best anesthesia for knee replacement surgery ?
Greetings… I experienced my first struggle with daily RLS after 2 emergency gallbladder surgeries in 2021. My RLS lasted 10-12 horrible months post op… a short time still I’m aware, relative to the experience of so many sufferers on this forum. Apparently I am one of the lucky ones for whom only daily

Timings of NDT and iron supplements
Hi all, I'm struggling to maintain ferritin levels whilst also trying to adhere to the timings of iron supplements around my NDT and other vitamins. My ferritin is rarely higher than 20s (in the last ten years the highest it has been was 52 just once). I've been on NDT for a year and am gradually

Pulsatile tinnitus
Hi there. Does anyone else have pulsatile T. Mostly it comes and goes, always one-sided as the T is that side. I can make it go away by turning my head to the opposite side. But when i turn it back the T comes back. Shrugging my shoulders helps as well as stretching my neck. Have spoken to the doctor

Turmeric
I have been amazed at the effect taking turmeric has had on the amount of pain I experience in my hands and how quickly this has happened. (Yes, I know about the placebo effect!) I would recommend anyone to try it (providing they check with their haems/doctors first). I take 2 capsules of turmeric extract

Struggling to bring down blood sugars
Hi Friends, As some of you know I've been on a journey and taking T3 was the real game changer. I am under the care of a fantastic private Endo. I've included my thyroid and sugar results in this post. My insulin is elevated indicating insulin resistance. All tests are done fasting and no meds

Apixaban side effects/adverse reactions
Many months ago, I tried Rivaroxaban but found it affects my ability to focus my eyes. Switched to Apixaban and that has seemed OK. However, two things have happened. I had a neurological assessment which found almost zero reflexes in my arms. And my feet have become very dry and are starting to become

Roflumilast/Daxas
Dear all, I just wanted to let all of you with severe COPD that I was given the opportunity last year, March 2022 to start this medication, Roflimilast. I had to request the outpatient appointment to be able to bring the possibility of being prescribed it. HealthUnlocked It wasn’t even mentioned to me

b12 purchase
Hi I was treated by GP for low B12 for a year but once my levels were midway on “normal range” the injections were discontinued and I struggle to find ways to boost my intake orally. I have just purchased Hydroxocobalamin online but am unsure if the dosage is similar to that I was previously prescribed

inflammation in eyes
I have an inflammatory eye condition either episcleritis or anterior uveitis. I’ve been on steroid drops for this which have given me cataract. On top of this inhave 2 stoma bags for a perforated bowel ( which triggered the eye inflammation). It’s been a horrendous time and I’ve become very down.

Gastric endo - help!
I haven’t posted in the longest time but really need some help. I have extensive disease requiring surgery, thought to be bowel involvement. MRI due in the next week. I’ve been having dreadful constipation the last few weeks requiring manual evacuation (sorry TMI but it has been awful). Then two days

Anyone tried PIP Apixiban, post-ablation?
Hello I am now almost 5 months post-ablation and doing well with no AF/flutters since, and have resumed moderate trail running, cycling etc feeling great. I was taken off all medications except apixiban. I had assumed I would take it for life, but a week ago had to stop it completely due to worsening

Post ablation tubal sterilisation syndrome (PATTS)
Has anyone else had both of these surgeries and gone on to have excruciating pain? During my surgery they found endometriosis and I've since had an MRI and CT scan (as well as lots of useless ultrasounds that find nothing). I've been diagnosed with deep infiltrating endo on ovaries, peritoneum and bowel

Any insight into # platinum chemo cycles?
So I'm about to start cisplatinum + etoposide chemo cycles on wed. next week for NECP/SCCP. The first irritant I have of which I'm sure will not be the only one is: I have no idea what the treatment plan is, I don't know how many cycles I'm scheduled for and what the treatment goal is. Researching

Suspected IBS
I've had IBS symptoms for about 15 years. At first I thought it was intolerance to a few foods, and cutting those out seemed to help. But the symptoms seem to get worse and more frequent as I age. I am now 42 and get scared to go out to eat or be in the office all day (thankfully I WFH 4 days a week)

Recurrent bladder irritation
Since my horrific experience of urinary sepsis I am understandably concerned that it could return, to that end I am neurotically testing it with a dip stick. No infection as yet however I am not convinced that the bladder sedative I was prescribed Solifenacin 5mgs, is doing anything. Does anyone else
