#1: The Start
Following the example of Clarebear I've decided to document my thyroid-adrenal journey on here in hopes it'll keep me accountable, and also may serve some after me. After a long, complicated history of no diagnosis, followed by lithium treatment, then prolonged time spent on T4 with no improvement,

Remedies for low stomach acid
Hello.This is a follow up on a previous question. I did the baking soda test this morning to see if I had low stomach acid. I didn't belch at all so I guess that could suggest that I'm low !! I thought I would try some Betaine HCI with pepsin as that is quite often recommended. I asked my naturopath

Constipation
Hi helpful community. I am on 40 mg or prednisone for CGA, tapering down to 35 in 2 days for 2 weeks. I am suffering from constipation. Is it due to the prednisone or the Calcium supplements (600 mg x 2 per day)? I take Miralax (Restorolax) every couple of days. then I take mineral oil for couple

Pain won't stop
Hi all, it's been assumed that I'm struggling with IBS for around 6 weeks. I've tried buscopan forte with no ease. Last Friday I started Mebeverine hydrochloride 3 times a day, it's not helping! For 6 weeks I have pretty much been stuck in the fetal position with servere cramping pain that I'm comparing

IBS and possible prolapse in bowel
Hi all, I have been diagnosed with IBS and Diverticulitis. Pregablin medication seems to be helping. When I recently explained to the GP that every day I am in discomfort from my bowel and despite me having bowel movements on a daily basis that within 30-45 mins after I feel I need to have another bowel

Info onActemra
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with GCA Dec 21 and put on 65mg Pred. Then March 22 I started Actemra weekly injections. I have been very fortunate so far as I tapered and stopped Pred in Dec 22 but still taking Actemra shots - fortnightly now. My question is how long have others had to take Actemra

Typewriter tinnitus or Middle Ear Myoclonus?
Hi all, I had a clicking start in my left ear 5 months ago. At first it was just a click, and there was a feeling to it too. At times it could sting my ear. Then one night, I got a bombardment of lighter clicks in the ear, that went on for a near minute. Over time the these clicks have become more frequent

I am not sure if I have IBS?
There are some symptoms that completely matches with IBS, like- abdominal pain, extreme flatulence, constipation, stomach noises, always having the urge to move bowels. But doctors never could diagnose anything, told me that the body would cure itself since I'm young. I have done ultrasonography, endoscopy

Microscopic colitis associated with RA
Well the colonoscopy didn't happen two weeks ago due to having to give up a non RA medication I was too ill to go. Update it's next week and I can stay on the medication until the day of the colonoscopy. A biopsy is needed to confirm MC and then the treatment of steroids. You may wonder why I'm telling

tramadol
I was on tramadol for at least 10 years----100 mg. then my doc took me off because a neurologist put me on Clonazepam for REM/SBD (rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder.) But I was also getting cervical and lumbar rhizotomies...and still do every 12-14 months or so. I am now working with the VA

Dave Barry: A journey into my colon - and yours
A plagiarised version of an article by Dave Barry, published in the Miami Herald in 2008, appeared in one of my newsfeeds recently. I thought I'd share it here, as the message for 50-74 year-olds: [i]
screen yourself for colorectal cancer
[/i], is as relevant today as it was fifteen years ago.

Diarrhea every day

Also I will get random stomach pain at time and have diarrhea and after using the bathroom I will feel better. My grandfather passed of colon cancer and

1 colonoscopy + 1 sigmoidoscopy in 3 years; symptoms persist
In the past three years I’ve had a colonoscopy (July 2020) that was clear and a sigmoidoscopy a year later in May 2021 that found small internal hemorrhoids and a hypertrophic anal papillae (benign). However, my symptoms of rectal bleeding, some rectal pain, and intermittent constipation have persisted

DVLA licence renewal
Two years ago I had to inform the DVLA that I had developed glaucoma in both eyes. It was a very stressful time as I had a trabeculectomy, corrective surgery and cataract removal before embarking on the vision test. The Specsavers team was very helpful in deferring my test until I felt ready to take
