My knees click crunch and creak every time I bend as do most of my

Excessive Sweating/Hyperhidrosis
Hi all. I'm from the UK. Can excessive sweating be a symptom of SS? I have heard it can be a part of the Autonomic Nervous System becoming dysfunctional. My thyroids and other hormones seem fine. I'm not diagnosed with SS but had ANA positive a few weeks ago and waiting to see GP but fear he will dismiss

Cns symptoms.
I am diagnosed officially as uctd, with positive ana (1:1280) and anti ro. They call it lupus mainly, the last few years I've been getting progressive Cns type symptoms. I was diagnosed with dystonic tremor in my left hand, but the tremor is progressing. I also have muscle weakness, early muscle failure

I just phoned my GP reception as hadn't received the email so she read it out and said there is a high degree of false positive for

Levothyroxine and St Johns wort
Has anyone ever tried to take St Johns wort when on Levothyroxine? Are there any adverse effects if I do so? I am currently on 50mcg Levo. If you do take it, how long do you wait after taking your levo to have the St Johns wort? Thanks, Emily

What is the treatment for central hypothyroidism?
Hi, I posted yesterday asking about a possible link between POTS and hypothyroidism as I was seeing the Endocrinologist. He hadn't heard of POTS before. But when he looked at my recent results, see below (currently on 45mg Erfa & 25mg Levo) he said that it seems more likely now that I have central hypothyroidism

Positive ANA test.
Hi all. My first post. I recently tested positive for Lupus. I have an appointment to see Rheumatologist in January. Is there any advice that anyone can give me please to help with my first appointment. We only have one shot to get it right. Should I start a diary of symptoms and flare ups? Would that
