Adrenalin rushes in?
I've had a few weeks where I the daily flushing/nausea/shaking episodes had eased off. But this week, they seemed to be returning. This afternoon, I had a dramatic demonstration that they must surely be related to adrenal dysfunction. The morning had been ordinary, with me simply pacing myself through

Polymyalgia/Schnitzler Syndrome
2 years ago diagnosis was PMR. A year later I have this rash and find I have Schnitzler Syndrome. Added image just in case anyone else expieriences it. Or I have both. I am beginning to think both for an injection I get monthly, Canakinumab should take care of my range of motion and muscle issues

Hair loss due to prednison
Hi all, I am new here. I am an 48 year old Dutch woman and I was diagnosed with PMR in February 2017. I was wandering if anyone here also has hair loss as a side effect of the prednisone and at what dose your hair became normal again. I am loosing a lot of hair since this summer and no shampoo for hair

Trametinab Diaries
Some of you may remember I posted a few weeks ago that I was on a break from the trial drug trametinab for recurrent low grade serous ovarian cancer. I had been taken off the trial because my echocardiogram had revealed that my ejection fraction had dropped from 60% to about 50%. I was off the trial

Please help reading U.S. results for a friend
Hello all, I would like some help reading a friend’s TSH as she’s taking 0.112g of Tirosint and 5mcg Cytomel. I think she’s being ripped off by paying $700 a month. She was diagnosed 10 years ago. She thinks her supplements are perfect as she’s been prescribed by a doctor but she mentioned ‘multi vitamins

Heart issues
Can anyone tell me if they have heart issues related to underactive thyroid? I was undiagnosed for around 15 years. After being treated, not effectively for 8 years I now appear to have been diagnosed with aortic stenosis. Anyone have similar issues?

Sleep aid
I tried Ashwagandha and 3 mg time release melatonin taking Ashwagandha 400 mg at 8 pm (I take Azilect 1 mg 8 am) and melatonin at 10 pm. Instead of sleeping through TV I felt social and talkative not a bit anxious and sleep was restful and restorative. But next day found that after taking 5 mg Isradapine

Myo-inositol and folic acid
I had my consultation with a gynaecologist on Friday and he said that some of the tests were "suggestive" of PCOS that were just on the border, like, 3.97 instead of 4, and then some were normal, and that based on that he couldn't diagnose PCOS but agreed that I show all the symptoms and advised me to

Non-responder stopped taking UCDA/Urso
Hi, I’ve been told I’m a non-responder to ucda after taking it for 13 yrs! My LFTs have progressively worsened in stages with plateaus in between. I’ve recently stopped taking the ucda since I’m a bit despondent and don’t see the point taking it. I do feel worse but my symptoms have been worsening and

Gabapentin
Hi all, I'm new to this forum but have had restless legs for over 30 years. I've never seen my doctor about it because I try to keep off drugs. For the past 5 years or so I have been using spatone iron and that has generally kept it at bay. That is until i went on omeprazole. At first I was ok but

Hypothyroidism and complications?
I'm a new member. I've just had my thyroxine increased after scans showed my pituitary gland is very enlarged and pressing on my brain and my TSH levels are totally out of control. I also have a growth in the centre of my brain which could be a pineal cyst or something worse also creating pressure on

In my belief this is what caused my RLS!
For many years I was taking codeine for pain. After I got hooked on it the codeine took over my body. I finally got off them about 2 years ago and ever since I have gained RLS. I sleep maybe an hour a night if I'm lucky. I don't really have triggers they ache every night. I started smoking pot before

Went to Dr today
So, after being diagnosed PBC/AIH overlap syndrome, my GI put me on prednisone (10mg long term) along with the Urso and Atarax. My last blood tests on Monday showed my levels elevated but still dropping. My bilirubin is at 6.9 now. Saw my PC this morning and asked him if he could see my liver biopsy.

I'm new - worried about auto-immune hepatitis
Hi everyone A month ago I went for a routine blood test which found my liver functioning was abnormal. My GP and hepatologist confirmed it is not any form of hepatitis or glandular fever, which they originally thought it would be. Given that my mother has rheumatoid arthritis, they are now testing
