Supplements for damaged nerves. Need a recommendation!
I am wondering what can I do to help to cure my nerves. Of course, B12 will be the main drug but are there any other drugs? I know that Alpha Lipoic Acid is worth taking. But taken orally makes my stomach upset. I wonder how about intravenous one? Anybody? B6 I will definitely take it but I need methylated

Effective treatment for Paget's disease of bone
Zoledronate has been repeatedly shown to give excellent control of overactive bone cells in Paget's Disease of Bone and is also effective for pain arising directly from the condition. There is a wealth of evidence to show its benefits. All drugs have risks and it is the minority of patients who suffer

Adrenalin rushes in?
I've had a few weeks where I the daily flushing/nausea/shaking episodes had eased off. But this week, they seemed to be returning. This afternoon, I had a dramatic demonstration that they must surely be related to adrenal dysfunction. The morning had been ordinary, with me simply pacing myself through

Myo-inositol and folic acid
I had my consultation with a gynaecologist on Friday and he said that some of the tests were "suggestive" of PCOS that were just on the border, like, 3.97 instead of 4, and then some were normal, and that based on that he couldn't diagnose PCOS but agreed that I show all the symptoms and advised me to

Sleep aid
I tried Ashwagandha and 3 mg time release melatonin taking Ashwagandha 400 mg at 8 pm (I take Azilect 1 mg 8 am) and melatonin at 10 pm. Instead of sleeping through TV I felt social and talkative not a bit anxious and sleep was restful and restorative. But next day found that after taking 5 mg Isradapine
