My mum is 51 has always suffered with extremely heavy periods and as she has gotten older this has gotten significantly worse. After being put on iron tablets and tranexamic acid by the GP with not much relief she was referred to a gynaecologist. The gynaecologist examined her and said her uterus

imuran
I have been on Imuran 50mg for over 3 years and will be on it another 2 for autoimmune hepatitis. I also have PBC and take ursodiol for that. Imuran has lowered my liver levels and has kept them stable for me. It suppresses your immune system but it’s manageable. My dr is hoping that after being on it

Advice on Results Please
Hello, I've been trying to find my sweet spot since starting HRT and discovering I was undermedicated. I've just had my latest test results back although I keep having issues with the blood samples for Medichecks so some tests have been redone and other are missing. Anyone else have issues with this

I have osteoporosis and have incurred several spinal fractures
I am now being asked to take alendronic acid and I’m a little scared. This seems to have so many severe side effects. Does anyone have any advice on this?

Joint issues
Hi all, first post here. I have been experiencing ongoing, worsening joint symptoms - soreness, stiffness, grating and grinding sensations, weakness, mild pain in various joints - outer elbow, base of thumbs, wrists, neck and knees. I first saw a Rheumatologist in 2015 and was diagnosed with joint hypermobility

should I be concerned about skincare products while pregnant?
I’m 11 weeks pregnant and have been using my usual skincare products. They are over the counter and geared towards acne so have salicylic acid. My doctor said to send a list of the ingredients which I did and she’s responded to say there’s evidence that they’re safe in pregnancy so to stop using

Hashimoto's, levothyroxine intolerance. Help please anyone?
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in February 2021, following a routine blood test, and put on 25mcg levothyroxine and was fine. In June 2021 my dose was increased to 50mcg. Again, I thought I was fine, although in hindsight, I think I may have been having side effects, but due to working etc missed

it took me two weeks to taper from lexapro to Cymbalta. I've now been on Cymbalta since 10.14.22 (2 weeks) at 60. I'm also on lithium. I have had very weird side effects. It was very hard for me to sleep. Sometimes 3 or 4 hours,sometimes up all night. We kept switching Cymbalta from day to night and

update on my post about my colonoscopy on August 6th while on 3.5mg of Prednisolone.
Hi all, I’m sure I had very little sedation because I felt so much pain during the colonoscopy that I thought they’d forgotten to give me any. Only one polyp & 2 biopsies were removed & it felt like I was awake during the whole procedure, which I wasn’t as it took 40 minutes. I even felt the scope

Pain and stiffness - menopause or something else?
Hi. I was put on pred, mycophenolate and alendronic acid for 2 years in 2008 after several strokes and many tests which concluded in a diagnosis of primary (cerebral) vasculitis.

Interesting discussion on supplements from ZOE
Here is a podcast or transcript of it that others may find useful in deciding what to spend their precious pennies on after an expert discusses large, long range studies. For those who have neither the time nor the brain today, it was a thumbs up to a multivitamin, vitamin D (not large doses!), omega

Second Prostap injection
Hi, I had my second 3 month Prostap injection 4 weeks ago and I’ve been bleeding heavily with clots since having it… it took 6 weeks for the bleeding to stop when I had the first one, then I had a few weeks of no bleeding which was lovely, I started spotting two weeks before my second was due but assumed

Omega 3
Hi all, hope everyone is feeling well. My husband has CLL and has been taking Ibrutinib for 3-years. I just wondered if Omega 3 is something you can take with CLL or should it be avoided? I have read a lot about it’s benefits, but not sure if it’s suitable for people with CLL. Many thanks
