New here 😕
Hello - I'm new here and reaching out in the hope of managing 'early' symptoms that are beginning to make me feel quite low. Reading the entries I have so much empathy and am in awe of the courage and tenacity of those suffering over such long periods. I went to the GP in November with a distinct pain

Mum's battle
Hi all, Mum has suffered from adrenal insufficiency over the past 15 years, as well as pernicious anemia, hypothyroidism, low WBC count and was hospitalised several times with low electrolytes. The electrolyte imbalance was caused by the cortisol acetate supplement she takes. She was numerous doctors

Joint pain
I started on an aromatese inhibitor about a year ago. At first I had some pain and weakness in my right wrist. This eventually went away. I am now having pain in my shoulders but mostly in my knees. I have been pretty active. Now the pain is so tiring and depressing. I got a massage yesterday and

PMR - update on doctor call
Hello lovely folks, thank you for your help yesterday. Spoke to the lady doctor this morning and I am happy with how it went. All my results came back normal and the conclusion was that if it wasn't for my PMR, I am in pretty good health for my age. That aside, she said not to change anything with

Help with test results
So I decided to check my blood before starting a trail of 50mcg of Levothyroxine. I tested at 6.20 am compared to my usual later time of 10am. I’m confused because the morning before I ended up in A&E from taking too many pain killers and they tested my blood around the same time. My results are greatly

Sorry if this is depressing 😞
I feel trapped. I had my laparoscopy surgery in February and I was diagnosed with endometriosis. Since the surgery my pain has leveled up, it’s so much worse and it’s throughout the month, not just when I’m on my period anymore. I feel trapped by this illness, I have maybe one week out of the month where
