Selenium
I h ave read on this site that selenium is recommended to help the conversion of T4 into T3 My doctor prescribed one 100mcg tablet per day I know that high levels of selenium are toxic. I'm therefore afraid to take the prescribed dosage on a regular basis lest it might accumulate in the body and cause

Raynaud's Awareness
This week I had to take part in a 3 day first aid course for work, and during the course we discussed the effects of heat and cold, so I thought that it would be the perfect opportunity to bring up Raynaud's, no one in the group had heard of it, (no surprise there) but whilst explaining it, the group

work and RA
I had a meeting with my boss yesterday, as I am first aider and mentioned that when I start my TNF treatment that I might need to be 'excused' from my duties when dealing with vomiting children. My job consists of 3 parts, first aid being one of them - I have not had any time off due to my condition

HIRSUTE OR NOT HIRSUTE - THAT IS THE QUESTION
Having read an interesting little blog about hair loss and the bad language it causes, got me to wondering. If bald men don't get so much as a second glance, why is it so bad for a woman to be bald? One day this will be the norm anyway as the centuries roll on. You only have to look back a few thousand

HAIR LOSS and METHATREXATE
I am on MTX injections (long term) and my hair is getting thinner by the week, I even have small patches where my hair is missing altogether. I'm wondering if this drug is causing it. Anyone else experiencing this and does anyone know how to combat the problem?

I want to work!
Hi everyone, I know its been a while! I do hope you are all OK! Well I have been struggling over the last few months with my new treatment, and at Christmas I really felt I had turned a corner. I had two weeks almost pain free - the longest time in 18 months!!! Anyway, my 12 week trail

What is the brand name of your URSO if you had the itch upon starting and how is your prescription for it written.
I can't help wondering what others are on for PBC medication-wise with regards to the URSO. I have the URDOX brand and my GP gives me a prescription with just Ursodeoxycholic Acid and the mgs/tabs per day. Have heard such a thing as generic drugs but not fully sure what that means and if so, are there

i am currently on methotrexate.
i have been taking methotrexate since november 2011 but i haven't noticed any benefits. I get more headaches, hair loss and so much more tired. Does this medication take longer to work?

Anyone else get really cold legs and feet (especially in the night)? Plus, do any of you get woken up with pins and needles in your hands?
I take warfarin, thyroxine and sotalol.
