Clear glasses for dry eyes
I have exceptionally dry eyes caused by long term use of Cosopt and Monopost for glaucoma. I also use prescribed Carmellose sodium eye drops 1% eight times daily and HyLo night ointment. I have had three corneal ulcers and one onset of marginal keratitis in the last 19 months. (I am attending hospital

Alendronic Acid
My liver guy has prescribed Alendronic Acid following my DEXA scan. I'm pissed off as I really thought I had calcium covered. I'm a fussy vegetarian that practically lives off cheese on toast and milkshakes ! Most of the stuff I've read on the web refers to osteoporosis in menopausal women, so I'm looking

Alendronate (alendronic acid)
We've heard that some people are having problems getting alendronic acid 70mg tablets. This is because some companies that make these tablets have run out of stock. This shortage may last until September 2022.
If you usually take alendronate tablets
If you can't get your usual tablets, speak

Best blood values
Already learned a lot in this forum and from other sources about optimal blood values for Vit D and B12. Just wonder if similar recommendations exist for zinc, selenium, iodine, iron and omega 3 and 6? I’m on WFPBD, take some supplements and check my blood values every three months, some more expensive

Massive anxiety flare just before period is about to start because I am soo worried about the pain.
So I have suffered with Endo and Adeno symptoms for like past 15/16 years and unfortunately am no stranger to being in pain because of it. However, over the last few months / periods, the pain has become soo much worse...which I didn't even think was possible. (I'm not sure if it is because of taking

Methionine Restriction
Overview
"In 1959, one of the early studies conducted in methionine restriction evaluated several outcomes produced from diets lacking specific
amino
acids
. The study was conducted on rats fed isocaloric diets that were complete in all
amino
acids
or devoid of one essential
amino
acid.

B12/Folate
In the mean time, I took electrolytes, magnesium, iron, D, ammonia reducing
amino
acids
, etc. I noticed B1 made a significant different. Then I added in methyl B vitamin complex (again), and I improved even more. A couple months ago, I added 3,000mcg Adeno/Hydroxo B12 and 800mcg folate.
