My 90 year old mom had RLS during the month of June 2017 and she no longer has it.
Hi there, my mom developed RLS after her doctor added a third diabetes med so we assumed that was the culprit. We stopped the new med but the RLS continued. One doctor said her cholesterol med looks like the culprit so we stopped that too, but that didn’t help. Then she started having RLS during the

Hi everyone, first time on so excuse any errors. I've suffered with under active thyroid now for about six years. Started with just Levothyroxine sodium up to 175mg per day, which didn't work due to a build up of anti bodies. I was sent to a specialist and he prescribed me 20mg liothyronine and reduced

Need help with pharmacology, please.
Can someone help me figure out when I should be taking these meds during the day, i.e., breakfast, lunch, dinner? I'm afraid I may be mixing meds that should't be taken together.

Hi, I am an old time poster
Hi, I was a member of the dilated cardiomyopathy forum at BHF. I signed up there 10 years ago when my mother was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy and left bundle branch block.

GCA meds
Having followed a recent link to the Patient info site, I read that they seem all in favour of aspirin and adding omeprazole to counteract the side effects of the pred and aspirin combination.
