No further treatment needed for that thankfully

Looking for recommendations for functional doctor in UK competent with adrenal fatigue, subclinical hypothyroid, HPA axis, digestion
hello, I live in France and cannot get the kind of up to date help I need here, apart from a naturopath who advises on supplements. Apart from getting my nodules scanned and biopsied my GP is not interested. I need to consult with someone remotely in English and do all the tests they need by post

Possibility of hip replacement anytime soon ?
My reason for writing this is to ask if anyone has been in a similar situation during the past couple of years and had any offer of a hip
replacement
( or any other
joint
replacement
) in the near future . I’ve read all the media stories of elective surgery having to wait for a couple of years .

bad RLS, recent hip replacement
Dear all, I am a caregiver to my mother (65 yo) who suffers from RLS, and I am so excited to have found this community! It actually makes me both happy and sad, happy because this is the place where everyone understands what a nightmare RLS is, and of course very sad that many are suffering like my mother

Advice on talking to GP
Hello All I'm new here and looking for some help. I have all the symptoms of an underactive thyroid but according to my GP my thyroid is perfect! I had some private blood tests done as I can't access the ones at my GP surgery at the moment. Results were as follows: TSH 5mU/L (range 0.27 - 4.2); FT3
